WHO WE ARE
Poop Emoji AD
Wanted & Bounty Western Sign
Probate Ad

Yes. On the surface, we might seem to be one of those skeezy “We Buy Houses!” companies that goes around and puts lawn signs everywhere that people love to double take. And it also doesn’t help that we buy homes with cash sometimes. So while the rep might be partially true (the “We Buy Houses for Cash” part), beneath the surface, we strive to be as un-skeezy as possible. 

We are a native real estate investment company in Sumter, SC tapping into local talent to rehab homes and ours is a dynamic and community-focused enterprise. By leveraging the skills and expertise of nearby contractors, artisans, and tradespeople, our company not only revitalizes homes but also strengthens the local economy.

If it’s the first time you’re meeting us and your momma told you not to trust strangers, then please, scroll further down this page to look at what our community is saying about us.

SERVICES

"In real estate, the best deals are the ones where everybody wins—buyers find a home, sellers find value, and investors find opportunity."

FOR PROPERTY OWNERS

Owning a property can sometimes turn into a hassle. From overwhelming costs to potential safety risks, leaving a property vacant or struggling with upkeep can create unnecessary stress. That’s where we step in. Let us evaluate your property and craft a tailored solution just for you. We specialize in buying, selling, renting, and fixing properties, and if we’re unable to assist, our network of over 10,000 trusted real estate investors might have the perfect answer. Whether you’re looking to sell fast, rent with ease, or restore your property’s potential, we’re here to help.

FOR FELLOW INVESTORS

Partnering with fellow real estate investors unlocks a world of opportunities and shared expertise, boosting both reach and investment potential. By combining resources, we can take on larger, more lucrative projects while reducing individual risks. Whether it’s flipping properties, joint ventures in commercial real estate, or strategic partnerships in property development, collaboration allows us to achieve greater success. We’re always looking to expand our network and work together to create profitable and impactful real estate ventures.

FOR STUDENT INVESTORS

Teaching student real estate investors requires breaking down complex concepts into digestible, practical lessons. We start with the fundamentals—understanding property types, market analysis, and financing options—while incorporating real-world examples to illustrate each point. We highly encourage hands-on learning through case studies, property visits, and mock investment scenarios, allowing students to apply theory to practice during our mentorship. Class is usually held first Tuesday of the month.
