Facing foreclosure or a sale date?
We buy houses as-is from homeowners facing foreclosure and work to close before the sale date. If we buy your house, your loan is paid off at closing. When that closing happens before your sale date, the foreclosure sale is cancelled.
We can't promise every timeline. Here's how timing works.
Tell us a little. A real person will call you back.
Elevate Home Options is a private company that buys houses. We're not your lender, a law firm, a government agency, or a HUD-approved counseling agency. No fee. Not every property or area is a fit.
What it changes
Selling doesn't buy you a few more months. It closes the chapter.
Paid in full from the sale at closing. Not reworked, not pushed back.
No new payment to keep up with. No ending up back here in six months.
Selling means you don't have to file bankruptcy or let a foreclosure go through. We can't promise a specific credit score.
No more waiting on the court date or bracing every time the mail comes.
We agree on a move-out date together, so you can plan instead of scramble.
When there's equity, the difference is paid to you at closing. You'll see the numbers first.
Where you probably are
Foreclosure can happen to anyone: a job change, a medical bill, a divorce, a payment that went up. Most people we talk to didn't wait. They worked hard at it.
Denied, or approved with a payment that was still too high, and now you're behind again.
Calls to the lender, over and over. Asking family for help. If catching up were possible, you'd have done it.
Bankruptcy can hurt your credit for years. Fighting the case usually means paying an attorney many families can't afford right now.
Free to talk. No obligation. No repairs.
Selling is the step that can actually finish it.

Seven steps. You'll always know which one you're on.
You
Fill out the short form or call (813) 308-0046. If you have a sale date, tell us. It sets the pace for everything that follows.
A real conversation
A real person calls to hear what's going on, what you've already tried, and about the property. No pressure, no obligation.
If we can buy it
First we tell you who the buyer is. Then we walk you through a cash offer for the house as-is and how we got there. If it isn't a fit, we'll say so.
Closing
A licensed title or closing agent handles the paperwork, and we work to close before your sale date. No repairs, no showings.
At closing
The title company pays your lender in full from the sale. That's part of every closing: the mortgage is paid off before the sale is complete.
The result
With the loan paid off before the sale date, the foreclosure sale is cancelled. The payoff is what ends it. No fee, no separate service.
After
You move out on the date we agreed on. If there's equity, the money left over is paid to you at closing.
We work to close before your sale date, but we can't promise every case. Timing depends on title, the payoff, your lender, and the court calendar. If more time is needed, a postponement is sometimes possible. That's the lender's and the court's call, not ours; we have no power over the court on our own. The sooner you reach out, the more room there is to work.

Who you're dealing with
A private company that buys houses. We buy in many areas, not everywhere. If your property or area isn't a fit, we'll tell you right away.
You'll talk with a real person who listens first and tells you straight.
No fee to talk and no charge for an offer. If we buy your house, we earn money the way investors do: buying at a price that leaves room for repairs, costs, and a profit when the home is resold. Offers come from Elevate Home Cash Offer, LLC. Sometimes our contract is assigned to another buyer before closing; if so, we'll tell you before you sign.
Be careful with anyone who asks for money up front to "stop" a foreclosure, tells you to stop paying your lender, wants your deed while promising you can stay or buy it back, pressures you to sign today, or claims to be the government, the court, or your lender. Check any company with your state attorney general.
Have an offer from another company? Send it over and we'll walk through the price, any fees, how and when you'd be paid, and anything about the deed, so you know what to ask. Free, no strings. Not legal advice.
Questions
Yes, when we close in time. If we buy your house, your loan is paid off at closing, and when that closing happens before the sale date, the foreclosure sale is cancelled. The real question is timing, so tell us your sale date and we'll give you a straight answer on what's realistic.
Yes. That's where many people we talk to are. Selling pays off the loan instead of reworking it, so there's no new payment to fall behind on.
Selling means you don't have to file bankruptcy or let a foreclosure go through. We can't promise a specific credit score. For advice on your credit, talk to a qualified professional.
If the house is worth more than what's owed, the difference is paid to you at closing. Not every situation has equity, and you'll see the numbers before you decide.
We'll tell you plainly. A regular cash sale has to cover the loan and other liens. If it can't, your lender would have to agree to accept less (a short sale), which we don't negotiate. An attorney or agent can explain that path.
Many areas, not everywhere, and not every property. We mainly buy single-family homes and townhomes, not mobile homes, land, condos, commercial, or multi-family. Tell us where it is; if it isn't a fit, we'll say so.
Fair question; ask it of everyone. We never charge a fee, never ask for your deed before a closing at a title company, and tell you who the buyer is before we talk numbers. Have an attorney review anything before you sign.
No. We're a private company, not connected to any government agency, court, HUD, or your lender, and not a nonprofit.
No. We can't give legal, tax, or financial advice. Your state or local bar's lawyer referral service can help you find an attorney (ABA directory).
We keep your information private and use it only to look at your situation and follow up, as described in our Privacy Policy. It isn't attorney-client privileged.
