“Work With Local Pros Who Care”
A house fire can change everything in an instant. Whether it was a small kitchen blaze or a major structural loss, the aftermath is stressful, emotional — and expensive.
At REI Branded Home Buyer, we buy fire-damaged homes across Washington as-is, with no cleanup, no repairs, and no insurance delays.
We make it simple to move on from the damage and focus on your next chapter.
Types of Fire Damage We Buy
- Kitchen or electrical fires
- Smoke damage throughout the home
- Fire in attic, basement, or garage
- Partial or full structural burns
- Boarded-up homes declared uninhabitable
- Homes under insurance investigation
You don’t need to wait for the claim, hire a contractor, or fight the city. We’ll buy the property in its current condition — even if it’s still boarded up.
Real Story From Pasco
A family in Pasco had a fire in their detached garage that spread to the back half of the house. Insurance was dragging its feet, and the home was declared unsafe.
We made an offer in 24 hours and closed in less than two weeks. They were able to relocate and start over without paying out of pocket for cleanup or demolition.

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.
