Cash home buyers in Delray Beach
Sell Your Delray Beach House Fast, As-Is
Short answer: we buy houses, villas and condos in Delray Beach for cash, in any condition, with a written offer in about 24 hours and a closing on your date. Our office is in Boca Raton, fifteen minutes south, and Delray is part of our home market.
Delray Beach splits hard at I-95. East of it are 1920s to 1950s frame and block cottages around Atlantic Avenue, the Marina and Del-Ida Park, plus mid-century ranches in Lake Ida and Tropic Isle. West of it are the big 55-plus condominium and villa communities from the 1970s and 80s: Kings Point, High Point, the Villages of Oriole and the Pines of Delray.
Downtown Delray has locally designated historic districts, and exterior changes there go through the city’s historic preservation review. That turns a simple roof, window or addition job into a longer approval, which is why dated cottages near Atlantic Avenue often sit when a buyer’s contractor prices the work. West of I-95 the issue is different: older condominium buildings working through milestone inspections and reserve funding.

Local problems we solve
Delray Beach Situations We Buy In
55-plus condominiums west of I-95
Kings Point, High Point, the Villages of Oriole and the Pines of Delray hold thousands of units from the 1970s and 80s. Buildings three stories and taller now need milestone inspections under Florida law, and associations must fund structural reserves, which is producing assessments and higher dues. See selling a condo with a special assessment.
Historic and older homes east of I-95
Frame cottages near downtown often have original wiring, termite history and settling floors. Buyers who need financing struggle to insure them. We buy them as they are.
Flooding near the Intracoastal
Low streets near the Marina and the Intracoastal see tidal flooding during king tides. We buy flood-prone and storm-damaged homes; see selling a storm-damaged house.
Estates and probate
Delray estates are probated in Palm Beach County’s Fifteenth Judicial Circuit, and many heirs live out of state. We close with remote signing. See selling an inherited house.

Questions
Delray Beach Seller Questions
Can you buy my house in a Delray Beach historic district?
Yes. We buy cottages and older homes in the downtown historic districts as they are. Exterior work there generally goes through the city’s historic preservation review, which is one reason dated historic homes are slow to sell to buyers who want to renovate. That review becomes our problem after closing, not yours.
Do you buy villas and condos in Kings Point, High Point and the Villages of Oriole?
Yes, including units with a pending special assessment or an association approval process. We take over the assessment at closing and handle the approval paperwork, and because we buy as investors, 55-plus occupancy rules do not block the sale.
How fast can you close in Delray Beach?
In as little as seven days once title is clear. Condo and HOA files depend on how quickly the association issues the estoppel certificate and any approval, and we request both the day you sign.
Is Delray Beach a buyer's or seller's market right now?
Redfin’s August 2026 figures put the Delray Beach median sale price at $507,164, up 8.5% year over year, with a median of 80 days on market. Prices are firm, but a home that needs work still waits, and 55-plus condos with assessments wait longest.
Are "we buy houses" companies legit, and how do I check one?
Some are and some are not. Check four things: the company is the named buyer on the purchase contract (not “and/or assigns” so it can flip the contract), it can show proof of funds, it closes through a licensed Florida title company that you can call yourself, and it never asks you for money up front. We meet all four and will show you each one.
Does a cash home sale get reported to the IRS?
Usually yes. The closing agent reports the sale on IRS Form 1099-S, the same as a financed sale. Whether you owe tax depends on your gain and on exclusions such as the one for a primary residence, so ask a tax professional about your situation.
