A worn-out Fountain Square cottage? Not a problem.
Fountain Square holds some of the oldest housing on the near-southeast side, and old cottages and doubles come with old-house problems. We expect them. We buy houses that need serious work every week, and you don't lift a finger.
-
Knob-and-tube and old panels
Original wiring and undersized service on century-old cottages, we factor it in
-
Aging plumbing and old systems
Galvanized pipes, an old furnace, and worn-out kitchens and baths don't scare us off
-
Settling and foundation issues
Cracked plaster, a leaning porch, and a settling basement are common down here

Marion County arrears or a lien can usually be cleared from the sale proceeds at closing

Sell your occupied double or small rental with tenants in place, no move-out needed first

Understanding Fountain Square's real estate market
A cultural district in the middle of a fast turnaround
Fountain Square sits just southeast of downtown around its namesake fountain, with the Fountain Square Theatre, murals, music venues, and the IndyGo Red Line running up Virginia Avenue. It has gone from overlooked to one of the city's most in-demand near-downtown neighborhoods in barely a decade. For an owner, that rising demand is real, but it sits on top of a housing stock that a traditional, financed sale often struggles to move.
What the citywide numbers say
The typical Indianapolis home was worth about $223,697 in April 2026, up 1.0 percent year over year (Zillow ZHVI), while the median sale price was around $245,123, essentially flat at up 0.05 percent (Redfin, April 2026). The clearest shift is speed: homes took a median of 55 days to sell in March 2026, up from 27 days a year earlier (Redfin). Values vary widely by pocket in the near-southeast, so condition and appraisal risk still decide how fast a house actually closes.
Why older cottages and doubles trade for cash
The cottages, shotgun houses, and doubles that give Fountain Square its texture are the same homes a mortgage lender scrutinizes hardest. Knob-and-tube wiring, old plumbing, or a settling foundation can sink a financed offer at inspection or appraisal. A cash buyer removes the lender, the appraisal contingency, and the repair demands, which is why so much of the older near-southeast stock changes hands for cash.
Tired landlords and back-tax sellers cashing out
Fountain Square carries a heavy rental base, so many owners here are landlords ready to exit an occupied double, or owners carrying back taxes on a home that has climbed in value. Rising prices are a chance to cash out without funding a rehab or waiting out a lease. Propcash makes a fair cash offer based on local Indianapolis market data, buys with tenants in place, and can clear liens at closing.
A direct cash homebuyer is a company that purchases houses itself, with its own funds, rather than listing them for sale or finding buyers on a seller's behalf. Propcash is a direct cash homebuyer: we make the offer, we are the buyer, and the seller pays no commissions or fees. Sellers skip repairs, listings, and showings, and pick their own closing date.
Common situations we help Fountain Square owners navigate
Whatever brought you here, Propcash can make you a fair cash offer.
Done being a landlord
Tired of managing an occupied double or a small Fountain Square rental? Sell with tenants in place, no eviction and no waiting out the lease. Send us the rent roll and we factor it in.
Cashing out as values rise
Held your house since before the neighborhood turned around? Rising demand is a chance to sell without funding a full rehab first. We show you how we reached our number so you can weigh a clean exit.
Back taxes weighing on you
Behind on Marion County property taxes? Those balances can usually be paid from the sale proceeds at closing, so the arrears do not block your sale. Timing matters, so it helps to move early.
Cottage needs a full rehab
Knob-and-tube, old plumbing, a settling foundation. The features that stall a financed sale are ones we expect. Skip the rewire and the roof and sell to a buyer who plans to restore it.
Inherited a near-southeast home
Inherited a Fountain Square cottage or double and living out of state, or simply not looking to renovate an old house? Get a cash offer and sell as-is. We can work with a property that still needs to clear probate.
Divorce or estate settlement
Dividing a Fountain Square home in a divorce or estate goes faster with one straightforward cash number and a set closing date. We keep it clear so everyone can sign off and move on without months on the market.
The Propcash Promise
We don't believe in high-pressure sales tactics. Here's how we put that commitment into action for Fountain Square sellers.
No expiration date

No aggressive follow up
We follow up on your schedule. We'll never send unsolicited marketing emails, drip campaigns, or phone blasts.
We'll tell you if we're not the right buyer
If listing with an agent would serve you better, we'll point you to a local agent. We're always straightforward and transparent.
Frequently asked questions about selling in Fountain Square
How fast can I sell my Fountain Square house for cash?
Faster than the open market. A traditional Indianapolis sale now takes a median of 55 days just to reach a contract, up from 27 days a year earlier (Redfin, March 2026), before you wait on the buyer's loan. Propcash is a direct cash homebuyer, so there is no lender, no appraisal, and no showings. When speed matters we can close in as few as 7 days, on a fair cash offer built from local market data.
What parts of Fountain Square and the near-southeast side do you buy in?
We buy throughout the 46203 area: the Fountain Square core around Virginia Avenue, Prospect Street, and Shelby Street, plus Fletcher Place, Bates-Hendricks, Holy Cross, Cottage Home, and the nearby Near Eastside blocks. Worker's cottage, shotgun house, double, or small bungalow, we buy it as-is.
Can I sell a Fountain Square double or rental with tenants in place?
Yes, and it is one of the most common situations we handle here. Fountain Square and the surrounding streets are full of doubles and small rentals. We buy tenant-occupied property, so you do not have to wait out a lease or move anyone out before you sell. Send us the rent roll and lease terms and we factor them into the offer.
My Fountain Square cottage needs a full rehab. Is that a problem?
Not for us. Much of the area's stock is late-1800s to 1920s worker's cottages and doubles with knob-and-tube wiring, plaster over lath, old plumbing, and a settling foundation. Those are exactly the issues that scare off a financed buyer and stall a listing. We price the work into our offer, so you fix nothing and clean nothing.
Can you buy if I owe back property taxes in Marion County?
Often yes. Back property taxes and other liens can usually be paid out of the sale proceeds at closing, which is one big reason owners of older near-southeast homes use a cash buyer instead of a traditional listing. If you are worried about a Marion County tax sale, timing matters, so send us what is owed and we will walk you through how it clears at closing.
Values here are rising fast. Should I just list instead?
It depends on the house and your timeline. Fountain Square has gentrified quickly, but a listing still means repairs, showings, financing risk, and a median of 55 days on market citywide. If your home needs work, is tenant-occupied, or you just need a certain, fast close, a cash sale trades a share of retail value for speed and certainty. We show you our math so you can compare it against listing.
Are there really no fees or commissions?
No, there are none. No agent commissions (about 5 to 6 percent in Indianapolis), no closing costs, and no listing or service fees at all. Propcash pays the closing costs, so what you accept is what you keep.
Do cash buyers pay a fair price in Fountain Square?
A cash offer trades a share of full retail value for speed, certainty, and an as-is sale with no repairs or fees. Whether that tradeoff is worth it depends on your house and your situation. Propcash makes a fair cash offer built on local market data and shows you how we reached the number, so you can weigh it against listing with the math in front of you.
How is Propcash different from the we buy houses signs around Indianapolis?
Those signs tend to open with a single low number and hope you sign fast. Propcash buys your house directly, bases the offer on real near-southeast market data, and shows the math behind it. There is no expiration and no obligation, so you are free to compare or pass.
What happens after I submit my property information?
Expect a response in about a day. We line your home up against recent local sales, send a fair cash offer, and a point of contact talks you through it. Accept and we schedule closing for your date, decline and you owe nothing.
