The Process
How the Homebuying Process Works
Four steps stand between you and a closed sale. No surprises, no delays — just a clear path from first contact to cash in hand.
Contact Harvey Buys Houses
Call or fill out the form. Tell us about your home, your situation, and what you need from the sale. We listen — no scripts, no pressure, no obligation to move forward.
Get a Fair Cash Offer
We make an offer quickly — sometimes right on the first call. We research your property using real local market data so the number is fair, transparent, and comes with a full explanation.
Review and Decide
Take the time you need. Review the offer, talk to your family, weigh your options. No deadlines imposed on you, no pressure tactics. The decision is entirely yours.
Close and Get Paid
Accept and we handle everything — title, escrow, all paperwork. Close in as little as 7 days, or pick a date that fits your life. Cash at the closing table.
Why Choose Us
Local Cash Homebuyers in Richmond You Can Trust
We’re not a listing service. We’re not going to put your home on the MLS and wait for a buyer. We are the buyer — which means we can close fast, pay cash, and cut out every middleman cost between you and a clean, completed sale.
No Fees — Ever
No agent commissions. No closing costs charged to you. No hidden charges at the table. The offer we present is the exact number you receive at closing.
We Work On Your Timeline
Fast close in 7 days? Done. Need 45 or 60 days to sort things out first? Done. Your schedule drives the process — not ours. We’ve accommodated every kind of timeline.
Buy in Any Condition
Don’t clean. Don’t repair. Don’t stage. We buy houses as-is — fixer-uppers, fire damage, water damage, inherited properties, hoarder homes. All of it.
Transparent All-Cash Offers
No financing contingencies. No bank delays. No deals that collapse at the last minute. Real cash — and we explain exactly how we arrived at your number, every time.
Zero Costs to You
No Fees. No Commissions. More Money in Your Pocket.
Unlike listing with a traditional agent, selling your home to Harvey Buys Houses means zero extra costs come out of your pocket at closing.
- No agent commissions — keep the full offer amount, nothing deducted at closing
- No repairs or cleaning required — we want your house exactly as it is right now
- No more holding costs — stop paying utilities, property taxes, insurance, and mortgage payments on a home you're ready to leave
- No buyer showings — no cleaning your house again and again for strangers walking through
- No financing risk — cash deals don't fall through at the last minute the way financed offers do

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about selling your Richmond home to Harvey Buys Houses.
What does “as-is” mean?
Selling as-is means you sell the property in its current condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no updates required from you. Harvey Buys Houses buys homes as-is in any condition. Whatever shape the property is in, that’s the shape we buy it in. You don’t spend a dollar preparing it.
What does an "all-cash offer" mean?
An all-cash offer means we purchase your home using our own funds — no bank, no mortgage, no financing approval required. This eliminates the risk of deals falling through at the last minute and allows us to close on your timeline, often in as little as 7 days.
How fast can you close on a house?
We can close in as little as 7 days once an offer is accepted. If you need more time — 30, 45, or 60 days — we accommodate that too. Your timeline drives the closing date, not ours.
What if I don’t need a fast closing?
No problem at all. We work entirely on your schedule. If you need a few extra weeks or months before closing, we’ll set the date accordingly — no pressure, no arbitrary deadline imposed on you.
Will I get a lowball offer?
No. Our offers are based on real local market data, comparable sales in your specific area, and the actual current condition of your property. We walk you through how we arrived at the number — it’s transparent, not a mystery figure pulled from nowhere.
Is this even legit?
Yes. Harvey Buys Houses is a verified real estate solutions company with 40+ five-star reviews on Google and Facebook from real homeowners. You can read every review on our reviews page (/reviews). We’ve purchased 200+ homes and counting.
