Our Simple 3-Step Home Selling Process in California
Want to know more about how we do it? Here’s how our simple, proven process works to get you cash for houses in Los Angeles—fast.
Unlike traditional real estate transactions that can drag on for months, our cash offer process is designed to move at your pace. There are no mortgage contingencies, no appraisal delays, and no risk of buyer financing falling through at the last minute. When we make you an offer, we have the funds ready to close.
Our offers are based on a careful evaluation of your property’s current condition, comparable recent sales in your neighborhood, and any repairs that may be needed. We believe in full transparency—we’ll walk you through exactly how we arrived at your offer amount so you can make an informed decision with zero pressure.
Whether your property is in Los Angeles, Orange County, or anywhere else in Southern California, we can typically present you with a no-obligation cash offer within 24 hours of our initial conversation. From there, you choose the closing date that works best for your schedule—whether that’s 7 days or 30 days.
We buy all types of residential properties including single-family homes, condos, townhouses, duplexes, and multi-family units. Whether your home is a charming 1920s Craftsman in Pasadena, a mid-century ranch in the San Fernando Valley, or a modern build in South Bay, we’re ready to make you a competitive cash offer. We also purchase properties with fire damage, foundation problems, mold issues, unpermitted additions, and outstanding code violations—situations where traditional buyers and their lenders typically won’t go.
Our streamlined home selling process eliminates the headaches of traditional real estate. There are no open houses to host, no strangers walking through your home, and no weekends spent cleaning and staging. You won’t need to hire a real estate agent, pay any commissions, or cover closing costs—we handle everything.
Most homeowners who reach out to us are surprised at how simple the entire experience is. From your first phone call to the day you receive your cash payment, our team guides you through every step. We work with a trusted local title company to ensure all paperwork is handled professionally, and we can even come to you for document signing if that’s more convenient.
When you sell through a traditional real estate agent, you’re looking at 5–6% in commission fees alone—on a $500,000 home, that’s up to $30,000 coming straight out of your pocket. Then there are repair costs, staging expenses, photography fees, and months of mortgage payments while your property sits on the market waiting for the right buyer.
Selling directly to a cash home buyer like John Medina Buys Houses eliminates all of those costs. There are no agent commissions, no repair requirements, and no hidden fees. The price we offer is the price you receive at closing. For homeowners dealing with time-sensitive situations like pre-foreclosure, tax liens, or code violations, a fast cash sale can be the difference between walking away with equity and losing everything.
We Buy Houses As-Is in Any Condition — No Repairs Needed!
When we say, “We Buy Houses In California As Is”, that’s exactly what we mean, AS-IS, in ANY possible condition! Take anything you still want & we will take care of everything else! Yup, that is 100% correct, refrigerator, food dirty clothes and floors, trash and damaged furniture. No matter how bad things are its no problem. We will buy your home for cash quick in any area of Southern CA, in all conditions.
We regularly purchase properties with foundation issues, fire damage, mold, termite damage, roof leaks, and unpermitted additions—situations where conventional buyers and mortgage lenders typically will not close. If your home has outstanding code violations, deferred maintenance, or needs a complete renovation, that is not a problem. Our team evaluates every property based on its potential, not its current condition. Homeowners across Gardena, Carson, Norwalk, Long Beach, Torrance, and Pomona have trusted us to make the selling process simple.
Skip the Hassle of Listing — Sell Directly to a Cash Home Buyer
Selling your home is a big decision you need to make, so it’s OK if you have some initial hesitancy. If you want to sell your house but are not 100% sure if it’s the right move, here are some things to keep in mind.
Many homeowners in Los Angeles wonder whether selling to a cash home buyer or listing with a real estate agent is the better choice. The reality is that a traditional home sale in Southern California often takes 60 to 90 days, costs thousands in commissions and repair expenses, and comes with no guarantee of closing. Here is how selling your house for cash to John Medina compares:
| John Medina Buys Houses | Traditional Sale | |
|---|---|---|
| Fees | $0 | 6% + commissions |
| Repairs | None | Usually required |
| Time to Close | 7-10 days | 60-90+ days |

Cash home buyers typically offer between 70% and 85% of a property’s after-repair market value, depending on the condition, location, and scope of repairs needed. At John Medina Buys Houses, we base our offers on recent comparable sales in your Los Angeles neighborhood, the current as-is condition of the property, and current market trends. While a cash offer may be lower than full retail price, many homeowners find that eliminating agent commissions (typically 5-6%), repair costs, staging expenses, and months of mortgage payments while waiting for a traditional buyer makes the net proceeds comparable – and the sale is completed in days rather than months.
Yes, when you work with a reputable cash home buyer. John Medina Buys Houses is BBB accredited with an A+ rating and has been purchasing homes in Southern California since 2013. Every transaction is handled through a licensed local escrow company, and we encourage all sellers to consult with their own legal or financial advisor before accepting any offer. We also provide proof of funds upon request so you can verify our ability to close. We recommend checking any buyer’s BBB rating, Google reviews, and track record before moving forward with a cash sale.
Yes. You can sell your house for cash even if you still have an existing mortgage. When we close through a local escrow company, your remaining mortgage balance is paid off directly from the sale proceeds at closing. As long as your home’s value exceeds the amount you owe, you will receive the remaining equity as your cash payment. If you owe more than the property is worth, contact us to discuss your options – we may still be able to help depending on your situation.
We offer a free 14-day stay after closing, which is a benefit unique to John Medina Buys Houses. This means you get paid at closing and still have up to two weeks to move out at your own pace. This is especially helpful for homeowners who need time to coordinate their next living situation, pack belongings, or manage a transition such as moving out of state or into assisted living. No other cash home buyer in Los Angeles offers this level of flexibility at no additional cost to you.
