Selling a House That Needs Major Renovations in Washington

“How REI Branded Home Buyer Can Help”

Staring down a long list of repairs and thinking: “This just isn’t worth it”?

You’re not alone.

Many Washington homeowners feel stuck with properties that need major renovations — full kitchen overhauls, foundation work, electrical rewiring, or mold remediation. If that’s your reality, the good news is: you can still sell the house without fixing a thing.

At REI Branded Home Buyer, we buy homes as-is, no matter how unfinished, outdated, or broken they may be.


When Is a House Too Much to Fix?

Here are common red flags that it may not make sense to renovate:

  • Extensive foundation or structural damage
  • Failing roof, plumbing, or electrical systems
  • Signs of mold or pest infestations
  • Interior demo started but never finished
  • Unpermitted work or outdated systems
  • You’re overwhelmed or can’t afford contractors

These homes usually can’t go FHA or VA and sit on the MLS without offers. But we buy them directly — fast and without hassle.


Real Story From Richland

A homeowner in Richland tried to update her parents’ house but ran out of time and money. The kitchen was gutted, electrical wires were exposed, and half the drywall had been removed.

We walked through the property, made a fair cash offer, and closed in 9 days — as-is. She avoided contractors, saved thousands, and moved on stress-free.

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.
