In many Nashville neighborhoods, the lot is a big part of what a house is worth. Plenty of small 1940s to 1960s homes sit in neighborhoods where buyers now build new, and a house that needs a lot of work can still sell well. If you own one, have tenants you're done with, or inherited a family home, we'll make you a cash offer as-is.
We buy houses in all 50 states. These are just some of the areas we serve. Don't see your city? We still want to hear from you.
Nashville neighborhoods we buy in
We buy all over Davidson County, including East Nashville, Inglewood, Madison, Old Hickory, Donelson, Hermitage, Antioch, Bordeaux, North Nashville, Whites Creek, The Nations, Sylvan Park, Bellevue and Germantown. Nashville's city and county government are combined, so all of these are part of Metro Nashville. We also buy in surrounding counties, in places like Hendersonville, Mt. Juliet, Smyrna, La Vergne, Brentwood and Franklin.
What we see in Nashville houses
- Older homes on in-demand lots. Small homes with original kitchens, old wiring and tired foundations, often in neighborhoods where new construction is going up next door.
- Storm and flood history. The March 3, 2020 tornado hit North Nashville, Germantown, East Nashville, Donelson and Hermitage, and the May 2010 flood damaged thousands of homes along the Cumberland River and its creeks. Some houses still show it.
- Rentals. Many homes have been rented for years and need updates before they'd show well.
- Two tax districts. Metro Nashville taxes property at different rates depending on whether it's in the Urban Services District or the General Services District. That's worth knowing when you compare offers.
Why Nashville owners sell to us
Some sellers want to skip months of repairs and showings in a busy market. Others inherited a family house in a neighborhood that has changed a lot, and the heirs live in different states. We also hear from landlords and from owners who are behind on payments, where Tennessee's fast foreclosure timeline doesn't leave much room.
See our pages for an inherited house, probate, a house that needs repairs, being a tired landlord, or a vacant house.
Probate, foreclosure and evictions in Nashville
Davidson County estates are handled by the Seventh Circuit Court, which serves as the county's probate court. Homes in Williamson, Sumner, Wilson or Rutherford County go through that county's probate court instead. Evictions are heard in Davidson County General Sessions Court after a 14-day notice for unpaid rent. Our Tennessee page covers foreclosure timing and the transfer tax.
Questions Nashville sellers ask
My house needs a lot of work. Is it worth selling as-is in Nashville?
Often, yes. In many Nashville neighborhoods, buyers are paying for the location, so you may not get back what you'd spend on repairs.
Will you buy a house that still has storm damage?
Yes. You don't need to finish repairs or close out an insurance claim first.
Several of us inherited the house and live in different states. Can we still sell?
Yes. Each heir can usually sign remotely, and we work with the estate's attorney and title company.
