List it in Long Beach, or sell it to us.
Every city adds its own paperwork to a sale. Here is what a listing in Long Beach asks of you, and what changes when we are the buyer.
If you list in Long Beach
- Transfer tax: Los Angeles County's $1.10 per $1,000. Long Beach adds no city transfer tax. Negotiated in escrow, usually the seller.
- Garage Resale Program: inside the city's Parking Impacted Area, a garage inspection report goes to the buyer before the sale. Any violations must be corrected within 60 days of closing.
- Tenants: Long Beach's Just Cause ordinance applies from twelve months of tenancy. Ending a tenancy for remodel or demolition carries a relocation payment of at least two months' rent or $4,500.
- Plus the usual: repairs, showings, commissions, and weeks on market before a buyer's loan even starts.
If you sell to us
- As-is. No repairs, no staging, no showings.
- No agent commissions. Every cost in the deal is written into the offer before you sign, so nothing new appears at closing.
- You choose the closing date, as soon as seven days or months out.
- Tenants in place are fine. We buy occupied property and do not ask you to evict anyone first.
- State disclosures still apply to every sale (smoke and CO alarms, water-heater strapping, the standard California forms). We walk you through them; they take minutes, not weeks.
- If your house sits in the Parking Impacted Area, we handle the garage report and any corrections after closing.
Rules verified against City of Long Beach and Los Angeles County sources on . Ordinances change; we re-check before every offer.

How fast can I sell my house in California?
We can close in as little as 7 days, sometimes faster when title is clean and the seller is motivated. The typical close is 7–14 days. Once you submit your property info you receive a cash offer within 24 hours, and you pick the closing date, anywhere from 7 to 60+ days.
Do I need to make repairs before selling?
No repairs are needed to sell a California house to us; we buy as-is, including houses that would fail an inspection. We buy houses in any condition: fire damage, flood damage, hoarder homes, inherited properties, foundation issues, code violations, open permits. You sell as-is. Leave behind whatever you don't want.
Are there any fees, commissions, or closing costs?
There are no fees, commissions or closing costs when you sell to us; the written offer is the amount you receive. We pay all closing costs, title fees, escrow fees, and recording fees. There are no agent commissions because there is no agent.
Is this legitimate? How do I know you'll actually close?
Sell My House Fast In CA is a California-registered direct cash buyer. Every offer comes with proof of funds, every close is handled by a licensed escrow officer, and you can speak directly to the title company before signing anything.
