“How REI Branded Home Buyer Can Help”
Let’s be real—not every neighborhood in Washington is picture-perfect.
If your house is in a high-crime area, near abandoned buildings, or just in a part of town that’s seen better days, selling it the traditional way can be nearly impossible.
At REI Branded Home Buyer, we buy homes in every type of neighborhood—even ones most buyers avoid. No cleanup. No staging. Just a fair cash offer and a fast close.
What Counts as a “Bad Neighborhood”?
Washington has all types of neighborhoods. Some of the most common red flags sellers deal with include:
- High crime rates or frequent police calls
- Nearby foreclosures or boarded-up homes
- Late-night activity, noise complaints, or gang tagging
- Nearby nuisance properties or condemned homes
- Abandoned vehicles or excessive code violations
These factors can drive down home values and scare off traditional buyers.
Real Story From Pasco
A seller in Pasco had inherited a home in a neighborhood with ongoing break-ins and multiple foreclosures on the block. He tried listing it with an agent but got no offers after 90 days.
He contacted us, got a cash offer within 24 hours, and we closed in 10 days—as-is. No agent, no judgment, no neighborhood red flags holding him back.

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.
