Brothers Buy Property
We buy houses in Duluth, MN
A direct offer on your Duluth house, in any condition, closing on the date you choose. No agent, no fees, no showings.
What is different about selling in Duluth?
Duluth's housing stock runs old and the hillside terrain makes for steep lots, tuck-under garages and a lot of houses that have had water find its way in at some point. Buyers on the open market flinch at those. We do not.
If your house is on the hill, has knob and tube somewhere in it, or has a basement that takes water in spring, none of that stops us buying it.
How does the legal side work here?
Probate and foreclosure filings for Duluth properties go through St. Louis County. Minnesota foreclosure is usually by advertisement, with a notice period, a sheriff's sale and then a redemption period during which you still own the home.
Where in Duluth we buy
All of it. If you are just outside and not sure, send the address anyway and we will tell you straight.
Situations we handle in Duluth
An inherited house
Probate, siblings, and a house full of belongings. Here is what actually has to happen, and what you can skip.
A house in a divorce
Neither of you wants to manage a listing together. A direct sale ends it without months of coordination.
A house in foreclosure
You have more time than most people assume, and selling is on the table right up until the sheriff's sale.
A rental with tenants
You do not have to evict anyone or wait out a lease. The lease comes with the house.
A house that needs repairs
Bad roof, dead furnace, water in the basement. None of it stops us, and none of it needs fixing first.
A vacant house
An empty house costs money every month it sits, and winter up here makes it worse.
Duluth questions we get asked
Do you buy houses on the Duluth hillside with old wiring or a wet basement?
Yes. Steep lots, knob-and-tube, tuck-under garages and basements that take water in spring are normal for Duluth housing stock and normal for us. Those are the exact features that make open-market buyers walk, which is often why people call us instead.
How fast can you close on a Duluth house?
Usually a few weeks, limited mostly by how quickly the title work clears through St. Louis County. If you need longer, that is fine too. We have closed months out for sellers waiting on a new place.
Will my neighbours know I am selling?
Not unless you tell them. There is no sign in the yard, no listing, and nobody walking through on a Sunday. Several of our sellers cared about that more than the price.
What would we pay for your Duluth house?
Tell us the address. It costs nothing and you are never obligated to take the number.
