Termites do their worst work out of sight, hollowing out joists, studs, and subfloors before anyone notices. By the time the damage is visible, it can mean serious structural repairs — and in a traditional sale, a termite finding is one of the fastest ways to lose a buyer. Many lenders even require a clear termite inspection before they'll fund a loan.
We buy houses with termite damage across Evansville and the Tri-State, as-is and for cash. Whether the infestation is active or you're dealing with the damage it left behind, we take the home in its current condition and handle the repairs and treatment ourselves.
How it works
- Tell us about the house — address and condition. Two minutes.
- Get a fair cash offer — based on real Evansville-area values. No obligation.
- You choose closing — 7 days or on your schedule. We pay all closing costs.
Why termite damage derails a sale
The Ohio Valley's warm, humid climate is prime territory for subterranean termites, and the structural damage they cause makes buyers and lenders nervous. A failed termite inspection — known here as a WDI report — can stop a mortgage cold, and buyers fear the repair bill and the possibility that the colony is still active. That combination leaves these homes stranded on the market.
We buy as-is, infestation included
You don't need to call an exterminator, get a treatment plan, or repair the damaged wood before talking to us. We expect termite issues and price the home accordingly. After closing, both the treatment and the structural repairs become our responsibility — that's part of what we do.
Skip treatment and repair costs
Termite treatment plus repairing compromised framing can add up quickly, and there's no guarantee a finicky buyer will accept the work once it's done. Selling as-is lets you avoid both the cost and the gamble. You take a straightforward cash offer instead of funding repairs on a house you're leaving.
Structural damage is our problem, not yours
When termites have weakened load-bearing framing, the fix can be extensive. We assess that as part of our offer and take on whatever the home needs after closing. You're not on the hook for surprises uncovered once walls come open — that risk transfers to us.
An honest assessment
We'll be transparent that termite damage factors into our number, and we'll explain how. Weighed against treatment, structural repairs, and a sale that keeps falling through over the inspection, an as-is cash sale often leaves Evansville owners better off — and it closes fast, with no lender to satisfy.
Local buyers, any condition
We serve Evansville and the surrounding Tri-State — Newburgh, Chandler, Boonville, and Henderson, KY, across Vanderburgh, Warrick, and Posey counties. From minor damage to major structural concerns, we'll make an offer. Reach out for a free, no-obligation cash offer.
Frequently asked questions
Can I sell a house with termite damage?
Yes. We buy as-is for cash, active infestation or not, and handle both treatment and repairs ourselves after closing.
Do I need to treat the termites or repair the wood first?
No. You don't need an exterminator or any repairs before selling — we assess the condition and make a fair offer as-is.
Why does termite damage stop a normal sale?
Lenders often require a clear termite (WDI) inspection to fund a loan, and buyers fear the repair cost — so a finding frequently kills the deal.
What if the structural damage is worse than it looks?
We expect that possibility and price for it, so the risk of hidden structural damage becomes ours once we close.
Do you still buy if the termites are still active?
Yes. An active infestation doesn't stop us — we handle the treatment ourselves after closing along with any structural repairs. You don't need to have the colony exterminated before selling.
Where do you buy?
