Sell your house fast in Petworth, DC
Petworth's porch-front rowhouses have appreciated fast, but appreciation doesn't fix a cracked foundation or a basement that floods every summer. Whether you're a longtime owner cashing out, a landlord done with the DC rental market, or an heir managing a property from out of state, we make direct offers on Petworth houses in any condition.
We buy throughout Park View, 16th Street Heights, Brightwood Park, Grant Circle, and the surrounding Washington County area near the Georgia Avenue corridor.

What's different about selling in Petworth
Many Petworth homes have basement units rented informally over the years. DC requires a basic business license and certificate of occupancy for rentals, and unlicensed units can complicate a traditional sale. We buy properties with unpermitted units regularly — no need to legalize or vacate before selling to us.

Selling a Petworth house: common questions
How fast can you close on a house in Petworth?
Our median closing in the Petworth market is about 22 days from signed contract. If you need longer — for probate, a move, or an estate — we hold the date open at the same price.
Do I need to make repairs before selling my Petworth, DC house?
No. We buy strictly as-is, including houses with structural issues, code violations, or full contents left behind. Our offer already accounts for the work.
Are there fees or commissions when I sell to you?
None. We are the buyer, not an agent, so there is no commission, and we cover standard closing costs. The offer you accept is the amount on your settlement statement, minus any payoff of existing liens.
How do you calculate your offer for a Petworth property?
We start with renovated comparable sales in your immediate neighborhood, subtract realistic repair costs from a single walkthrough, and subtract our margin. We show you all three numbers.
