Frequently Asked Questions About Selling Your House Fast

What kinds of properties does Kendall Partners purchase?

We buy houses throughout Chicagoland in nearly any condition. That includes outdated homes, inherited properties, vacant houses, unfinished projects, and homes affected by fire, water, or significant deferred maintenance.

What happens after I submit my property information?
A member of our team will contact you to learn more about the house and your situation. We may arrange a brief property visit before reviewing the details and preparing a no-obligation cash offer.
Am I expected to clean out the property first?
No. You can take the belongings you want and leave behind items you no longer wish to move.
What happens if the house needs extensive work?
Major repairs do not prevent us from purchasing a property. We evaluate homes in their present condition, so you do not have to renovate, update, or make the house market-ready before contacting us.
Which selling expenses should I expect?
Kendall Partners does not charge sellers real estate commissions or service fees, and we typically cover the ordinary closing costs associated with the transaction. The offer and closing documents will explain the financial terms before you commit.
Who actually purchases the property?
Kendall Partners is a direct home buyer. We purchase properties rather than listing them for sale, and our agreements are not dependent on first locating another buyer for the house.
How soon will I know what Kendall Partners can offer?
In many cases, we can provide an offer within 24 hours after gathering the necessary property information and completing any required visit.
Can Kendall Partners purchase a tenant-occupied house?
Potentially, yes. We review occupied rental properties as well as vacant homes. Existing leases, tenant circumstances, and local requirements will need to be considered before the transaction is finalized.
Can I contact you about a house with liens, unpaid taxes, or title complications?
Yes. We can review the available information with the title company and explain what would need to be resolved as part of the closing process.
What should I do if the property is part of an estate?
Start by telling us where things stand with the estate and who currently has authority to act on its behalf. We can coordinate with the estate’s representatives and title professionals, although an attorney should answer questions about probate authority or legal obligations.
Is a sale still possible when mortgage payments have been missed?
It may be, depending on the amount owed, the property’s value, and where the lender is in its process. Because deadlines can become important, exploring your selling options quickly can help you avoid further penalties.
How does a direct sale compare with putting the house on the market?
A traditional listing can take time and may require multiple showings, working with a real estate agent, and can take several weeks or months to complete. A direct sale prioritizes simplicity and certainty by eliminating repairs, staging, open houses, commissions, and financing contingencies. The better option depends on your priorities and timeline.
Does requesting an offer obligate me to sell?
No. Learning what Kendall Partners can offer does not require you to accept. You can review the terms, ask questions, and decide if this makes sense for you.
Where does Kendall Partners purchase homes?
We purchase properties in Chicago and communities throughout the surrounding suburbs, including areas such as Naperville, Aurora, Joliet, Carpentersville, Norridge, Batavia, Lombard, Yorkville, and nearby locations. Contact us if you are unsure whether your property falls within our service area.
