House Buyer Dan is a family-owned cash home buyer founded in Appleton, Wisconsin in 2010. We buy houses as-is across the Fox Valley and throughout Wisconsin, in any condition, with no commissions and no repairs required. We are the buyer, not an agent, so there is no listing, no showings and no waiting on a buyer to secure financing. Sellers receive a fair written offer within 24 hours and choose their own closing date, which can be as soon as seven days. We regularly help owners of inherited properties, houses in probate or foreclosure, rentals with tenants in place, and homes that need more work than the owner wants to take on. Closing is handled through a local title company.
