How does selling my home to Gordon actually work?

You reach out by phone, text, or form. Gordon has a brief conversation with you about your home and your situation. He visits the property and presents a cash offer within 24 hours. If the offer works for you, you pick a closing date and receive your cash at closing.

How quickly can we close?

As fast as 7 days in most cases. Because Gordon pays cash there are no lenders, no appraisals, and no financing contingencies slowing things down.

What does "as-is" actually mean?

It means you sell the home exactly the way it is right now. You don't make a single repair. Whatever condition the home is in — that's the condition Gordon buys it in. No cleaning, no staging, no updates required.

Do I have to be present at closing?

Not necessarily. Closing is handled through a local Placer County title company and can often be arranged to accommodate your schedule, including remote signings.

How does Gordon determine what to offer for my home?

Gordon's offer is based on three main factors — the current market value of comparable homes in your area, the condition of your property and the cost of any repairs it needs, and local Placer County market conditions right now. He walks you through every part of the number.

Will I get a fair price?

Gordon's offer won't match what you might get listing on the MLS in perfect conditions — and he'll be upfront about that. But when you factor in what you save — agent commissions, closing costs, repair expenses, and carrying costs — the difference is often much smaller than sellers expect.

Is there any obligation to accept the offer?

None whatsoever. Getting a cash offer from Gordon is completely free and carries zero obligation. Take it, leave it, or think about it — no pressure either way.

Are there any fees or costs I need to pay?

None. Gordon charges no commissions, no agent fees, and no closing costs. What he offers is what you receive at closing.

Is Gordon a real local person?

Yes. Gordon Cuffe is a real person who has lived in Placer County most of his life and has been buying homes in the Auburn area for over 15 years. When you call his number you talk to him directly — not a call center, not an assistant.

Is my information kept private?

Absolutely. Everything you share with Gordon stays completely private. He will never share your information with third parties.

What areas does Gordon serve?

Gordon buys homes throughout Auburn and all of Placer County including Loomis, Newcastle, Applegate, Meadow Vista, Weimar, and Colfax.

What if my home needs a lot of repairs?

Gordon buys homes in any condition — roof damage, foundation issues, fire or water damage, outdated interiors. None of it prevents him from making an offer.

What if I'm behind on mortgage payments?

Call Gordon as soon as possible. Time is critical in these situations and the sooner you reach out the more options you have.

What if the home is going through probate?

Gordon has experience working with probate properties in Placer County and is happy to coordinate with your probate attorney. In some cases he has been able to purchase at the probate referee's appraised value.

What if there are tenants living in the property?

Gordon buys tenant-occupied properties regularly. You don't need to wait for leases to end or navigate the eviction process before selling.

Can I sell if there are liens on the property?

In many cases yes. Tax liens, contractor liens, and other encumbrances can often be resolved through the sale proceeds at closing.
