Let me be direct about something: I've walked hundreds of properties across Maryland and Virginia and some of the ones that needed the most work from a cleanup standpoint have been the best deals for everyone involved. A hoarded or heavily cluttered house is not the end of the road, it's just a house that needs a specific kind of buyer. That buyer is me.

I buy hoarder properties and heavily cluttered houses as-is. That means I walk the property, assess what's there, factor the cleanout costs into my number, and make you an offer the same day. You don't hire a junk removal crew. You don't spend weekends hauling things out. You don't stage anything or make any part of it presentable for listing photos. You tell me what you want to keep, you pack those things, and you leave the rest. My team handles everything after we close.

The most common scenario I see: an adult child is selling a parent's home after they've passed or moved to assisted living. The parent accumulated decades of possessions, in some cases, full rooms that haven't been accessible in years, stacked floor to ceiling. For the family, the idea of showing that house to strangers through a traditional listing process is mortifying. For me, it's Tuesday. I approach every one of these properties with the same professional discretion I bring to any transaction. My crew is trained on these situations. What happens in the house stays in the house.

Beyond the emotional aspect, hoarder properties present real practical challenges for traditional buyers, they can't get accurate repair estimates, lenders won't finance them, and even cash investors often balk at the cleanup scope. My background is construction; I know exactly what a cleanout, to, renovation project costs because I've priced hundreds of them. That expertise is what makes me able to make a fair, honest offer where others won't even try.

A bit about me

Third generation contractor and investor.

I grew up on jobsites watching my dad's crew build from the ground up. Worked as a mortgage broker before going full-time, then started flipping my own houses. Hands-on, years in the field.

Now every deal I close runs through Nobu Holdings - fast, clean, no fees to sellers, no surprises at the table.

Questions about selling hoarder properties

Do I have to clean out the house before you make an offer?
No. I make my offer based on what the property is worth cleaned and renovated, and I factor the cleanout cost into that number myself. You don't move a single item. Leave everything exactly as it is, furniture, personal belongings, years of accumulated items. I handle the full estate cleanout after closing.
Will the condition of a hoarded house affect your offer significantly?
The extent of hoarding affects the cleanout cost, which affects the offer number. A property with heavy hoarding that requires professional junk removal and significant cleaning before renovation can run $15,000-$30,000 in cleanup costs alone. I account for that honestly in my offer. What I won't do is treat you poorly, I've bought dozens of these and I approach every one the same way.
I'm selling on behalf of a relative who hoarded. It's embarrassing. How do you handle this?
This is one of the most common reasons people call me. Adult children selling a parent's home, siblings dealing with an estate, personal representatives who inherited the responsibility. I walk these properties regularly. My crew is experienced, professional, and discreet. No judgment, no gossip, just a walk, through, a number, and a clean path to closing.
How fast can you close on a hoarder property?
The sale itself can close in 7-21 days depending on the title situation. The cleanup happens after I own the property, that's my problem, not yours. So the timeline for you is just the standard closing timeline. You don't have to wait for a cleanout to be done before we can close.
