Chicago's housing stock is old, solid and full of character — which also means a lot of homes come with century-old plumbing, aging boilers, tuckpointing needs and back porches that won't pass a buyer's inspection. Add Cook County's property tax bills and a slow foreclosure process, and plenty of owners just want a simple way out.
OfferPoint Properties buys houses and small multi-unit buildings across Chicago and suburban Cook County for cash. We buy in any condition, with tenants or without, and you never have to make a single repair. You get a clear offer and choose your closing date.
Whatever the reason you're selling, you shouldn't have to fix up the house or wait months for a buyer.
Tired of managing tenants and repairs on a two-flat or three-flat? We buy small multi-family buildings with tenants in place.
Cook County reassessments can push tax bills higher than owners can comfortably carry. We can pay off delinquent taxes at closing.
Open City of Chicago violations or a vacant-building issue? We buy properties with violations and take on the work after closing.
If you've inherited a house through an Illinois estate, we can buy it as-is and work with your attorney once you have authority to sell.
Boilers, knob-and-tube wiring, leaky basements, worn-out roofs — we factor it all in so you don't have to fix anything.
Every situation is different. Tell us about yours and we'll give you an honest answer — even if selling to us isn't the right fit.
Get My OfferThree steps from first call to cash at closing.
Fill out the quick form or call (877) 752-2037. A few details about your Chicago house is all we need to start.
We review recent sales nearby and the repairs needed, then present a fair, no-obligation cash offer — usually within 24 hours.
We close with a reputable Illinois title company on the date you choose. You get paid at closing.
Illinois uses judicial foreclosure, which means the lender must file a lawsuit — in Cook County, foreclosure cases are heard in the Circuit Court of Cook County's Chancery Division. Homeowners generally have reinstatement and redemption rights during the case, and the overall process often takes many months.
That longer timeline gives you room to act. A cash sale at any point before the judicial sale can pay off the mortgage, end the lawsuit, and let you keep any equity left in the property.
Property assessments are handled by the Cook County Assessor's Office. Unpaid property taxes can be sold at the county's tax sale, so if you're behind, it's worth addressing sooner rather than later — we can usually pay those balances at closing.
This is general information, not legal advice. Talk to an Illinois attorney about your specific situation.
We buy houses throughout Cook County, including:
Listing with an agent can get top dollar for a move-in-ready home — but if your house needs work, you're short on time, or you just want certainty, a direct cash sale can put more in your pocket once you add up repairs, commissions, holding costs and months of waiting.
We're happy to help you compare both options honestly.
