Frequently Asked Questions

  • How Does the Process Work to Sell My House?

    Selling your house to Hawaii Home Buyers LLC is fast and easy. Simply fill out our short form or give us a call with some basic details about your property. After that, we’ll make you a fair cash offer for your house, often within 24 hours. There’s no obligation to accept, and we handle all the paperwork and closing details. Once you accept the offer, you can close in as little as 7 days—it’s that simple!

  • What Types of Houses Do You Buy?

    We buy houses in any condition, no matter where they’re located or their price range. Whether your house is a fixer-upper, facing foreclosure, or in perfect condition, we’re ready to make a cash offer. From homes that need extensive repairs to vacant properties, we buy homes across Oahu, Maui, Big Island, Kauai, and Molokai. You don’t need to worry about repairs or cleaning—we buy houses as-is.

  • Are You REALTORS™ or Home Buyers?

    Unlike real estate agents, Hawaii Home Buyers LLC is a real estate investment company. We are not REALTORS™—we buy homes directly from homeowners. There’s no listing, no open houses, and no waiting for buyers. We make a fair cash offer and purchase your home directly from you. Best of all, you won’t pay any commissions or fees!

  • Will You Pay a Fair Price for My Property?

    Absolutely. We base our offer on the current market value of your home, its condition, and the location. While we typically offer a price that’s below what you might receive through a traditional listing, we make up for it by eliminating the lengthy waiting period, repair costs, agent commissions, and closing fees. You’ll walk away with cash in hand and none of the hassle of traditional sales.

  • Are There Any Fees or Commissions When I Sell My House to You?

    There are no fees or commissions when you sell your house to Hawaii Home Buyers LLC. Unlike traditional real estate sales where you pay agent commissions (typically 5-6% of the sale price), we don’t charge any fees. Our offer is cash in hand, and we cover the closing costs as well. You’ll receive the full cash amount we offer—no hidden charges.

  • How Are You Different from a Real Estate Agent?

    Real estate agents list properties and wait for buyers, often taking months to close a deal. They charge commissions (usually 5-6% of the sale price) and may require inspections and repairs. In contrast, we are cash home buyers. We make a direct offer and close the deal quickly—usually in as little as 7 days. There’s no waiting for financing, no agent commissions, and no repairs required. You sell your home as-is and get cash quickly.

  • Is There Any Obligation When I Fill Out the Form or Contact You?

    No, there is absolutely no obligation. Once you fill out the form or contact us with your property details, we will review the information and provide you with a fair cash offer. You are under no pressure to accept the offer, and you can choose to decline if it doesn’t meet your needs. We believe in making the process as stress-free as possible—no strings attached!

  • Do I Have to Make Repairs Before Selling?

    No, you don’t need to make any repairs or clean your home before selling to us. We buy houses as-is, meaning you don’t have to spend time or money fixing things up. Whether your home is in need of minor updates or has major damage, we’ll make an offer based on its current condition. You won’t have to worry about contractors or fixing up the property—just sell it as it is!

  • What Happens After I Accept Your Offer?

    Once you accept our fair cash offer, we will schedule the closing at a time that works best for you. We’ll handle all the paperwork, and we’ll work with a title company to ensure everything is processed smoothly. The best part? You can choose the closing date—whether you need to move quickly or want to take your time, we’ll accommodate your timeline. At closing, you’ll receive cash for your property!

  • Will My Information Be Kept Confidential?

    Yes, your privacy is important to us. Any information you share with us is kept confidential. We are a trusted, local business and operate with the utmost professionalism. Rest assured, your details will only be used to make an offer for your property and will not be shared with any third parties.
