Frequently Asked Questions

What makes EZ Cash Homes different from other home buyers?

We’re real, local buyers—not wholesalers. You deal directly with Rick and his team in Waukegan, so your offer and closing timeline are guaranteed from start to finish.

Are there any hidden fees or surprise costs?

Never. We cover typical seller closing costs and charge zero commissions or junk fees. The number you’re quoted is exactly what you’ll walk away with at closing.

How fast can I sell my house?

Most sellers close within 7–14 days, but you can choose the date that fits your schedule. We’re flexible—whether you need to sell immediately or plan ahead.

Do I need to make repairs or clean before selling?

Not at all. We buy homes as-is. You don’t have to fix, clean, or even clear out items. Just take what you want and leave the rest—we’ll handle everything else.

Can you help if I’m facing foreclosure?

Yes. We specialize in helping homeowners behind on payments sell fast and avoid foreclosure damage to their credit. Call us early—we can act quickly.

What if my house has tenants or code violations?

No problem. We buy occupied properties and handle city compliance issues. You don’t need to evict tenants or fix violations before closing.

Will my offer be fair?

Absolutely. We evaluate each property’s real condition and market value—not just a formula. Every offer is transparent and designed to be fair and pressure-free.

What areas do you serve?

We buy homes all across Lake County—Waukegan, Zion, Gurnee, North Chicago, Beach Park—and nearby McHenry, IL, and Kenosha, WI. Local service is what we’re built on.

Who handles the paperwork and closing?

We work with trusted local attorneys and title companies to ensure a legal, smooth, and transparent closing every time. You’ll never deal with complicated documents alone.
