How Fast Can a Cash Buyer Close?

Cash sales remove the slowest part of a traditional real estate transaction: the buyer's lender. No appraisal, no underwriting, no last-minute conditions. So how fast can you actually close? Usually one to two weeks — sometimes faster, sometimes slower depending on what shows up in title.

The typical timeline

• •Day 1: You submit your property and we send a written offer.
• •Day 2–3: Offer accepted; we open title with a Louisiana title company.
• •Day 4–10: Title runs the standard searches (deed, tax, liens, succession).
• •Day 10–14: Closing — you sign, we wire funds.

What slows a cash closing down

• •Open succession that needs to be completed first.
• •Title issues — old liens, missing heirs, prior boundary disputes.
• •Outstanding code violations or municipal liens.
• •Tenant coordination on occupied sales.

None of these are deal-breakers — they're just timing factors. A good title company knows how to clear most issues; they just take a few extra days.

When you need it slow instead of fast

Plenty of sellers don't want to close in two weeks. If you need 30, 45, or 60 days to coordinate a move, settle a succession, or wait for the next chapter, that's fine. We adjust to your calendar — speed is a feature, not a requirement.
