MY PROMISE TO YOU
My Sell-Fast Guarantee
Every offer I make comes with the same five promises.
An All-Cash Offer With Proof of Funds
I buy with my own money, so there's no lender approval, no appraisal, and no buyer's loan that can fall apart the week before closing. Ask for proof of funds before you sign anything. I'll send it.
No Commissions, Closing Costs, or Hidden Fees
You don't pay an agent commission, and I pay all the closing costs. The number I offer is the number you get at closing, less your mortgage payoff and any liens. No last-minute deductions.
Any Condition, Any Situation
Fire damage, a house full of belongings, a failed inspection, tenants still living there: none of it stops a fast sale. You don't need to repair, clean, or empty anything.
You Choose the Closing Date
Most of my sales close in 7 to 14 days. If you're facing a hard deadline, I can close in as few as 3. If you need more time, pick a later date, or ask about a leaseback so you can stay in the house after closing while you find your next place.
No Obligation, No Pressure
Getting a number costs you nothing. Take a few days, run it by your family, or compare it with what an agent says you'd net. If you walk away, there's no fee and no hard feelings.
How Fast Can You Sell Your House for Cash in Portland?
Faster than most people expect. A typical Portland listing takes about two months from the day it goes live to the day it closes, and that is before any repairs or prep work. A cash sale skips the slow parts: no lender underwriting, no appraisal, and no inspection repairs to negotiate. Here's what the timeline looks like when you sell to me.
Day 1: Tell Me About Your Property
Fill out the form or call me. All I need is the address, a little about the condition, and when you need to be done. Within an hour, I start pulling recent sales of similar homes in your neighborhood and reviewing the public records on your property.
Within 24 Hours: Your No-Obligation Cash Offer
I'll call you, ask a few questions, and set a time to walk through the house. If you can't meet in person, I can make an offer sight-unseen from your description and photos. Either way, you'll have a no-obligation cash offer within 24 hours, and I'll walk you through how I got to the number.
Days 3 to 14: Close at a Licensed Title Company
Once you accept, a licensed and insured title company opens escrow, checks the title, and requests the payoff from your lender. You pick the closing date. At closing, the title company pays off your mortgage and any liens directly, and the rest is wired to you.

What Can Slow Down a Fast Sale (and How I Handle It)
Speed on my end is rarely the problem. When a closing takes longer, it's almost always paperwork or a property issue that has to be cleared at title. None of these stop me from buying. They can move the date, and I'll tell you up front which ones apply to your house.
Probate that hasn't been opened. If the owner has passed away, the estate usually has to be opened before the house can transfer. I can make the offer now and close when the paperwork catches up.
Liens, judgments, and back taxes. These are paid from the sale proceeds at closing through the title company. You don't have to clear them before you accept an offer.
Title problems. An heir who never signed off, an old mortgage that was paid but never released, a name spelled wrong on the deed. The title company finds these early so nobody is surprised at the closing table.
Tenants in the house. I buy rentals with tenants in place, so you don't have to serve notices or wait out a move-out. That matters in Portland, where ending a tenancy without cause can require the landlord to pay the tenant relocation assistance.
Problems that stall a buyer's loan. Older Portland homes often have an abandoned underground heating oil tank, a cracked sewer line that fails the scope, or a basement or garage finished without permits. Any one of these can hold up a financed buyer for weeks. I don't need a lender, so I can buy the house the way it is.
Selling Fast for Cash vs. Listing With an Agent: What You Actually Net
A cash offer will be lower than full retail price. No cash buyer pays retail, and I won't pretend otherwise. The fair comparison is what you walk away with after commissions, repairs, closing costs, and the months of payments you keep making while the house sits on the market.
Here's an illustration using a house priced at Portland's typical sale price.
| Listing with an agent | Selling fast to me | |
|---|---|---|
| Sale price | $595,000 | My cash offer |
| Agent commission (5.5%) | −$32,725 | $0 |
| Seller closing costs (2%) | −$11,900 | $0, I pay them |
| Repairs and prep before listing | −$15,000 | $0, sold as-is |
| Carrying costs: 3 months of mortgage, taxes, insurance, and utilities at $3,500 a month | −$10,500 | Days, not months |
| Estimated net before mortgage payoff | $524,875 | Your full offer |
| Time to cash | About 2 months, longer with prep | 7 to 14 days, as fast as 3 |

Illustration only. Your numbers will differ.
In this example, a cash offer of about $525,000 puts the same money in your pocket as listing, roughly two months sooner and with no risk of a buyer's loan falling through. That's your break-even number. Ask me to run this math on your house and I'll go through it line by line with you.
When Listing Is the Better Call
If your house is in good shape, you aren't facing a deadline, and top dollar matters more than speed, an agent will usually net you more. I'll tell you that on the phone. A fast cash sale makes sense when the clock, the condition of the house, or the certainty of closing matters more than the last few percent.

Why Sell Your House Fast to a Local, Direct Buyer
At Portland Cash Buyers, I believe in honest, transparent transactions conducted with integrity. I listen to your needs and craft a cash offer that meets those needs. If you're not happy with my offer, you're under no obligation to follow through with the sale. My testimonials are my sellers' way of sharing their experience with you. I have a proven record of seller satisfaction. I save you time and money while relieving you of the burden of owning a home that no longer fits your lifestyle.
A Direct Buyer, Not a Wholesaler
When I make an offer, I'm the one buying your house, with my own funds, and I'm the one at the closing table. I don't put a house under contract and then sell that contract to another investor for a fee, a practice called assignment that often leaves the seller with less. Oregon's HB 4058, which took effect in 2025, added protections for homeowners against exactly that kind of wholesaling. It changes nothing about how I work, because every contract I write is transparent and fully disclosed.
How to Check Any Fast Cash Buyer, Including Me
If your house is in Multnomah County, you can also sign up for the county's free Property Recording Alert Service, which emails you when a document is recorded against your property.
Who You'll Be Working With
What Portland Sellers Say About Selling Fast
Real reviews from sellers who needed a clean, quick sale.
"We were dealing with tough timelines and multiple moving parts, and Quinn came through. Would definitely do business with him again."
"My brothers and I were selling my mom's home after her passing. Quinn made our decision very easy. He was more than willing to give us the extra time we needed. The closing went very smoothly and quickly."
"We initially checked into OpenDoor but decided not to go with it due to the low offer. Quinn is very honest, easy to work with, and highly communicative, not in a pressured way at all. We felt well supported during the entire process."
"I was so nervous to sell without a realtor representing me. But everything Quinn said was 100% how it played out. Honest and straightforward. All I needed to feel good about my sale."
Areas Where I Buy Houses Fast
I buy houses for cash in every Portland neighborhood, from St. Johns and Kenton in North Portland through Northeast Portland, Hawthorne, Montavilla, and Lents on the east side, out to the West Hills and Southwest Portland. Beyond the city limits, I buy throughout Multnomah, Washington, Clackamas, Yamhill, and Columbia counties in Oregon, plus Clark County in Washington.
Sell My House Fast Portland: Common Questions
Can you really close in 3 to 7 days?
Yes, when the title is clear, and you’re ready to go. Most of my sales close in 7 to 14 days, and I’ve closed in as few as 3 when a seller had a hard deadline. The title company sets the floor, not me. If there’s a lien to pay off or an estate to open, that can add time, and I’ll tell you at the offer stage.
How do you calculate a fast cash offer?
I start with what your house would sell for once it’s fixed up, based on recent sales of similar homes in your neighborhood. Then I subtract what the repairs will cost and what it costs me to hold and resell the property. What’s left is my offer, and I’ll show you each number so you can check my math.
Can I sell fast if I'm behind on my mortgage?
Yes. Most houses I buy still have a mortgage on them. At closing, the title company pays your lender directly out of the sale, and the rest is yours. If a foreclosure sale is already scheduled, call me right away, and I’ll tell you whether I can close before that date.
What if the house has liens, back taxes, or title problems?
Those get paid off or cleared through the title company as part of closing, out of the sale proceeds. You don’t have to settle them before you accept my offer. Some title issues take longer to fix than others, and I’ll tell you up front if one is likely to move your closing date.
Can I choose a later closing date or stay after closing?
Yes to both. You can close in a week or a few months from now. If you need to stay in the house after the sale while you find your next place, ask me about a leaseback.
Do I have to clean out the house before a fast sale?
No. Take what you want and leave the rest: furniture, tools, boxes in the basement. If I find personal papers like tax returns or bank statements after closing, I shred them to protect you.
How do I know you're a real buyer and not a wholesaler?
Ask me for proof of funds and I’ll send it. I buy with my own money, I take legal ownership of the house, and every sale closes through a licensed, insured title company. I don’t assign contracts to other investors, which is the practice Oregon’s HB 4058 was written to regulate.
