A legitimate cash buyer closes through an independent title company, never asks you for money, shows proof of funds and puts every number in writing. Be careful with anyone who pressures you or won't say who is actually buying the house.
Seven questions to ask
- Who is buying my house? Ask if the company is buying it or planning to assign your contract to someone else.
- Which title company will close? It should be an independent, local title company.
- Can I see proof of funds? A bank letter or statement is normal.
- Do I pay anything? The answer should be no. No application fees, no "processing" fees.
- How did you get to this number? A real buyer can explain the offer.
- Can I cancel if the deal changes? Read the inspection and termination terms.
- Where are you located? Look for a real local presence and reviews over time.
Red flags
- Pressure to sign the same day or "this offer expires tonight".
- A high offer up front that drops sharply after an inspection.
- Requests to sign over the deed directly, outside a title company.
- Asking you to keep paying the mortgage after you've transferred the house.
Wholesaling in Oklahoma
Some companies don't buy houses at all: they put a house under contract and sell that contract to another investor. Oklahoma has tightened its rules around this practice. Whatever the company does, you deserve to know it before you sign, so ask directly.
