A house that has become overwhelmed with belongings is impossible to list the traditional way — photographers, agents, and buyers cannot see past the clutter, and the cost of clearing it can be enormous. ILM Home Offer buys hoarder houses exactly as they stand. You take what matters to you, leave the rest, and we handle the cleanout after closing. There is no judgment, and no pressure.

## How we make a hoarder house easy to sell

1. **No Cleanout Required** — You do not have to empty a single room. Take the keepsakes that matter and leave everything else behind.
2. **Compassionate & Confidential** — We handle these situations discreetly and without judgment. You will be treated with respect.
3. **We Handle the Disposal** — Furniture, debris, and accumulated belongings are removed by our team after closing — at our cost.
4. **We Buy Any Condition** — Significant repairs, odor, pest issues, or structural problems are all factored into one written offer.

## A discreet, hands-off process

After a single private walkthrough, we make one written offer that already accounts for the condition and the cleanup. You choose the closing date. Once you have removed the items you want and handed over the keys, our crew clears the property at no cost to you. You never have to rent a dumpster, hire a hauler, or make multiple trips.

## Why hoarder houses are so hard to sell traditionally

Real-estate agents generally will not list a home that cannot be safely shown. Lenders will not finance a property with visible hoarding, strong odors, or blocked egress. Even if a buyer appears, the appraisal and inspection typically fall apart. That leaves owners stuck paying taxes, insurance, and utilities on a house no one can buy.

A direct cash buyer removes all of that. We do not need photographs, showings, or financing — we need access to make one honest offer.

## We take the burden off your shoulders

- No cleanout or hauling
- No dumpster rentals
- No repairs
- No odor or pest remediation
- No showings
- No judgment

### Selling a hoarder house: your options

| | Sell to ILM Home Offer | List With an Agent | Sell to a Wholesaler |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Cleanout | We handle it, free to you | You pay thousands up front | Price cut likely |
| Ability to list | No listing needed | Very difficult — buyers avoid it | Varies |
| Time to close | As little as 7 days | 60–90+ days | Unreliable |
| Fees & commissions | $0 | 6%+ commissions | Hidden assignment fee |

## How is the cleanout handled?

Once you have taken the items that matter to you and we have closed, our team removes the remaining contents and prepares the property. That cost is ours, not yours, and it is already reflected in the written offer. You never have to lift a finger or return to the property.

## What if the condition is extreme?

Extreme conditions do not scare us off. Structural damage, animal hoarding, water intrusion, or fire damage are all things we have seen before. We make an offer based on the property’s potential, not its current state — so an overwhelming house becomes a manageable transaction for you.

## Why homeowners choose us for hoarder houses

We treat every seller with dignity. No lectures, no judgment, just a fair offer and a clean process that lets you close a difficult chapter.

## Frequently Asked Questions

### Do I have to clean out the house before selling?

No. Take whatever you want to keep and leave the rest. We remove and dispose of the remaining contents after closing at no cost to you.

### Will you buy a house that has strong odors or pest issues?

Yes. Odor, pests, and debris are common in these situations and are factored into our written offer.

### Is the process confidential?

Yes. There is no listing or yard sign, and the walkthrough is private. We handle these sales discreetly.

### What if there are animals or hazardous materials?

Tell us ahead of time so our team can prepare safely. We have experience with difficult conditions.

### Do I need to be present for the walkthrough?

It helps but is not required if access can be arranged. The walkthrough is brief and low-key.

### How quickly can we close?

Often in as little as 7 to 14 days, or on whatever timeline you need to gather what matters to you.

### Are there fees for the cleanout?

No. The cleanout is our responsibility and is built into the offer. You are not billed for it.

### Will you make an offer if the house is full to the doorway?

Yes. We can still evaluate it and make a fair written offer. A full house is not a dealbreaker for us.
