The pipes scare lenders. They don't scare us.
Pre-1970s plumbing is a repipe waiting to happen, and we price it as our project: written cash offer in 24 hours, as-is.
Galvanized pipe was the good stuff once. Then it spent sixty years rusting from the inside.
Now it's the line item that flips deals: inspectors flag it, some insurers hesitate, and financed buyers use it to reopen every negotiation.
A cash sale removes the audience. We're cash home buyers for houses with plumbing problems: the repipe goes on our renovation sheet, and your offer arrives in writing without a plumber setting foot in the house. That's the advantage of choosing to sell directly to a local cash buyer instead of navigating inspections and lender pushback.
If any of this sounds like your taps and your paperwork, you're in the right place:
One honest note: we buy the house with its plumbing as it stands. Whether to repipe and list instead is real math, and our written number is the free half of that comparison.

Yes, to the right buyer. Galvanized plumbing is standard-issue in Kansas City homes built before the 1970s; it corrodes from the inside over decades, which is why inspectors flag it and some lenders and insurers get cold feet. None of that applies to a cash sale to us.
Two honest options: repipe first (real money and opened-up walls, then hope the market repays it), or sell as-is to a buyer who was going to repipe anyway. We're the second option, in writing, within 24 hours.
No, it just describes galvanized pipe doing what galvanized pipe does. The repipe is priced into the offer as our future project, not held over you as a defect.
No. One walkthrough tells us what we need; we've seen every stage of this plumbing's life. Sell house as-is with plumbing issues means no reports, no bids, no opened walls on your dime.
Fast enough: a written offer in 24 hours and closing in as little as 7 to 14 days. Insurance pressure is one of the most common reasons people find this page.
Same deal, whole list. We're home buyers who purchase houses needing plumbing repairs and everything around them; see selling a house that needs repairs for the full-list version.
Tell us about the house, rusty water and all. In 24 hours the plumbing becomes a line on our sheet instead of a cloud over yours.
