The situation
We buy hoarder houses — no cleanout
Hoarder houses usually come with a story that isn't the seller's fault. A parent's house you can't face. A spouse whose rooms you stopped opening. A diagnosis that came too late. You didn't cause it, and you don't have to clean it to sell it.
We buy hoarder houses at any level — Level 1 through Level 5 on the Clutter Hoarding Scale. You don't clean anything. We handle the contents, the disposal, the donation hauls. You get a cash offer on the house as it stands today, and you walk away from whatever's inside.
Merrillville local expertise
We know Merrillville.
Merrillville sits south of Gary at the I-65 / US-30 junction. Mostly 1970s-90s subdivision stock — ranches, tri-levels, brick colonials.
We buy sell a hoarder house out in The Region, and across Lake County in Indiana. Hoarder house. No cleanout.
Level 5 is still a yes
Level 5 hoarding — biohazard, structural risk, pest infestation — is still a yes, with a different number. The number moves with the scope of the cleanup we inherit. We tell you what it is at the walkthrough. We don't say no.
We walk through hoarder houses every month. Not one walkthrough has ended with a lecture.
You open the door. We walk it.
That's how every hoarder-house walkthrough starts. You open the door, we walk what we can reach, we leave with a number. You don't narrate. You don't apologize. You don't need to be there.
Nothing gets photographed
No photography. No listing. No video. What's inside stays inside. The only people who see it are us and the cleanup crew we hire after closing.
Cleanout-first sales cost $10K-$50K for a 2-3 bedroom property, more at Level 5. Selling to us closes that gap — no cleanout cost, no time, no coordination.
Questions
What Merrillville sellers ask us.
Is the house too far gone?
No. Level 5 — biohazard, structural risk, pest infestation — is still a yes, with a different number. We walk it. We tell you. We don't say no.
Are you going to make us feel bad?
No. We walk through hoarder houses every month — not one walkthrough has ended with a lecture. We're here for the house, not the story.
Can we just let you in and not explain?
That's how every hoarder-house walkthrough starts. You open the door, we walk what we can reach, we leave with a number. You don't narrate.
The city sent someone about the property condition. Does that change things?
Not materially. Chicago code enforcement on hoarder-adjacent properties is common after a death or a complaint. We deal with the city after we close. Any fines accrued go into our number, not yours.
My parent had this house for 40 years. Can you still buy?
Yes. Forty years of contents is exactly what we're set up to handle. We buy it, we clean it out, we work through it. That's the house we know.
What if there's mold, pests, or animals?
Expected. We underwrite it. The cleanup crew handles remediation after close. You don't call anyone before we come out.
Will you tell my neighbors or family anything?
No. No sign, no listing, no photos. Nobody sees the inside but us and the cleanup crew after close.
Can you handle a walkthrough without disturbing my ill parent?
Yes. Tell us up front, we walk quietly, we're in and out in under an hour. We've done walkthroughs while the owner was sleeping in the next room.
