Sell Your Des Moines Fixer Upper Without Lifting a Finger

Don’t Stress Over Repairs—We Buy Des Moines Houses Exactly As-Is

Is your house in need of major repairs that you just can’t afford—or don’t want to deal with? Whether it’s a leaky roof, a cracked foundation, or a 1970s interior that needs a total gut-job, selling on the traditional market can be a nightmare.

Most buyers in Des Moines are looking for “move-in ready” homes. When a house needs work, banks often won’t even approve a loan for a buyer, leaving you stuck. That’s where we come in. We don’t care about the peeling paint or the outdated kitchen—we see the potential in every property.

No Repair is Too Big or Too Small:

  • 🛠️ Structural & Foundation Issues: We aren’t afraid of Polk County’s tricky clay soil and basement cracks.
  • 💧 Water or Fire Damage: We buy homes with mold, damp basements, or fire history.
  • 🏚️ The “Full Gut” Project: Hoarder situations or homes that have been vacant for years are no problem.
  • 🛑 Code Violations: We handle properties with city citations or “Do Not Occupy” tags.

Keep Your Cash in Your Pocket

The average Des Moines kitchen remodel costs over $25,000, and a new roof can easily run $10,000. Why spend that money just to sell the house? When you sell to Emily & Levi, you keep your cash. You don’t even have to clean out the closets or sweep the floors.

We’ve renovated homes all across the metro, from Urbandale to East Village. We love taking “the neighborhood eyesore” and turning it into a beautiful home again, while giving you a clean break and a fair price.

Leave the Hammer Behind

Take what you want, leave the rest to us. We make selling a fixer-upper the easiest part of your year.
