Why Homeowners Choose Us
We Buy Houses Across Sonoma County
Sonoma County stretches from the Pacific coast through rolling wine country to the communities along the Highway 101 corridor, offering a quality of life that balances rural character with urban amenities. With approximately 488,000 residents and a median home price around $800,000, Sonoma represents a housing market still recovering from the devastation of the 2017 Tubbs Fire and the 2019 Kincade Fire — events that destroyed thousands of homes and fundamentally reshaped the county's real estate and insurance landscape.
The fire legacy dominates Sonoma County real estate in ways that extend far beyond the burn scars. Insurance costs have skyrocketed county-wide, with properties in fire-prone areas seeing premiums increase 200-400% or more. Several national carriers have withdrawn from the market, forcing homeowners onto the California FAIR Plan. For sellers, this means buyers face higher carrying costs, lenders impose stricter requirements, and transactions that once closed smoothly now encounter insurance-related delays and complications.
Fast Home Buyer California navigates these challenges by purchasing homes with cash — eliminating the financing contingencies and insurance requirements that slow or prevent traditional transactions. We hold California DRE License #02006033 and maintain a BBB A+ rating. Whether your property is a wine country estate near Healdsburg, a suburban home in Rohnert Park, or a coastal property in Bodega Bay, we present fair cash offers within 24 hours and can close in as few as 7 days.
Beyond fire risk, Sonoma County homeowners face selling challenges common to mixed urban-rural markets. Properties on larger parcels often have septic systems and wells. Agricultural adjacency brings right-to-farm notifications. Older homes in Santa Rosa, Petaluma, and Sebastopol carry the maintenance needs of their 1950s-1970s construction era. And the county's tourism-driven economy means seasonal employment patterns that affect the local buyer pool. Our cash purchase model simplifies all of these variables.

Cities We Serve in Sonoma County
We buy houses in every city across Sonoma County. Whether you're in a large city or small community, we'll make you a fair cash offer.
Petaluma
Petaluma blends historic downtown charm with suburban neighborhoods and agricultural surroundings, attracting families and commuters along the Highway 101 corridor. The city's older homes near downtown and in neighborhoods like McNear's Landing often carry deferred maintenance, and newer subdivisions on the city's eastern edge are reaching the age where systems need replacement. We buy Petaluma homes in any condition — from Victorian-era properties near the river to ranch homes throughout the city's established neighborhoods.
Rohnert Park
Rohnert Park is a planned community built primarily in the 1960s and 1970s, with a distinctive lettered-section layout that creates identifiable neighborhoods. This housing stock — now 50-60 years old — increasingly needs roof replacements, plumbing updates, and system modernization. Sonoma State University's presence provides rental demand, but sellers of homes needing work face competition from updated listings in a market where buyers have growing leverage. We purchase Rohnert Park homes regardless of condition, offering sellers a clean alternative to costly pre-sale renovations.

Frequently Asked Questions — Sonoma County
Common questions from Sonoma County homeowners about our cash home buying process.
How fast can you close on a Sonoma County home?
+
We can close in as few as 7 days. In a county where traditional sales now average 69 days on market — the longest in the Bay Area — followed by 30-45 days of escrow, our cash process saves sellers three to four months. This speed is particularly valuable for fire-affected property owners, estates, and sellers facing financial deadlines.
Do you buy homes in Sonoma County fire zones?
+
Yes. The Tubbs Fire, Kincade Fire, and ongoing wildfire risk have reshaped Sonoma County real estate. We purchase properties regardless of fire zone designation, fire history, or insurance status. Our cash purchase eliminates the insurance procurement barriers that delay or prevent traditional sales throughout the county.
What about fire-damaged properties in Sonoma County?
+
We buy fire-damaged properties throughout Sonoma County, including parcels where homes were destroyed in the 2017 or subsequent fires. Whether your property has a partially damaged structure, a cleared lot, or a home with smoke damage, we can evaluate and make a cash offer. We handle the complexity of fire-damaged real estate so you don't have to navigate insurance claims and rebuilding decisions.
Why is the Sonoma County market slowing down?
+
Homes are averaging 69 days on market, up from 54 days last year. Rising insurance costs, higher mortgage rates, and increased inventory have shifted conditions toward buyers. Fire-rebuilt homes in Santa Rosa also create new competition for sellers of older unrenovated properties. Our cash offer provides certainty regardless of these market headwinds.
Do you buy homes with septic and well systems in Sonoma County?
+
Yes. Many properties outside the Highway 101 corridor rely on septic systems and well water. These systems require inspections that can reveal costly issues and delay traditional sales. We purchase homes with septic and well systems in any condition — functioning, failing, or uninspected.
What areas of Sonoma County do you serve?
+
We buy homes throughout Sonoma County including Petaluma, Rohnert Park, Santa Rosa, Cotati, Sebastopol, Windsor, Healdsburg, Cloverdale, Sonoma, and unincorporated communities. We also purchase properties in the Russian River area and coastal communities, though our primary focus is the Highway 101 corridor where most county residents live.
