Markets we serve

We buy houses in Los Angeles, San Diego, the Bay Area, and everywhere in between

California is really several housing markets stacked together, from the sprawl of Southern California to the tight inventory around the Bay. We build every offer on your own city's numbers, never a statewide average. Wherever your house sits in California, we want to make you an offer.

How it works

How selling your California house to Propcash works

1

Tell us about your California property

An LA bungalow? A San Diego condo? A Bay Area house that needs work? It doesn't matter. Answer a few quick questions. Two minutes, no obligation.

2

Get your cash offer

We line your house up against recent nearby sales and the numbers in your own market, then hand you a fair cash offer. We walk you through how we landed on it, and the offer carries no expiration date.

3

Review your offer and close

Review our offer and accept it or walk away. If you accept, we open escrow with a California title company and close in as few as 7 days, or on whatever date suits your move. Either way, no fees.

No repairs needed

Sell your California house as-is, in any condition

A house that needs work is right in our wheelhouse, and in a market where contractors and permits cost a fortune, that matters. Skip the contractor quotes, the punch list, and the cleanout, and head straight for the closing table.

  • Major systems at the end of their life

    Aging roofs, old HVAC, knob-and-tube wiring, and dated plumbing, we price it all in

  • Foundation or structural issues

    Cracks, settling, hillside slippage, and seismic retrofits don't scare us off

  • Inherited houses full of belongings

    Take what you want and leave the rest. We handle the cleanout

  • Tenants still living there

    Don't wait out the lease. Sell with tenants and their leases in place

  • Fire, smoke, or water damage

    From wildfire-adjacent damage to a burst pipe, we've seen it across California and still buy

Prices are high and equity is deep, but supply is tightening and some metros move faster than others, so a house that is updated and shows well may still net more on the open market. A cash sale is the better fit when speed and certainty matter more than the last dollar: an inherited house facing a Prop 19 reassessment, a rent-controlled unit you are ready to exit, or repairs you would rather not fund at California prices. We open escrow with a California title company on the date you pick, and if listing is genuinely the smarter play for you, we'll say so.

What is a direct cash homebuyer?

A direct cash homebuyer is a company that buys houses outright with its own funds and closes in cash, instead of listing a house or rounding up a buyer on the owner's behalf. Propcash is a direct cash homebuyer: we are the buyer, we make the offer ourselves, and the seller owes no agent commissions or fees. You skip the repairs, the escrow-stretching contingencies, the showings, and the listing, and you choose the closing date.

Who we work with

Common situations we help California homeowners navigate

No matter what put you here, we can put a fair cash offer on your California house.

Behind on mortgage payments

California foreclosures are usually non-judicial, running from a notice of default through a notice of sale to a trustee's sale over roughly 200 days. Selling for cash can pay off the loan before that sale date and protect your credit.

Inherited a house you don't want

We know how California probate works, and how Prop 19 can reassess an inherited house to current value and raise the property taxes. Sell as-is, take what you want, and leave the rest.

Done being a landlord

Sell your California rental with tenants in place, no eviction required. We take on properties bound by AB 1482 and local rent-control ordinances that make a traditional sale a headache.

House needs major repairs

When the repair estimate dwarfs your budget, hand the project to a buyer who was going to renovate anyway. Contractor and permit costs run high here, and we build that into the offer.

Divorce or separation

One clear number, shown with the reasoning, and a closing date that works for both sides. California is a community-property state, so a clean, fast sale can simplify dividing the house.

Relocating for work

Turn your California equity into cash and set a closing date that lines up with your first day in the next city, so no listing is left hanging behind you.

Our commitment

The Propcash Promise

We don't run high-pressure sales plays. Here is how that commitment shows up for California sellers.

No expiration date

Take as long as you need with the offer. No countdown clock, no deadline to sign by, no pressure to decide today.

No aggressive follow up

We only follow up when you ask us to. No drip campaigns, no call-center sequences, no repeat dials.

We'll tell you if we're not the right buyer

If listing with a local agent would clearly net you more and you have the time for it, we'll say so and point you their way. We give it to you straight, every time.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about selling in California

How fast can you close on a California house?

We can close in as few as 7 days when speed is what you need. California sales run through escrow and a title company, and a cash purchase skips the lender underwriting and appraisal steps that stretch a financed deal toward 45 or 60 days. If you would rather line up your next place first or push the date out, that is fine too. You choose the closing date.

What California cities and neighborhoods do you cover?

We buy houses across the state. That includes Los Angeles and Southern California, San Diego County, and the San Francisco Bay Area, along with Sacramento, San Jose, Oakland, Long Beach, Fresno, and the smaller cities in between. Wherever your house sits in California, we want to make you a cash offer on it.

Are there any fees or commissions?

No fees at all. You pay no agent commission, no closing costs on our end, and no listing or service charges. Propcash costs California sellers nothing, and the figure you agree to is what you take home at closing.

Do I owe California state tax when I sell my house?

Probably some, depending on your situation. California has a state income tax among the highest in the country, and it taxes capital gains as ordinary income rather than at a lower rate, so gains on a sale can be taxed up to about 13.3% at the state level, on top of any federal capital gains tax. The federal primary-residence exclusion may still shield part of a gain. We are not tax advisors, so talk with a California tax professional about your specific circumstances before you sell.

What is the California housing market like right now?

As of May 2026, Redfin reports a median sale price of $782,221 across California, up 2.3% year over year, with a median of 42 days on market and about 5.6% fewer houses for sale than a year ago. Prices are high and equity is deep, but some metros move faster than others, so a well-updated house that shows well may net more on the open market. A cash sale fits sellers who would rather trade the last dollar of price for speed and certainty.

My house needs a lot of work. Will you still buy it?

Yes. We buy as-is, in any condition. An old roof, a cracked foundation, tired systems, fire or smoke damage, or decades of deferred upkeep are all fine, and that matters in California where contractor and permit costs run high. You put nothing toward repairs or cleaning ahead of closing.

Can I sell a California rental with tenants still in it?

Yes. We take on tenant-occupied California houses along with the leases already in place, so there is no working around AB 1482 or a local rent-control ordinance and no just-cause eviction to start before you sell. Send over the leases and rent roll and we handle the rest.

What happens after I submit my property details?

Usually inside 24 hours we line your house up against recent nearby sales and send a cash offer. Your point of contact talks you through exactly how we got to the number. Say yes and we open escrow with a California title company for the date you choose, or walk away at no cost. Nothing obligates you at any stage.
