For California homeowners in any situation
Sell your house as is, on your timeline.
I buy houses directly from the people who own them, so there are no showings, no repairs and no agent fees, just a clear written offer you can take your time with, ask about, or turn down.
- No repairs or cleaning, leave what you don't want
- Close in as little as 10 days, or on your date
- One person to talk to from first call to closing: me
Your options, side by side
What's the best way to sell your house?
Answer five quick questions and see every realistic path for your situation, how long each one usually takes against your deadline, and what you'd need to get ready, even if the best fit isn't selling to me.
How it works
Three steps, and you're in control of each one
Tell me about the house
Share the address and a little about your situation, online or by phone. It takes about a minute.
See it once, get a written offer
I walk through the house at a time that works for you, then send a written cash offer and explain how I got there.
Close in as little as 10 days
If you say yes, a licensed title and escrow company handles the closing in as little as 10 days, or on a later date you choose, and you take only what you want.
An honest comparison
Cash offer or listing?
Listing with an agent often brings a higher price, and for some houses it's the right call. A cash sale trades some of that price for speed, certainty and no work. Here's how they compare.

Who you'll talk to
Hi, I'm Brandon
I'm Brandon Whitley. I moved my family from Kansas to California, and like a lot of people here I learned fast how stressful a house can get when life doesn't go to plan.
I started BWI Offer to give homeowners a simple, honest way to sell, one person to talk to, a written offer with the numbers explained, and no pressure to say yes.
I'm a direct buyer, not a real estate agent. I don't list homes or represent sellers, I'm the one buying, and if another option fits you better I'll tell you.

Questions
Common questions
Are you a real estate agent?
No. I'm a direct buyer. I don't list houses or represent you, I'm the one making the offer, and you're always free to talk with an agent or attorney before you decide.
Is there any cost or obligation?
No. Asking for an offer is free and you can say no. If you do sell to me, you pay no commission, and I pay the closing costs.
How do you decide on my offer?
I look at what similar homes nearby have sold for, what the house needs, and my costs to fix and resell it. I'll walk you through the numbers so you understand where the offer comes from.
Who handles the closing?
A licensed, independent title and escrow company. They hold the money, pay off any mortgage or liens, and send you your proceeds.
Will my offer be lower than listing?
Usually, yes. A cash sale trades some price for speed, certainty and no repairs, commissions or showings. If listing makes more sense for your house, I'll tell you.
