Foundation issues, roof damage, fire, flood, mold, outdated systems, or years of deferred maintenance. Mike Knight buys houses in Chattanooga in any condition for cash. You will not fix a single thing before closing.
These are the types of properties Mike buys regularly in Chattanooga. If your situation is not listed, call anyway.
Cracks, settling, bowing walls, or structural shifting. Conventional buyers and their lenders often refuse these outright. Mike buys them.
Active leaks, missing shingles, partial or full roof collapse. No matter the severity, repairs are Mike's responsibility after closing, not yours.
Partial or major fire damage, smoke saturation, and uninhabitable structures. Mike has the background to assess and restore fire-damaged homes in Chattanooga.
Flooded basements, water-damaged floors and walls, rotted subfloors, and chronic drainage or moisture issues are all situations Mike has worked through before.
Black mold, widespread mold, or persistent moisture problems that have made the home unsellable through traditional channels. Mike handles remediation after closing.
Knob-and-tube wiring, aluminum wiring, failed HVAC systems, galvanized pipes, and other outdated infrastructure that stops conventional buyers cold.
City citations, unsafe structure notices, condemned properties, or unpermitted additions that create legal complications for a traditional sale.
Severe clutter, years of accumulated belongings, biohazard cleanup needed, or properties that require full gut-out. Take what you want and leave the rest.
Know Your Options
The house had been sitting for two years after a kitchen fire. The family had been paying taxes and insurance on it the whole time and had no idea what to do. They reached out to Mike and had a cash offer within 48 hours. They said the offer was fair given the condition and they were relieved to finally have it off their plate. The whole process took less than two weeks.
Simple Process
Share the address and describe what you know about the condition, including any known issues. You do not need a formal inspection report or contractor estimates. Mike will assess everything himself, often with a brief walkthrough.
Using his construction background and current Chattanooga market data, Mike evaluates after-repair value and realistic repair costs, then presents a fair cash offer, typically within 24 to 48 hours. No pressure, no obligation to accept.
Close in as few as 7 days or later if you need more time. You choose your closing date. Take what you want from the property. Leave what you do not want. Mike handles everything from that point forward.
What Makes Mike Different
Most cash buyers who offer to buy your home as-is are reading numbers off a spreadsheet. Mike Knight is a former roofing and construction company owner and licensed construction project manager who has personally evaluated thousands of properties and supervised real renovation projects in Chattanooga.
When Mike evaluates a house with a failed roof, foundation cracks, or fire damage, he is not guessing at repair costs or padding numbers with a wide margin. He knows what a Chattanooga roofer charges, what foundation repair runs in Hamilton County, and what a full gut-out after a fire realistically involves. That knowledge produces offers that are grounded in real local numbers, not formulas.
With Mike, you are not expected to disclose every hidden defect in advance or have a professional inspection done at your expense. He walks the property himself, evaluates what is visible, and makes an offer that accounts for the unknown. If something additional is found after he takes ownership, that is his responsibility, not a reason to reduce your price after the fact.
Properties with major damage routinely fail conventional appraisals and lender inspections. Homes that have been condemned, have active code violations, or are in genuinely poor condition cannot receive conventional mortgage financing, which means conventional buyers are simply not an option for you. Mike is a private cash buyer. There are no banks to satisfy, no appraisers to appease, and no financing conditions that can fall through at the last moment. When he says he is buying your house, it closes.
If your Chattanooga property is in rough shape and you are not sure what to do, call or text Mike. You will get an honest assessment and a fair offer, at no cost and with no pressure.
