Selling a House During Divorce As-Is Is Simple and Private

Divorce is hard enough. Getting the house sold shouldn’t add stress. Sonoma Home Buyers gives you a fair, written cash offer within 24 hours of a quick walk-through, so you can sell as-is and move forward. You can sell without repairs, showings, or weeks of unnecessary back-and-forth.

Fastest close: as little as 14 days, on your timeline.

Costs: No commissions or hidden fees on a direct sale. We cover *standard closing costs.

*City or county transfer taxes may apply.

Local people. Honest help. A clean break.

What We Solve in Divorce Sales

• One party wants to sell, the other wants a quick exit
• Different move-out timelines or privacy concerns
• Behind on payments or worried about missed mortgage dues
• Repairs needed (roof, foundation, termites, outdated systems) but no one wants to manage contractors
• Whole house of belongings? Please take what you want, and we’ll handle the rest
• Out-of-area spouse or limited availability to meet

For your peace of mind, we maintain neutral, professional communication, coordinate with both parties (and their attorneys, if necessary), and route paperwork through a reputable local title/escrow company.

We’re not attorneys and don’t provide legal advice. However, we work smoothly alongside your counsel and escrow to keep the sale compliant.

Why a Direct, As-Is Sale Helps During Divorce

• No showings or open houses during a sensitive time
• No repairs, clean-up, or staging — we buy the home as-is after a quick walk-through
• Certain timeline: close in ~2–3 weeks, or set a later date that works for both of you
• Simple paperwork: e-sign available; separate communications as requested
• Transparent numbers: we explain every line of the offer

If we believe a traditional listing would clearly net you more without adding stress, we’ll tell you.

How We Price (Plain and Simple)

• After-repair value (ARV): what similar nearby homes sell for
• Repair estimate: realistic costs to bring the home to market standards
• Holding/resale costs: taxes, insurance, utilities, and risk while we prepare the property
• Reasonable margin: what we need to make the project work

Most importantly, you’ll see the math behind the offer. No bait-and-switch. No last-minute deductions.

Our 3-Step Process

1. Tell us about the property. Share the address, basic condition, and any timing needs. Let us know if you prefer separate communications.
2. Quick, in-person walk-through. No judgment. Just a look at the property so our numbers are accurate. No repairs, no showings, no lender appraisals or buyer repair requests.
3. Fair, written cash offer within 24 hours

Review it on your timeline. If it works, we open escrow and close in as little as 14 days, or on the date you choose.

Local, Licensed, and Low-Pressure

We’re licensed California real estate professionals and local investors. We meet you face-to-face, walk the property, and keep our word. Our goal is a calm, confidential experience that helps both parties move forward.

Quick FAQs for Divorce Home Sales

Q: Do both parties need to sign?
A: In most cases, yes. Title/escrow will guide who must sign based on how the property is vested and any court orders.

Q: Can you communicate with us separately?
A: Yes. We can coordinate separate calls/emails, loop in attorneys if requested, and keep communication neutral.

Q: Do we need to finish repairs first?
A: No. We buy as-is after a quick walk-through. This means no repairs, staging, or showings for our clients.

Q: What if the mortgage is behind?
A: Past-due amounts are typically paid from sale proceeds at closing. You shouldn’t need to bring cash to the table.

Q: How fast can we close?
A: As fast as 14 days once the title is clear and the required signatures are in. Many choose 7–21 days, or a later date that fits both schedules.
