What is a Cash Home Buyer?
A cash home buyer is an individual or company (typically an investor) that purchases properties using their own funds—without relying on banks or lenders. Because they don’t need third-party approvals or inspections, sales move much faster.
How to Find a Cash Home Buyer
Finding a reliable cash home buyer is simple. A quick Google search for “We Buy Houses [Your City] [Your State]” or “Sell My House Fast [Your City] [Your State]” will bring up several options. Be cautious of ads—just because a company pays for top placement doesn’t mean they’re the best choice.
Timeframe: Once we have your information, it’s usually possible for us to offer you a fair price within 24 hours. From there, our cash home buyers can close as fast as 3 weeks… or whenever you choose to close.
Our Offers Are Based On Your Home’s
“After Repair Market Value”
Using this value, we calculate a fair cash offer that reflects the property’s current condition while factoring in necessary repairs and market trends. Here’s how it works!
- Imagine you are in the market to sell your house…
- Think of your home and your neighbor’s home—both identical, except your neighbor made some upgrades.
- Now, imagine your neighbor sold their upgraded home for $300K.
What Does This Mean for Your Offer?
Now we know that if we make the same upgrades to your home after purchasing it, we could sell it for $300K. This After Repair Market Value (ARV) helps us determine a fair offer based on your home’s current condition and the cost of necessary renovations.
The Offer:
Here is an explanation on how we create our offers for you:
[Your Offer] = [After Repair Value] – [Cost Of Repairs] – [Our Selling Costs] – [Our Minimum Profit]
But in order for you to understand this we need to define some terms.
- “As-Is” Value: This is your home’s current market value in its existing condition.
- After Repair Value (ARV): This is what your home would be worth after renovations—just like an HGTV-style home flip!
- Cost of Repairs (COR): These are the estimated costs to fix and update the home after we buy it.
- Our Selling Costs: While we buy homes without agents, we do need to use one when selling after renovations. This includes agent commissions, closing costs, taxes, and holding costs—typically about 10% of the ARV.
- Our Minimum Profit: Like any business, we need to make a profit to keep running, but we keep it as low as possible to ensure we can offer you the best price. Our goal is to complete many fair deals with small profits rather than just a few deals with large profits—so everyone wins!
What does this mean?
Your cash offer is based on a straightforward calculation:
After Repair Value (ARV) – All Costs (Repairs, Selling Expenses, and Profit) = Your Offer
That’s it! The final offer reflects the market value of your home after renovations, minus the costs required to fix it up and resell it. It’s a simple, transparent process—now you’re practically an expert! Still have questions? We’re happy to walk you through it.

Selling Your Georgia Home Can Be A Quick & Easy Process
Martin Legacy Holdings buys houses in and around Georgia (and other areas, too!). We’re not listing your house, we’re buying your home. Because we pay cash and are buying your Georgia home directly from you, we can close quickly (or on your schedule).
When you work with us there are no fees and no commissions like when you list your house with a traditional agent. You never have to worry about any extra costs to sell your house fast coming out of your pocket, or even getting your “market-ready” to sell. We want to buy your house as-is.
No matter how ugly or pretty it is and the location, we buy houses in Georgia in any condition.
What does “as-is” mean?
We buy your Georgia home as-is, meaning you don’t have to worry about doing repairs, fixing your home up, or getting it ready for showings. We’ll handle all repairs, inspections, and more after we purchase your home. We factor this into our offer, of course, but it saves you the money and the headache associated with getting your home ready to sell.
What does an “all-cash offer” mean?
“All-cash” means exactly that – all cash for your Georgia home! Because we are real estate investors who are purchasing your home directly, we don’t rely on traditional financing like retail homebuyers. When you sell to us, there’s no risk of the financing falling through, or closing being delayed. When we make you an offer, that’s the full amount you’ll receive at close.
How fast is a fast closing?
After you send us information about your home, we can make you a no-obligation, fair all-cash offer in as little as 24 hours. Once you accept, we close at a local, reputable title company in as little as 7 days. Compare that to the 30+ days it can take to close when listing your house the traditional way, and the benefits are obvious!
What if I don’t need a fast closing?
At Martin Legacy Holdings, we work on your time frame. If you don’t need a fast closing due to the need to make arrangements, explore your future options, etc., we will schedule the closing on the day that works best for you!
Will I get a low-ball offer?
Our goal is to provide you with the fairest offer possible. Unlike other buyers or the big tech giants, we’re transparent with how we arrive at an offer amount. What we offer is based on what the value of the property may be once we make the necessary improvements and upgrades. We’re entirely transparent with this offer process and happy to walk you through how it works.
Is this even legit?
Yes, it is! The real estate industry is rapidly changing, and thousands of Americans are exploring their options for selling their house the fastest, easiest, and most transparent way. That’s where we come in. We offer an alternative for those homeowners who may not have the time or ability to list their house on the market for top dollar. We’ll work with you to assess your situation, make you a transparent all-cash offer, and close on your timeline.
