Cash home buyers · Greater Los Angeles
Sell your house as-is, for cash, on your timeline.
We're Steve Helps Homeowners, a father-and-son team of local real estate investors. We walk through your home, make a cash offer on the spot, and close on the date you choose. No repairs, no agent fees, no showings.
- No repairs or cleaning
- No agent commissions
- You pick the closing date
Two ways to sell
Listing isn't the only option
Listing with an agent can get you a higher price, and for many homes it's the right call. Selling to a cash buyer trades some of that price for speed, certainty, and a lot less work. Here's how they compare.
| Listing with an agent | Selling to Steve Helps Homeowners | |
|---|---|---|
| Repairs and prep | Often expected before listing | None. We buy it as-is |
| Showings | Open houses and weekend showings | One walkthrough |
| Agent commissions | Usually paid out of your proceeds | None |
| Buyer financing | Can fall through if a loan is denied | Cash, no lender approval |
| Closing date | Depends on the buyer and their lender | You choose it |
| Sale price | Often higher, with more costs and more waiting | A fair cash price in exchange for speed and certainty |
How it works
Three steps, on your schedule
- Step 01
Tell us about the property
Fill out the short form or give us a call. Address, condition, and your timing are enough to start. It takes about two minutes.
- Step 02
We walk through it together
One of us comes out at a time that suits you. No need to clean or fix anything. We look the home over, talk through the numbers, and make you a cash offer on the spot.
- Step 03
Close on the date you pick
Take whatever time you need to decide. If you accept, a licensed escrow and title company handles the paperwork and funds, and we close on the date you choose.
Who we help
When a traditional sale doesn't fit
Most people who call us have a reason a normal listing feels like too much. A few of the most common:
Inherited a property
Settling an estate is a lot to carry. We buy inherited homes and homes in probate, and we work alongside your attorney on timing.
Repairs you don't want to take on
Foundation, roof, plumbing, dated everything. We buy as-is and handle the work after closing.
Tired of being a landlord
Tenant-occupied is fine. We can buy with tenants in place, so you don't have to manage move-outs.
Relocating or downsizing
Moving for work or family? Pick a closing date that lines up with your move instead of waiting on the market.
Divorce or a life change
A clean, simple sale with a fixed closing date can make a hard season a little easier.
Vacant or hard to sell
Empty homes, unusual layouts, or properties that sat on the market. We look at them all.
Who we are
A family business, not a call center
When you contact Steve Helps Homeowners, you talk to the people who will actually buy your home.
Steve Helps Homeowners is Steve Neuman and his son Justin. Steve has spent decades in Los Angeles real estate and has renovated and resold more homes than he can count. Between the two of us, we handle everything ourselves, from the first phone call and the walkthrough to the offer and closing day.
We're investors, and we're upfront about it. We buy homes to renovate and resell, so our offer comes in below full retail value. In return you skip the repairs, the showings, and the commissions, and you get a closing date you can count on. We'll show you how we got to our number.
