Brayden Buys Homes

Sell your St. Petersburg house for cash

St. Petersburg is a city of 1920s bungalows in Old Northeast and Kenwood, mid-century block homes across the north and west sides, and low-lying streets near the water. I'm based in Wichita and buy St. Pete houses as-is, including ones with flood damage.

How selling your St. Petersburg house works

  1. 1

    Tell me about the house

    Answer four questions here or call me. It takes about two minutes, and there's no obligation.

  2. 2

    Get a written offer

    I look at recent sales nearby and what the house needs, then send a cash offer, usually within 24 hours. I'll explain how I got the number.

  3. 3

    Close on the date you pick

    If you accept, a local title company handles the paperwork and you're paid at closing. If you don't, that's the end of it.

Selling in St. Petersburg: what to know

Foreclosure in Florida
Judicial (through the courts)
Florida foreclosures go through the circuit court, and the house is sold at a clerk's auction only after a final judgment. That usually takes many months, which leaves room to sell on your own terms.
Probate
When someone dies owning a house in St. Petersburg, the estate is usually handled through the Probate Division of the Pinellas County Circuit Court (Sixth Judicial Circuit).

What I hear from St. Petersburg sellers

  • Houses that took water in a hurricane or storm surge and need more than the owner wants to rebuild.
  • Older block homes facing a roof replacement before insurance will renew.
  • Inherited homes from parents who retired here, with the heirs living out of state.

St. Petersburg questions

Do you really buy houses in St. Petersburg if you're based in Wichita?

Yes. I'm based in Wichita, Kansas, and I buy houses in St. Petersburg and its suburbs across Pinellas County. You talk to me, Brayden, from the first call to closing, not a call center. Closing happens at a Florida title company or closing attorney, so you don't have to travel.

How does foreclosure work in Florida, and can I still sell?

Florida foreclosures go through the circuit court, and the house is sold at a clerk's auction only after a final judgment. That usually takes many months, which leaves room to sell on your own terms. 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 St. Petersburg. 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 Pinellas County Circuit Court (Sixth Judicial Circuit). 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 St. Petersburg?

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.
