Sonoma County's housing market has been shaped by two major forces in recent years: wildfire damage and the resulting insurance crisis, and the ongoing pressure on older housing stock that predates the wine country boom. The 2017 Tubbs Fire and 2019 Kincade Fire left thousands of properties with damage, complicated insurance claims, and title issues that make traditional sales difficult or impossible. We buy fire-damaged and fire-affected properties as-is and navigate those complications after closing.
Inherited properties are common in Santa Rosa and throughout Sonoma County. Long-term residents who purchased decades ago before the wine country premium emerged have left estates with significant value but properties that often need substantial updating. We work with personal representatives and estate attorneys through the Sonoma County Superior Court probate process, including both independent administration and court-confirmation sales.
The insurance crisis in Sonoma County is a specific challenge that has made traditional listings more difficult for many sellers. Properties that have lost their insurance coverage, are in high fire-risk zones, or cannot obtain new coverage create complications that conventional buyers and their lenders cannot navigate. We buy these properties directly for cash — no lender, no insurance requirement.
We serve all of Santa Rosa City and Sonoma County — central Santa Rosa, Rincon Valley, Northeast Santa Rosa, West Santa Rosa, as well as Petaluma, Rohnert Park, Cotati, Sebastopol, Windsor, Healdsburg, and surrounding communities. If you own property in Sonoma County and want a direct cash offer, we are ready to move on your timeline.

Frequently Asked Questions
How fast can you close on my Santa Rosa house?
We can close in as little as 7 days. However, we work on your timeline — if you need 30 or 60 days, that works too. There are no lender delays or financing contingencies involved in a cash sale.
Do I need to make repairs before selling?
No repairs needed. We buy Santa Rosa houses in any condition — foundation issues, fire damage, water damage, outdated homes, code violations, or properties that just need major updating. We handle everything after closing.
Are there any fees or commissions?
Zero fees, zero commissions. The cash offer we make is the amount you receive at closing. We even cover typical closing costs. There is no obligation to accept our offer.
How do you determine your offer price?
We look at recent comparable sales in your specific Santa Rosa neighborhood, the property's current condition, any repairs needed, and the cost to resell. We aim to make a fair, transparent offer and will walk you through exactly how we arrived at the number.
What areas in Santa Rosa do you serve?
We buy throughout Santa Rosa City and Sonoma County — central Santa Rosa, Rincon Valley, West Santa Rosa, and surrounding communities including Petaluma, Rohnert Park, Windsor, and Healdsburg.
My house is going through probate in Sonoma County Superior Court. Can you still buy it?
Yes. We work with probate properties regularly and understand the court process. We work directly with your estate attorney or personal representative throughout. If the estate qualifies for independent administration, we can often close considerably faster.
My Santa Rosa property was affected by wildfire or has fire damage. Can you buy it?
Yes. We regularly buy fire-damaged and wildfire-affected properties in Sonoma County. We buy as-is, navigate the insurance and title complications after closing, and do not require any remediation before purchase.
My property cannot get homeowners insurance due to fire risk zone. Is that a problem?
Not at all. We buy for cash — no lender, no insurance requirement. Properties in high fire-risk zones or that cannot obtain coverage are situations we handle regularly in Sonoma County.
