Your Kennewick house sold in 7–14 days, as-is, for cash
If you’re facing a Hanford contractor relocation, an inherited house in Benton County, or a trustee’s sale date on the calendar — here’s how this works.
The short version: Submit your address above. You get a cash offer within 24 hours. Pick a closing date from 7 to 14 days out — or longer if you need it. No repairs, no agent commission (5–6% you keep), no cleaning required. We buy as-is.
The Kennewick situations we see most often
We buy houses in any condition, but the situations that come up repeatedly in the Tri-Cities market:
- DOE and Hanford contractor relocations — federal cleanup contracts run on 5-year cycles, and when assignments change, start dates don’t wait 90 days for a conventional sale
- Inherited properties in Benton County — agricultural estates often include a family home alongside orchards or farmland, and the heirs disagree on what to do with it
- Foreclosure — Washington’s non-judicial process under RCW 61.24 runs faster than most sellers expect, and the window to sell before the auction is shorter than it looks
- East Kennewick ranchers with deferred maintenance — 1960s and 1970s homes along Edison Street and Columbia Drive where condition issues would kill FHA or VA financing
What happens step by step
You submit the address above. Someone calls you within 24 hours with a cash number. That number already prices in the as-is condition — we absorb the repair cost, so you don’t carry it.
If the number works, you sign a simple purchase agreement and name your closing date. As fast as 7 days. Or 30 or 45 if you need time to move.
At closing, you walk out with cash. No agent commission. No closing costs charged to you. No number that drops at the table.
Washington’s foreclosure timeline in Benton County
Washington runs non-judicial foreclosure under RCW 61.24. The lender issues a Notice of Default, waits 30 days, then records a Notice of Trustee’s Sale. From that notice you have 90 days until the auction.
Total window from Notice of Default to gavel: about 120 days. The Foreclosure Fairness Act (RCW 61.24.163) gives owner-occupants the right to request mediation — that adds 30 to 60 days, but doesn’t halt the process. Once the trustee’s sale completes in Washington, there is no redemption right. The house is gone.
Benton County foreclosure filings are recorded through the Benton County Superior Court and available at benton.wa.gov. If you have a Notice of Trustee’s Sale in hand, the date is fixed. Selling before that auction is still possible — but the window to close a cash sale is 2 to 3 weeks, so the earlier you call, the more options remain.
Canyon Lakes, East Kennewick, and the houses that don’t sell on the open market
Canyon Lakes golf course homes from the late 1980s and early 1990s look solid from the curb, but aging HVAC systems, aging pool equipment, and roof ages that approach or exceed 25 years create FHA appraisal conditions. VA buyers — common in a DOE contractor community — lose financing over condition flags even when the price is right.
Properties along Columbia Drive and in lower East Kennewick carry FEMA Special Flood Hazard Area designations. Flood insurance in those zones runs $3,000–$8,000 per year. That premium pushes the effective monthly cost past most buyers’ debt-to-income limits, which eliminates the financed buyer pool. We buy with cash, so flood zone designation doesn’t change anything about our offer.
Older ranchers in the Lincoln Avenue and Edison Street corridors — 1960s slab-on-grade construction with original galvanized plumbing and single-pane aluminum windows — typically fail VA inspection conditions. Washington’s VA population is substantial, and losing VA buyers cuts the available pool roughly in half.
Inherited property in Benton County
Washington’s small estate affidavit threshold under RCW 11.62.010 is $100,000 — higher than Tennessee’s $50,000 threshold. If the estate value falls below that, you can transfer the property without a full probate proceeding.
For larger estates, Benton County probate runs through Benton County Superior Court. The timeline is typically 4 to 8 months for a straightforward estate. Selling an inherited house doesn’t require probate to be complete in all cases — an executor with independent authority can sell before the estate closes.
When multiple heirs disagree, a cash sale often resolves it faster than an open market listing would: one closing, one disbursement, no showings while the family debates.
When you should not sell to us
If your Kennewick house is in clean condition, you have 60 days or more to work with, and the Tri-Cities market is active in your price range — you will net more with an agent than with us.
Our offer reflects the as-is condition and the certainty premium. If your house doesn’t need that, the traditional listing route is the financially smarter call, and we’ll tell you that directly.
The sellers who benefit from our offer are the ones where speed, condition, or a complicated title situation make a conventional sale impractical or too slow.
Other Washington cities we buy in
We buy throughout eastern Washington, including Spokane and Yakima. Washington’s non-judicial foreclosure process is the same across the state — our Washington page covers it in full.
