How the process works

Timeline: After you share a few details about your property and situation, we’ll quickly start putting together a personalized offer. If you like the numbers, we can often close in as little as 7 days. If you need more time, we’ll move at the pace that works best for you.

Step 1: Contact AmeriKey Homebuyers LLC

Reach out and tell us about your property, your current situation, and what you want from the sale so we can see how to best help.

Step 2: Get a Fair Offer

We’ll review your information and present you with a clear, fair offer. In many cases, we can walk you through the numbers and share an offer during our first phone call.

Step 3: Review and Decide

Look over your options, ask any questions, and decide what’s best for you and your family. There’s never any pressure or obligation.

Step 4: Close and Get Paid

Once you accept, we handle the paperwork, work with the title company, and close in a matter of days or on the date you choose so you can get paid and move forward.

Work with Us

No fees – No commissions


Unlike listing a house with a traditional agent, we charge no fees and no commissions—what we offer is what you keep at closing.


You never have to worry about surprise costs coming out of your pocket just to sell your house fast or avoid foreclosure pressure.


You don’t have to stress about getting your house “market-ready”—no showings, open houses, or long repair lists.


We want to buy your house as-is, even if it needs work, is vacant, or you’re behind on payments.


No matter how ugly or pretty it is and no matter the location, we buy houses in Columbus in any condition so you can move on sooner.

We make it easy

Don’t worry about fixing anything or deep cleaning your house again and again to get it ready for showings.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does “as-is” mean?

We buy your Columbus home as-is, meaning you don’t have to do repairs, updates, or cleanups to get it ready for buyers. After we purchase your house, we’ll handle inspections, repairs, and improvements. We factor this work into our offer, but it saves you the cash, time, and headaches that come with fixing a property before selling.

What does an “all-cash offer” mean?

“All-cash” means exactly that—all cash for your Columbus home. Because we are real estate investors buying directly from you, we don’t depend on traditional bank financing. When you sell to us, there’s no loan approval risk or last-minute delays. When we make you an offer, that’s the amount you’ll receive at closing, minus any standard closing costs you choose to pay.

How fast is a fast closing?

After you send us information about your home, we can usually make you a no-obligation, fair all-cash offer in as little as 24 hours. Once you accept, we work with a local, reputable title company and can close in as little as 7 days. Compared to the 30+ days (or more) it often takes to close with a traditional listing, the difference in speed and certainty is clear.

What if I don’t need a fast closing?

At AmeriKey Homebuyers LLC, we work on your time frame. If you don’t need to close right away because you’re coordinating a move, dealing with foreclosure timelines, or exploring next steps, we’ll set the closing date for when it works best for you.

Will I get a lowball offer?

Our goal is to provide you with a strong, fair offer that makes sense for both sides. Unlike some buyers or big tech companies, we’re open about how we arrive at our offer. We look at what the property should be worth after repairs, subtract the cost of improvements and a reasonable margin, and share those numbers with you. We’re happy to walk you through this process step-by-step.

Is this even legit?

Yes. The way people sell houses in Ohio is changing, and many homeowners now choose a direct sale when they need speed, simplicity, or help with a problem property. That’s where we fit in. We offer a clear alternative for owners who don’t have the time, money, or desire to list on the market. We’ll review your situation, make a transparent all-cash offer, and close on the timeline that works for you.
