How we buy houses, and what you can expect
MGM Capital buys houses directly from their owners across North Jersey. Here's what that includes, in detail.
01
Cash offers on houses as-is
We buy your house in the condition it's in today. No repairs, no cleaning, no staging, and no need to empty it first.
Most houses we buy need something: a roof near the end of its life, a kitchen from another decade, a damp basement, or simply years of deferred upkeep. Selling a house like that on the open market usually means spending money on repairs before listing, or accepting a buyer whose lender may not approve the property. We skip both problems by buying the house as it stands.
After a short walkthrough, we put together a written cash offer and explain how we arrived at the number: what the house needs, and what similar homes nearby have sold for once they've been brought up to date. You can accept it, ask questions, compare it with other options, or say no.
What’s included
- A free, written, no-obligation offer
- No repairs, cleaning, or clean-out required
- Belongings you don't want can stay behind
02
Closing on your timeline
Because we pay with cash, there's no waiting on a buyer's mortgage approval or appraisal. You choose the closing date.
Traditional sales depend on a buyer's financing, which brings appraisals, underwriting, and the risk that a deal falls through weeks in. We pay cash, so none of that stands between an accepted offer and closing day.
That doesn't mean we rush you. Some sellers want to close as soon as the paperwork allows; others need a few months to find their next place, settle an estate, or finish a school year. Tell us the date that works and we'll plan the closing around it. The closing itself takes place with a title company or real estate attorney, the same as any other home sale in New Jersey.
What’s included
- No financing or appraisal contingencies
- A closing date you pick, sooner or later
- Closing handled through a title company or attorney
03
Help with difficult situations
Inherited homes, pre-foreclosure, divorce, relocation, tired landlords, or damaged properties. We buy houses in the situations that make a normal sale hard.
People rarely call us because everything is going smoothly. More often they've inherited a house they can't take on, fallen behind on payments, are dividing a home in a divorce, have to move for work, or are done being a landlord. In each case, the value we offer is the same: one clear number, no preparation, and a date that fits your life.
For inherited and probate properties, we work alongside the executor and estate attorney. For rentals, tenants can stay in place through the sale. For houses with fire, water, or structural damage, we price the repair work into the offer instead of asking you to do it. And if you're facing foreclosure, we'll be honest with you: we're a home buyer, not a lawyer or a housing counselor, and we encourage you to speak with your lender or a HUD-approved counselor about every option before you decide to sell.
What’s included
- Inherited and probate properties
- Pre-foreclosure and behind on payments
- Divorce, relocation, and rental properties
- Fire, water, and structural damage
04
No commissions or fees
We buy directly, so there is no listing agent and no commission. We don't charge service fees on top of our offer.
When you sell through a listing, the price you agree to isn't what you take home. Agent commissions, pre-sale repairs, and concessions after an inspection all come out of it. When you sell to MGM Capital, there's no agent between us and we don't add service fees.
Anything that has to be paid from the sale, such as an existing mortgage, a home equity line, or outstanding property taxes, is paid at closing and itemized on the settlement statement, which you see before you sign.
What’s included
- No listing commission
- No service fees from MGM Capital
- An itemized settlement statement before you sign
05
What happens to the house after
We're fix-and-flip investors. We renovate the homes we buy and put them back on the market as updated, move-in-ready homes.
It helps to know why we can buy houses that need work. MGM Capital is a fix-and-flip real estate investor: after we buy a house, we renovate it and resell it. The repairs that would have been your problem become our project, and a house that was a burden gets a second life on the street.
That's also why our offer reflects the work the house needs. We're transparent about it, and we'll walk you through the repairs we see and the assumptions behind our number.
What’s included
- Homes renovated after purchase
- Offers based on the real work required
- Clear reasoning behind every number
