Sell a House That Needs Repairs — Hattiesburg, MS

This is the trap that catches most sellers off guard. A financed buyer needs the house to pass inspection and appraisal. If the roof is at the end of its life or there is a foundation issue, the lender will not fund the loan — and the buyer cannot pay for the repair before closing, because they do not own the house yet.

So the deal falls apart, the listing goes back on the market with days accumulating, and the next buyer's agent asks why it fell through. In June 2026, 168 of the 544 actively listed homes in the Hattiesburg metro had already reduced their price.

Meanwhile you are still paying the mortgage, the taxes, the insurance and the utilities on a house you are trying to leave.

There is no lender in our purchase, so there is no appraisal condition and no inspection contingency. The repair list does not have to be solved before we can buy.

You do not get quotes, hire contractors, supervise work or front any money. We price the house as it stands today.

Nothing needs to be cleaned, staged or emptied. We have seen the inside of a lot of houses and yours will not surprise us.
