Who we work with

Most of our sellers are not in a normal selling situation.

A house on the open market needs to be clean, repaired, staged and patient. When one of those is missing, the traditional process stops working. These are the cases we handle every week.

Inherited property

A house left to several siblings, often out of state, often with belongings still inside. We buy as-is and coordinate with probate counsel where needed.

Behind on payments

Pre-foreclosure, tax arrears, or liens against the property. Time matters here, so we tell you quickly whether we can help and what the number looks like.

Tired of being a landlord

Non-paying tenants, deferred maintenance, a unit you no longer want to manage from another state. We buy occupied properties and handle the tenant conversation.

Repairs beyond your budget

Roof, foundation, plumbing, fire or water damage. You do not fix anything, clean anything, or spend a dollar before closing.

Divorce or relocation

When the property has to convert to cash on a fixed date, certainty is worth more than a listing price you may never get.

A listing that expired

Months on market, price cuts, buyers who walked after inspection. We are not another agent asking for six more months.

How it works

Four steps, and you know exactly where you stand.

No obligation at any stage, and no black box. You will know that we are buying, how the purchase is funded, and who signs off on the number before you sign anything.

01

Tell us about the property

Address, condition, occupancy, and what you are trying to accomplish. Five minutes on the form or on the phone. No showings, no lockbox, no sign in the yard.

02

Our analysts price it

We pull comparable sales, estimate the repair scope, and check title and occupancy. You get the same worksheet we use, so you can judge the number for yourself.

03

Internal underwriting signs off

Every file goes to our in-house underwriting team for final approval and capital allocation before the offer leaves the building. That is why the number we send back inside 24 hours is a committed number, not a hopeful one.

04

You choose the closing date

We open title, complete our inspection, and close at a reputable title company or attorney's office. Funds are wired or a check is issued on the date you named.

How we pay for the houses we buy

We are privately funded, and we will walk you through exactly how.

We are the buyer, and we use our own committed capital to purchase. In plain terms: our analysts price the property, our internal underwriting team approves it, and the funds are already allocated before the offer reaches you.

We buy with our own capital

Purchases are funded through our balance sheet and committed capital from our private lending relationships. The offer you receive is ours, and the money behind it is already set aside for your file.

Bank lines and institutional partners

Our capital stack varies by deal and market: private banking and warehouse credit lines, plus hedge-fund and private-credit partners who fund residential acquisitions at scale. That mix is what lets us close in 14 to 30 days without a retail mortgage.

An internal underwriting team gives final approval

Acquisitions price the property, but underwriting owns the decision. They verify comps, repair scope, title and payoff figures, then approve the funds. Once they sign off, the number in your agreement is the number at the closing table.

Why this matters to you. A funded buyer with internal approval means fewer surprises after you sign: nobody outside our team has to “look at it” first, no renegotiation because financing moved, and a closing date that holds. If any part of our structure affects your transaction, including any case where we bring in an affiliated partner, it is written into the agreement you sign, not discovered later.

An honest comparison

Our offer is not the highest number you will ever hear. It is the most certain.

A retail listing can beat us on price when a property is in good condition and you can wait. Here is the real trade-off, without the sales pitch.

Illustrative comparison of typical outcomes. Every property is underwritten individually and actual figures vary by market, condition and title status.
  Selling to Clean Slate Traditional listing
Offer price Below full retail, and that discount is what pays for speed and certainty Full market value, if the property shows well and appraises
Time to cash 14–30 days, or a later date you name 60–120 days including listing, contract and financing
Repairs and cleanout None. Leave what you do not want Usually required before listing and again after inspection
Showings None. One walkthrough by our team Open houses and buyer showings for as long as it takes
Commissions and fees None, and we pay standard closing costs Typically 5–6% commission plus seller concessions
Risk of falling through Low, because we are privately funded and approved before we send the offer Financing, appraisal and inspection can each end the deal
Who is actually buying Us, with private capital from bank lines and institutional partners An unknown buyer, subject to their lender's approval
Who approves the number Our in-house underwriting team, before you ever see it An outside appraiser and underwriter, weeks after you sign

What sellers say

The part people remember is how simple it was.

Most of our sellers came to us after a complicated year. What they talk about afterwards is the speed, the straight answers, and the fact that nothing changed at the end.

I sent the address on a Tuesday and had a written offer with the numbers behind it on Thursday. Their underwriting team had already approved it, so nothing moved between signing and closing. Eighteen days, one walkthrough, done.

Denise R. Inherited property · Tampa, FL

I had already been through two buyers who needed to “check with a partner.” This team told me upfront where their funding came from and who signs off. That was the difference. The wire hit on the date they promised.

Marcus T. Pre-foreclosure · Detroit, MI

Two tenants, a bad roof, and I live four states away. I did not clean, repair or fly anywhere. They handled the tenant conversation, sent updates without me chasing them, and closed on the date I picked.

Individual results vary by property, market, condition and title status. Timelines above describe those specific transactions, not a guarantee.

Our story

A team, a balance sheet, and a straight answer.

I was educated in New York, went to business school, and spent more than fifteen years doing corporate legal work on Wall Street before moving into real estate about a decade ago. That background is why this company runs on underwriting discipline rather than a scripted pitch.

Today Clean Slate is a team: acquisitions specialists who look at your property, analysts who price it, and an in-house underwriting group that approves the capital. You are not dealing with one person and a hope of finding funding later.

What we actually do is act as a guide, an exit, and a problem solver. Sometimes that means buying your property. Sometimes it means telling you that listing it, renting it, or holding it another year is the better decision for you. Either way, you get a straight answer and a path forward.

For investors and operators

The other half of the business.

We work with other investors from our network: landlords, rehabbers and small funds who see our properties before anything is marketed publicly, with the numbers we underwrote attached.

Slate Consulting Group also advises business owners outside real estate on strategy, structure, positioning and the documents that make a company credible to lenders and partners.

Questions we get first

Straight answers.

Is your offer an estimate or a real number?

It is a written offer with the assumptions attached, based on comparable sales and an estimated repair scope. It is subject to our walkthrough and clear title. If we find something materially different from what was described, we will tell you and explain any change rather than quietly renegotiate at the closing table.

Are you a real buyer, or are you looking for one?

We are the buyer. Purchases are funded with private capital: our own balance sheet plus committed lines from private banking relationships and institutional partners. Each offer is approved by our internal underwriting team before it is sent, so the funding is settled on our side before you ever see a number.

How are your purchases funded?

It varies by deal and market. Typically a combination of company capital, private banking and warehouse credit lines, and hedge-fund or private-credit partners who fund residential acquisitions. Your closing is handled by an independent title company or closing attorney, so you see the funds and the itemised figures in writing.

Do I pay anything?

No. There is no commission, no listing fee and no charge for the offer, and we cover standard closing costs. Your own liens, unpaid taxes and mortgage payoff still come out of the proceeds, which the title company itemises for you before signing.

Will you list my house instead of buying it?

We are a direct buyer, not a brokerage. If the honest answer is that listing the property nets you more and you can wait, we will say so and refer you to an agent we trust in your market.

What if the house is occupied or full of belongings?

Both are normal. We buy tenant-occupied properties and handle that conversation, and you can leave behind anything you do not want to move. No cleanout required.

How fast can this actually close?

Fourteen days is realistic when title is clean and there is no probate. Probate, unresolved liens or multiple heirs add time. We will give you a real timeline once we see the title work, not an optimistic one.

Might you assign the contract to another buyer?

Sometimes, yes. Where a property fits another investor's criteria better than ours, we may assign the contract. Your price, terms and closing date do not change, and this is disclosed in the agreement you sign.

Privately funded buyer
We purchase with private capital backed by bank lines and institutional partners, so the date and the number hold.
No obligation
Requesting an offer commits you to nothing. Plenty of people use our number as a benchmark and then list. That is a fine outcome.

Acquisitions reviews every submission, usually the same day, and our in-house underwriting team clears the number before it reaches you.
