Selling a Damaged House in Alberta
Fire, water, mould, or foundation damage doesn't rule a property out. Our team buys damaged houses as-is, with no repairs required first.
Get My Cash Offer 📞 Call 587-324-8525A damaged property can feel like it has no good options — too costly to repair, too difficult to insure, and not an easy fit for a traditional listing where buyers expect something close to move-in ready. That's exactly the kind of property our team is set up to buy.
Common Types of Damage We See
Fire damage ranges from a contained kitchen fire to a loss significant enough that the structure itself is in question. Water damage is common across Alberta, whether from a burst pipe during a hard winter freeze, a failed sump pump, or long-term leaks that have led to mould. Foundation damage is particularly common here because of Alberta's expansive clay soils and seasonal freeze-thaw cycles, which can cause cracking, settling, and shifting over time, especially in older homes.
Whatever the specific damage, our team looks at the real condition and prices around it, rather than requiring you to fix it before we'll even consider an offer.
Insurance Claims and Damaged Properties
If there's an open insurance claim related to the damage, let us know where it stands. In some cases, a claim payout can factor into the sale; in others, a property sells with the damage as-is and the claim is settled separately. Every situation is a little different, and our team will walk through what makes sense for yours.
Why Sell Rather Than Repair and List
Repairing a damaged property before a traditional listing can mean months of work, contractor delays, and upfront costs you may not have or want to spend on a property you're ready to be done with. Selling as-is skips all of that — no contractors, no waiting on materials, and no guessing whether the repair will even be worth it once it's done.
Common Questions
Will you buy a house with fire damage?
Yes, including properties with significant fire damage. Tell us the extent of it and whether there's an open insurance claim, and we'll factor that into the offer.
What about water damage or mould?
We buy those too. Water damage and mould are common, especially in older Alberta homes or basements, and we evaluate the property based on its real condition rather than requiring remediation first.
Do you buy houses with foundation problems?
Yes. Alberta's expansive clay soils and freeze-thaw cycles cause real foundation issues in a lot of homes, from hairline cracks to more significant settling. We account for the likely cost of addressing it in our offer.
Do I need to get an inspection or repair estimate before contacting you?
No. You're welcome to share any inspection or insurance reports you already have, but you don't need to get one done for us. Our team will look at the property as it stands.
What if there is an open insurance claim on the damage?
That's fine — tell us where the claim stands and whether any payout is expected. We can structure the offer around that information.
