“How REI Branded Home Buyer Can Help”
House fires are devastating. Whether it was a kitchen blaze, electrical issue, or wildfire exposure, the damage can leave you feeling stuck.
If you’re dealing with a fire-damaged house in Everett, WA, you’re not alone. Many homeowners don’t have the time, insurance coverage, or resources to fully rebuild. At REI Branded Home Buyer, we help people like you sell as-is — fast.
🚒 Common Fire Damage in Everett Homes
Fires don’t always destroy the entire house — but the aftermath is still costly:
- Charred framing or roof damage
- Smoke damage throughout the home
- Water damage from firefighting
- Hazardous mold growth (source)
- Structural instability
Even if your home survived the fire, most buyers won’t touch it. But we will — no cleanup, no judgment, no repairs.
💸 What Are My Options With a Fire-Damaged House?
1. Rebuild
You could file a claim and rebuild — but insurance doesn’t always cover everything, and repairs could take months or years.
2. List It “As-Is” With an Agent
You’ll still need inspections, disclosures, and often won’t get many offers unless it’s deeply discounted.
3. Sell It Directly to a Local Cash Buyer (Fastest Route)
We buy fire-damaged homes without repairs, cleaning, or inspections. You don’t even need to remove debris. We take it as-is, pay cash, and close on your timeline.
🧾 Disclosure Rules in Washington
Washington State requires you to disclose fire damage on the Seller Disclosure Form (Form 17). Trying to hide damage could land you in legal trouble later.
But when you sell directly to us, we already know the home is damaged. You’re protected — and the transaction stays transparent and simple.

About REI Branded Home Buyer
Real People. Real Stories. Real Solutions. We’re George and TJ — two regular guys who teamed up to create REI Branded Home Buyer, a local company with one simple mission: to help people sell their homes without stress, games, or pressure. We actually met at a local real estate meetup. A mutual friend randomly shouted, “Hey George, do you want to be this guy’s mentor?” George laughed and said, “Just give him my cell!” A coffee meeting later, and the rest is history. We've been working together ever since. Our passion for helping homeowners comes from personal experience. George was once homeless, so he deeply understands what it’s like to face housing uncertainty. TJ’s family went through a crisis and had to sell their home fast — with the help of a cash homebuyer. Those experiences shaped who we are and inspired us to create a company that treats people the way we wish we’d been treated. Let’s be real: the real estate world is full of shady companies, pushy salespeople, and sleazy homebuyers who care more about profit than people. We started REI Branded Home Buyer because we believe it should be the other way around — people first, profit second. We’re proud to call Spokane home. Our wives, Jenny and Michelle, love the slower pace of life here and all the outdoor beauty Washington has to offer. George and Jenny have two amazing daughters and two dogs — they love to travel and recently visited Japan to see their daughter abroad. TJ and Michelle are outdoor lovers through and through — backpacking, hiking, hunting, fishing, even rock climbing. Michelle’s become quite the mountaineer! If you’re thinking about selling a house — no matter the reason — we’d love to hear your story and see how we can help.
