National City, California · 91950
We buy houses and small buildings in National City for cash
Any condition, any situation, no fees. A written offer within 24 hours and a closing date you choose.
We buy National City houses, duplexes and 2–4 unit buildings as-is for cash in 91950, including tenant-occupied properties. You do not have to deliver the property vacant, and you do not need to serve anyone a notice for us to close.
You do not have to empty the building first
This is the thing that keeps National City owners stuck. The property has tenants, some of them long-term and well under market rent, and every agent tells the owner the same thing: deliver it vacant and you will get more. Between California's just-cause requirements, relocation assistance and the sheer time involved, "deliver it vacant" can mean a year of cost and conflict before the house even hits the market.
We buy occupied. We take the leases as they are, we handle the tenant relationship after closing, and we never ask a seller to displace anyone to make our deal work. If the rents are under market, that shows up in our number — but it does not become your project.
Older stock, small lots, real deferred maintenance
Much of National City was built before 1960 on compact lots, and a lot of it has been added onto informally over the decades. Unpermitted rear units, converted garages, laundry rooms that became bedrooms, and open code enforcement cases are all things we see weekly. They are all things we buy. If there is an active violation, tell us about it — it is far better priced in up front than discovered later.

Selling in National City: your three options
List with a local agent for the highest gross price and a 45 to 75 day timeline plus prep. Sell to us for a lower gross price, no fees, no repairs and a 7 to 21 day close. Or try a national iBuyer, which sits between the two and charges a service fee. Which nets you the most depends on your house's condition and how long you can wait — here is the honest side-by-side, including the cases where we tell you to list.
Questions from National City sellers
My property has tenants who will not leave. Will you still buy it?
Do you buy duplexes and small apartment buildings?
How fast can I sell my house for cash in National City?
Most sellers get a written offer within 24 hours of us seeing the property, and closings typically run 7 to 21 days from an accepted offer. Seven days is realistic when title is clear and there is one owner; longer if there is a probate, a lien to clear, or a payoff demand that a lender is slow to produce. If you need more time, you set the date — a 60- or 90-day close is just as easy for us as a fast one.
How much will you actually pay for my house?
As a rule of thumb, a cash offer on a house needing work lands somewhere around 70% to 85% of what the house would be worth fully renovated, with the exact figure driven by the repair scope. We do not think you should have to take that on faith, so we publish the formula and the assumptions on how we calculate your offer, and every offer we send includes the comparable sales, the repair estimate and the arithmetic.
Are there any fees or commissions?
None. There is no agent commission because no agent is involved, no listing fee, no service fee, and we pay the standard seller-side closing costs including escrow and title. The number we agree on is the number that goes on your settlement statement, minus only your existing loan payoff, any liens, and prorated property taxes.
Do I need to make repairs or clean the house?
No — and please do not. We buy in as-is condition, and money you spend on repairs before selling to us does not come back to you in a meaningfully higher offer. Leave the furniture, the appliances, the garage contents and anything else you do not want to move. Clearing the property is our cost.
