“How REI Branded Home Buyer Can Help”
If you’re thinking about selling your house in Wenatchee, one of the biggest questions is:
Should I make repairs, or just sell it as-is?
The truth? It depends on your time, budget, and stress level.
At REI Branded Home Buyer, we buy houses as-is in Wenatchee — no repairs, inspections, or hassle. But we also want to help you make the best decision for your goals.
Pros of Repairing Before Selling
🔨 Might increase resale value
🏠 Attracts more traditional buyers
📸 Better photos and curb appeal for listing sites
But…
- Repairs can cost thousands
- You may need permits or licensed contractors
- Unexpected issues (like mold, foundation, or plumbing) can delay everything
- You’ll still owe commissions and closing costs if selling through an agent
Benefits of Selling As-Is in Wenatchee
✅ No upfront repair costs
✅ No need to clean out the house
✅ You avoid code violations, unpermitted work, and city headaches
✅ You can close quickly and move on with your life
✅ You sell on your schedule, not the buyer’s
Real Example From Chelan County
A seller in the Sunnyslope area wanted to list their house, but it needed a new roof and electrical upgrades. The repair quotes totaled over $35,000 — and would’ve delayed the sale for months.
Instead, they sold to us as-is. We closed in two weeks. They skipped the stress, skipped the bills, and moved on debt-free.
What Kind of Homes Can Be Sold As-Is?
We buy Wenatchee homes in all conditions, including:
- Water damage
- Fire damage
- Foundation issues
- Lien problems
- Probate properties
- Hoarder houses
- Rentals with bad tenants or squatters
Should YOU Sell As-Is?
Ask yourself:
- Do I want to spend time and money on repairs?
- Can I afford delays or failed inspections?
- Do I need to sell quickly and easily?
If you’re leaning toward less hassle and more control — selling as-is may be your best move.

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.
