Common Sacramento Situations
We see these often. Each one has a guide with more detail.
You inherited a house
Under Prop 19, an inherited home generally keeps its tax base only if a child makes it a primary residence within one year. Many heirs who live elsewhere choose to sell.
Selling an inherited houseYour home needs repairs
About half of Sacramento County homes were built in 1980 or earlier, per Census data. We often buy older homes as-is, so repairs can stay with us.
Selling a house that needs repairsYou have military orders
Beale Air Force Base, about 40 miles north, is home to the 9th Reconnaissance Wing. A cash sale can help you plan your closing around a PCS date.
Selling before a military moveYou own a rental
The City of Sacramento's Tenant Protection and Relief Act covers many older multifamily rentals. We often buy rentals with tenants in place, so ask an attorney about your lease.
Selling a rental propertyYou are behind on payments
In California, a notice of sale usually cannot come until at least three months after a notice of default is recorded. That window can leave time to compare options.
Selling a house in pre-foreclosureInsurance costs are changing your plans
The California FAIR Plan's average rate rose 29.1% on Oct. 15, 2026, and some high-risk areas saw more. A cash sale is one path some owners consider.
How a cash sale worksThe house is vacant
An empty house still has bills, upkeep and insurance. We often buy vacant homes as-is and can work around your schedule for the walkthrough.
Selling a vacant houseYour listing expired
Many Sacramento homes sell fast, but every house is different. A cash offer can be a simple next step if your listing did not sell.
Selling after your listing expiredSelling Your House As Is in Sacramento
As is means you sell the house in the condition it is in today. Here is what that usually covers, and what still applies.
What you can leave as is
- Repairs, an older roof or aging systems
- Dated kitchens and bathrooms
- Cleaning, painting and staging
- Showings and open houses
Why Sacramento owners sell as is
- An older home that needs work. About half of Sacramento County homes were built in 1980 or earlier, per Census data.
- An inherited house you do not want to fix up
- A rental with tenants in place
- Rising insurance costs. The FAIR Plan's average rate rose 29.1% on Oct. 15, 2026.
What still applies
Selling as is changes who handles repairs, not your disclosure duties. Most California sellers still give a Transfer Disclosure Statement (Civil Code 1102) and natural hazard disclosures (Civil Code 1103), unless an exemption applies.
As-Is Cash Sale or Listing?
Both work. The right one depends on your timeline and the condition of the house.
| Topic | Cash sale to us | Listing with an agent |
|---|---|---|
| Repairs and prep | Usually none. Sell as is. | Repairs, cleaning and staging are common |
| Showings | Usually one walkthrough | Showings and open houses |
| Time before escrow | No time on market | Sacramento median: 25 days on market |
| Buyer financing | Cash, no lender approval needed | Most buyers need a loan and an appraisal |
| Closing date | You help choose it | Set around the buyer's loan timeline |
| Agent commission | None | Typically paid at closing |
| Best for | Speed, certainty, or a house that needs work | Move-in-ready homes when time isn't a factor |

California Rules Worth Knowing
The basics for selling a home in Sacramento County. General information, not legal or tax advice.
County and city transfer tax
Sacramento County charges $0.55 per $500 of value under Revenue and Taxation Code 11911. Homes in the City of Sacramento also owe a city tax of 0.275% (City Code 3.16.020).
Who pays transfer tax
The Sacramento County Clerk-Recorder says either the buyer or the seller can pay, by mutual agreement. Your purchase contract sets the terms, so review it with an escrow officer.
Seller disclosures
Most sellers give a Transfer Disclosure Statement, even in an as-is sale. Civil Code 1102.2 exempts some transfers, such as probate court sales and trust or estate administration.
Foreclosure timeline
Under Civil Code 2924c, a notice of sale cannot come earlier than three months after the notice of default. Owners can usually reinstate until five business days before the sale.
Sacramento Seller Questions
Straight answers on how a cash sale works here.
Who makes the offer on my house?
We do. Cash Offer Company buys houses in Sacramento County. Requesting an offer is free and there's no obligation.
Can I sell my house as is in Sacramento?
Yes. We often buy Sacramento homes as is, including older homes that need work. You can usually skip repairs, cleaning and showings, and the walkthrough helps us understand the condition.
How do I sell my house fast in Sacramento?
Request a cash offer, talk with us about the property, and review a written offer after a quick walkthrough. Then choose your closing date. A cash sale skips the loan approval and appraisal a financed buyer needs.
How fast can I close?
Timing depends on title and escrow. Many cash sales close faster than a financed sale, and you can often ask for the date that suits you.
Is there a city transfer tax in Sacramento?
Yes. The Sacramento County Clerk-Recorder says the City of Sacramento is the only city in the county with its own transfer tax. It is 0.275% of the price, on top of the county tax.
Do I still give disclosures in an as-is sale?
In most cases, yes. Selling as-is changes who handles repairs, not the disclosure rules. A real estate attorney can confirm what applies to you.
Can I sell a house with tenants in it?
Often, yes. We buy many rentals with tenants in place. State law and the City of Sacramento's tenant rules may apply, so check with an attorney first.
Can I sell if I received a notice of default?
In many cases, yes. California law sets a waiting period between the notice of default and the notice of sale. Talk with your lender or a housing counselor about your timeline.
What areas do you cover?
Requests come from across Sacramento County, from Natomas and Elk Grove to Folsom and the Delta. Coverage can vary by location.
