Get your cash offer
Tell us about the property. No obligation, no fees, no pressure.
Thanks — we've got it.
We'll call you within minutes during business hours (or first thing next morning). Want to talk right now?
651-372-2951We close with our own funding.
Every written offer comes with proof of funds. Need a ballpark sooner? We can usually give you a preliminary range within 24 hours of your call — and a firm written offer within 24 hours of seeing the property. We buy with our own bank financing — no waiting on loan approvals, no wholesaling, and no assigning your contract to another buyer. When we sign, we close. In as few as 14 days, or on the date you choose.
How it works
Three simple steps to a cash sale.
No listings, no open houses, no waiting on a buyer's financing. Here's the whole process.
2
Get a firm cash offer
We walk the property once, run real comps and repair numbers, and present your options — usually within 24 hours.
3
Pick your closing date
Accept the offer and choose the date that works for you. Close through a licensed local title company — cash in hand, on your schedule.
Three ways to sell — you pick
Most companies show you one number. We show you three.
Every "we buy houses" company will hand you a single cash offer and hope you take it. We do it differently. After one walkthrough, we can lay out up to three options side by side — with the math behind each — so you can choose what's right for your situation.
1
Sell for cash, as-is.
A firm cash offer with proof of funds. No repairs, no showings, no fees. Close in as few as 14 days, or on your schedule. Best when speed and certainty matter most.
2
Fix it first, pay at closing.
For homes that need light updates — paint, carpet, flooring, fixtures — we can arrange the work up front with nothing out of pocket. The cost is paid from your proceeds at closing, and the refreshed home typically sells for more. Best when you have equity and a few extra weeks.
3
List it as-is.
Because our team includes a licensed Minnesota real estate agent, we can show you exactly what listing your home would net — real comps, real numbers, no guesswork. Best when top dollar matters more than timing.
There's no pressure toward any option — and no obligation to hear all three. Some sellers just want the cash number; others want to see every path. Tell us what's useful and that's what we'll put in writing, starting with a cash offer usually within 24 hours of the walkthrough.
See the math
What the three options actually look like.
Here's a sample side-by-side for a hypothetical Twin Cities house — a 3-bed ranch that's solid but tired: original finishes, worn carpet, dated fixtures, scuffed paint. Listed as-is, it's the kind of home buyers flag as 'needs work.' It would be worth about $315,000 after roughly $18,000 of updates. Your numbers will be different; this is what the comparison looks like.
Sell for cash, as-is
| Cash offer | $225,000 |
|---|---|
| Repairs | $0 |
| Agent commission | $0 |
| Closing costs | $0 — we pay them |
| Estimated net to you | $225,000 |
Close in as few as 14 days — or pick a date months out. Your timeline either way. Take what you want and leave the rest: furniture, junk, anything — we handle it. Any condition accepted. Firm offer with proof of funds — no financing, inspection, or appraisal contingencies.
Fix it first, pay at closing
| Sale price after refresh | $315,000 |
|---|---|
| Repair cost (paid from proceeds at closing) | − $18,000 |
| Estimated commission (example: 6%) | − $18,900 |
| Estimated seller closing costs (~1%) | − $3,150 |
| Estimated net to you | $274,950 |
Roughly 8–10 weeks start to close. Nothing out of pocket — requires sufficient equity. Updated homes also attract more buyers and typically sell faster.
List it as-is
| As-is sale price | $270,000 |
|---|---|
| Estimated commission (example: 6%) | − $16,200 |
| Estimated seller closing costs (~1%) | − $2,700 |
| Typical inspection credits | − $3,000 |
| Estimated net to you | $248,100 |
Roughly 6–8 weeks. Subject to the buyer's financing, inspection, and appraisal.
Notice the cash offer nets the least — we won't pretend otherwise. It exists for when speed, certainty, or the condition of the house matters more than the last dollar. The gap between the other two columns is real: Zillow's 2026 analysis found homes needing work sell about 14% below comparable move-in-ready homes, while remodeled homes command a premium and draw significantly more buyer interest. For a house needing major repairs, the cash gap narrows fast — buyers with mortgages often can't purchase homes in rough condition at all. After one walkthrough, we'll put real numbers on whichever of these options you want to see — just the cash offer, or the full side-by-side.
Illustrative example based on a hypothetical property. Sale prices, repair costs, commissions, and closing costs vary with every home and market; commissions are negotiable and not set by law. Figures shown are estimates before any mortgage payoff, which applies equally to all options. Your written options will use your property's actual numbers. Nothing here is a guarantee of value or proceeds. Market statistics from published Zillow research; local results vary.
Sources: Zonda 2025 Cost vs. Value Report (Minneapolis-area data) — light cosmetic projects typically recoup roughly 90–113% of their cost at resale; Zillow listing research (2024–2026) — homes needing work sold 7–14% below comparable move-in-ready homes, while remodeled homes sold about 3.7% above expectations. Together these explain the example above: the work returns its cost, and the updated home escapes the needs-work discount. Illustrative only; every property differs.
Questions
Frequently asked questions.
How do you calculate your cash offer?
We start with what your home would be worth fully updated, based on real comparable sales. From there we subtract the actual cost of the work it needs, our costs to buy, hold, and resell, and our margin. We show you this math in writing — it's the same underwriting we use on every purchase we make.
Are there any fees or commissions on a cash sale?
No. No agent commissions, no closing costs, no fees of any kind. The offer we make is the amount you receive, minus only your own mortgage payoff and any liens on the property.
What condition does the house need to be in?
Any condition. Full of furniture, decades of belongings, tenant-occupied, storm damage, code violations, unfinished projects — we've seen it and we'll buy it. Take what you want and leave the rest.
How fast can you close?
As few as 14 days, or months out if you need time — you pick the date. We buy with our own funding and provide proof of funds with every written offer, so there's no waiting on bank approvals.
What happens after I submit the form?
We call you within minutes during business hours. On that first call we can usually give you a preliminary range within a day. Then one walkthrough, and your firm written cash offer — the number that doesn't change — typically within 24 hours of the visit. Want to see what fixing-it-first or listing as-is would net? We'll put numbers on those too.
Are you real estate agents or investors?
Both, and we're upfront about it. Parallel North Properties buys houses directly as a principal. Matthew Rich, a member of the company, is a licensed Minnesota real estate salesperson with LPT Realty LLC — which is why we can show you real listing numbers alongside our cash offer, not a guess.
Do I have to accept one of the three options?
No. There's no obligation, no pressure, and no cost for the walkthrough or the written numbers. You can ask for just the cash offer or the full comparison — and some people use our numbers to make a different decision entirely. That's fine with us.
