Sell your Indianapolis house for cash
Indianapolis and Marion County share one government, and the housing runs from older homes on the near east and west sides to post-war ranches farther out. I'm based in Wichita and buy Indy houses in any condition.

Selling in Indianapolis: what to know
- Foreclosure in Indiana
- Judicial (through the courts)
- Indiana foreclosures go through the courts. The lender files suit, gets a judgment, and the house is sold at a sheriff's sale. That process usually takes many months, which often leaves time to sell first.
- Probate
- When someone dies owning a house in Indianapolis, the estate is usually handled through the Probate Division of the Marion Superior Court.
- Indiana's property tax caps
- Indiana caps property taxes at 1% of assessed value on a homestead and 2% on other homes, including rentals. If you inherit a parent's house and don't live in it, the homestead deduction and the 1% cap go away, so the tax bill can rise a lot while you decide what to do.
- Behind on property taxes in Marion County
- In Indiana, houses with delinquent taxes go to the county's annual tax sale. After the sale, the owner generally has a year to redeem by paying the taxes plus penalties, or the buyer can apply for a tax deed. If you sell first, the back taxes are paid off from the sale at closing.
What I hear from Indianapolis sellers
- Older homes on the near east and west sides that need major repairs.
- Inherited houses where the family needs to sell through the probate division.
- Landlords with rentals they're ready to sell as-is.
Indianapolis questions
Do you really buy houses in Indianapolis if you're based in Wichita?
Yes. I'm based in Wichita, Kansas, and I buy houses in Indianapolis and its suburbs across Marion County. You talk to me, Brayden, from the first call to closing, not a call center. Closing happens at a Indiana title company or closing attorney, so you don't have to travel.
How does foreclosure work in Indiana, and can I still sell?
Indiana foreclosures go through the courts. The lender files suit, gets a judgment, and the house is sold at a sheriff's sale. That process usually takes many months, which often leaves time to sell first. A sale that closes before the foreclosure sale can pay off the loan, if the price covers what's owed. I'm not a lawyer, so talk to one or a HUD-approved housing counselor about your options too.
I inherited a house in Indianapolis. Can I sell it before probate is finished?
Usually someone needs legal authority to sell, typically an executor or administrator appointed through the Probate Division of the Marion Superior Court. I can make an offer now and set the closing for after that's in place. A probate attorney can tell you exactly what your situation needs.
Will you buy the house yourself, or assign the contract?
Sometimes I buy a house myself, and sometimes I assign my purchase contract to another investor who closes instead. Either way, your price and closing date are the ones in the contract you sign, and I'll tell you up front how your sale will work.
How fast can you close on a house in Indianapolis?
Closing is usually within two to three weeks once the title company or closing attorney has what it needs. If you need more time, pick a later date.
Do I need to make repairs or clean the house out?
No. I buy as-is. You can leave behind anything you don't want to take with you.
