Sell a storm damaged Florida house without fixing it first.
A roof claim, tarp, flood line, mold concern, or dropped insurance policy can stall a normal sale before a buyer ever writes an offer. We buy storm-damaged houses across Tampa Bay as-is, with cash, so you can compare a clean exit against months of repairs, claim follow-up, and carrying costs.
Serving Hillsborough, Pinellas, Pasco & Hernando counties with as-is cash offers.
Start your cash offer
Storm damage changes the sale in four ways.
Retail buyers usually need insurance, lender approval, and a clean inspection. Storm-damaged houses often break that chain. A direct cash sale removes those dependencies.
Roof age and insurability
A 15-year-old roof can be a financing problem even before visible storm damage enters the conversation. We underwrite the roof replacement directly instead of asking you to fund it first.
Open or disputed insurance claims
You do not need to finish the claim process before calling. We review the paperwork you have, price the property as it sits, and let title handle any claim or proceeds questions that apply.
Water intrusion and mold concerns
Water damage scares financed buyers because inspection and insurance issues stack up fast. We price mitigation and repair reality into the offer and close as-is.
Flood-zone buyer fall-through
In Pinellas and coastal Hillsborough, a buyer may love the house and still fail over flood insurance. Cash removes the lender from that decision.
What we review before putting a number in writing.
| Input | How it affects the offerPlain English |
|---|---|
| Visible roof and exterior damage | We estimate replacement or repair scope and include it in the offer instead of requiring work before closing. |
| Water, mold, or drywall damage | We look at remediation, demo, and rebuild costs so the number reflects real post-storm work. |
| Insurance claim status | Open, denied, or partially paid claims do not automatically block a sale. They affect closing paperwork and pricing. |
| Flood zone and elevation context | Flood risk affects resale and insurance math, especially near the Gulf and bay. We explain how it moved the number. |
Why this comes up across Tampa Bay.
Pinellas County
Beach and bay-adjacent neighborhoods often carry the hardest wind and flood insurance math, especially after repeated storm seasons.
Pasco County
Holiday, Hudson, and New Port Richey properties may combine roof age, block-home updates, and insurance questions.
Hillsborough County
South-shore and bay-adjacent properties can face storm surge, older roofs, and open claim questions that make financed offers fragile.
Hernando County
Storm damage plus sinkhole or disclosure history can make lender-backed sales slow. Cash keeps the closing path simpler.
A cash offer should still feel personal.
When condition, title, or timing is stressful, you need a direct buyer who can explain the number and keep the closing path clear. The House Buying Solutions Florida team handles the conversation before a local title company handles the closing.
How the cash sale moves from first call to closing.
Send the address and what happened
Tell us about the storm, roof, flood, claim, or insurance issue. Photos help, but they are not required to start.
Get a repair-aware cash number
We review nearby sales, visible condition, and repair scope, then send written terms when the available information supports them.
Close without doing the repairs
A title company reviews payoff, liens, and signing. You take what you want and leave the agreed damaged work with the property.
Keep narrowing the decision.
What sellers ask before they choose an as-is sale.
Yes. We consider hurricane, roof, flood, and water damage. The scope, documents, access, title, and resale context all affect whether and on what terms we can proceed.
No. If a claim is open, denied, or only partly paid, send what you have. We will price the house as-is and let title advise on any closing paperwork tied to claim proceeds.
Yes. A tarped roof is a common reason sellers call us. We price roof replacement or repair into the written cash offer.
No. We are a direct buyer. For claim, tax, legal, or policy questions, talk with your public adjuster, attorney, CPA, or insurance professional.
