Cash buyer in Scottsdale, AZ
Sell your Scottsdale house for cash, as-is
Scottsdale is not one neighborhood. A patio home south of Old Town and a house in a north Scottsdale HOA are different sales. If you want a cash buyer instead of a listing, start with the address.
Or call (602) 320-9500. No obligation to sell.
Rick Webb is a licensed Arizona real estate agent. His broker is BMN Real Estate and Referral Services. He does not take listings and does not represent sellers. He buys homes as a principal for his own account: he puts a property under contract to purchase, may assign that purchase contract (his equitable interest) to another buyer, or buys, renovates, and resells. He acts as a buyer, not as the seller's agent. He may assign the contract or resell for a profit. Sellers may wish to consult their own agent or attorney.
Scottsdale houses
What selling in Scottsdale actually involves
South Scottsdale and the blocks around Old Town are tighter lots: older single-family houses, condos, and a fair number of seasonal owners. North Scottsdale, including areas people know as McCormick Ranch, Gainey Ranch, and DC Ranch, is mostly newer construction, larger lots, and homeowners associations with architectural rules and resale paperwork.
A house that sits empty for part of the year still needs insurance, pool care, and someone to meet a repair person. Owners call when they are done managing that from somewhere else, or when the house needs work they do not want to fund before putting it on the market. Rick is the buyer, not your listing agent.
Neighborhoods
Parts of Scottsdale we look at
McCormick Ranch and neighboring HOAs
Planned communities with association rules. A retail sale has to clear resale documents. A sale to us still has to follow the HOA. We do not skip those rules.
North Scottsdale
Larger homes and longer drives for showings. Vacant houses up here are a particular hassle to keep listed. Tell us the community name when you know it.
Scottsdale addresses we look at are often in 85250, 85251, 85257, 85258, 85255, and 85260. If your ZIP is not on that short list and the house is still in Scottsdale, send it anyway.
Situations
Why Scottsdale owners ask for a cash buyer
Seasonal or out-of-state owner
The house is fine, but you are not in Scottsdale often enough to manage showings, a pool, or a tenant.
HOA resale friction
The association paperwork, paint rules, or a pending violation would slow a listing. We still comply with the HOA. We just do not need a parade of weekend buyers.
Divorce or a shared second home
Both sides want a date and a private sale instead of an open house.
Repairs before a luxury listing
The kitchen, the roof, or the pool equipment would have to be redone to compete with updated houses nearby. We can buy it as it stands.
The purchase
How a cash sale works in Scottsdale
- Tell us about the house. The address, the condition, who lives there, and the timing. Most people finish the form in a few minutes.
- Review a cash number. We look at the property and the neighborhood, then follow up with a figure for an as-is sale. It is not a signed offer.
- You decide. If the number works, Rick puts the Scottsdale property under contract as the buyer. He may close himself, assign that purchase contract to another buyer, or buy and later resell. He does not represent you.
- Close on a date you can use. When title, payoff, and both schedules allow it, closing can be in 14 days or less. If you need longer, say so.
FAQ
Questions about selling a Scottsdale house
Do you buy in north Scottsdale and South Scottsdale?
Yes. Send the address whether it is Old Town, South Scottsdale, McCormick Ranch, or farther north. We will say if we can make a cash offer. We do not buy every house.
Are you my Scottsdale agent?
No. Rick Webb is a licensed Arizona agent, and his broker is BMN Real Estate and Referral Services, but he does not take listings and he does not represent you. He buys for his own account. You can hire your own agent or attorney.
Can you buy a Scottsdale condo or a house in an HOA?
Yes. Tell us the community. Association rules still apply to the sale. The offer will be in writing so you can see the price and the closing costs the buyer covers.
What if the Scottsdale house is a winter home?
That is a normal situation here. You do not need to fly in for showings. Share the condition and whether anyone is living there.
How does the cash process work in Scottsdale?
You send the address and a few facts. We follow up with a cash number. If you accept a written contract, Rick buys as a principal. He may close, assign the contract, or buy and later resell. Nothing on the form locks you in.
