Get a cash offer on your Maury County property
1. Give us the address
That and a sentence about the state of the place. No tidying, no photographs, no appointment to keep.
2. A number, usually inside a day
Priced as it stands, free and with nothing owed. On a Maury County house we will also say whether we think you should be listing it, and in this market we often do.
3. Choose your closing date
Seven days if the title is clean and one person signs. Fourteen to twenty-one is more usual. A title company handles it, so an out-of-state owner never has to travel.
Growing faster than Montgomery County, and that is bad news for a cash offer
Maury County has grown 17.0% since 2020, faster than any county we work in, with Montgomery next at 13.6%. The median county house is worth $355,700, median county household income is $76,130, poverty is 8.7% and 70.9% of county homes are owned. (US Census Bureau QuickFacts, 2025 population estimates and American Community Survey 2020 to 2024.)
That is Nashville spreading south and it has not finished. In a market rising at this rate, waiting pays and a cash buyer prices against today. So list it. An agent will beat our number, and we are a hundred and ten miles west in Jackson besides.
The Maury County calls that still make sense
- A house that cannot be shown. Fire, water, a failed septic field or structural movement stops a sale at the lender, and growth does not change that answer.
- An inherited house in a family that cannot agree. At $355,700 the repair estimate is large, and three heirs in three states arguing about a roof is how a Maury County house sits empty through two selling seasons.
- A deadline somebody else set. A probate court or a job start date will not wait for next spring, however good next spring looks.
- Land with a house on it. Much of the county is still farmland, and a standard mortgage rarely stretches to acreage, outbuildings and a well.
And the thing most people in this county have not worked out
Median owner costs with a mortgage here are $1,666 a month and median rent is $1,300. So if the house is habitable and you are not against a deadline, letting it for a year in a market growing at this rate is the arithmetic almost nobody does. We have said that to people and lost the call, and it was still the right advice. Columbia is the county seat, so your deed and tax records are there. We also buy in Columbia and across Hickman County and Lawrence County.
Three ways to sell a house in Maury County
There are three honest routes out of a Maury County house and we are the best of them only in particular circumstances. This is how we would lay it out on the phone.
| Sell to us | List with an agent | Sell it yourself | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Commission | None | 5 to 6 percent, roughly $19,600 at the county median of $355,700 | None, though you are setting the price in a market that has moved 17 percent in five years |
| Repairs | None, including acreage, outbuildings and a well no lender will touch | Whatever an inspection finds, and buyers paying Maury prices expect it done | Yours, and good contractors here are booked out by Nashville work |
| Showings | None at all | In this market, plenty, and most of them serious | Every one is yours to arrange and attend |
| Closing costs | Ours, including the $1,316 Tennessee transfer tax on a median sale | Customarily split | Yours to pay |
| Time to close | 7 to 21 days, whichever date suits you | Short on a house that shows well. Indefinite on one that cannot be shown | However long finding your own buyer takes |
| Can it fall through | There is no mortgage, so there is nothing to collapse | Financing and valuation, which is where a rising market cuts against you | The same, with the paperwork on you |
| What you get | Less than retail. In a county growing this fast, meaningfully less | Almost always the highest figure, if the house can go on the market | Potentially the highest of the three, if nothing goes wrong |
What people say about working with us
Paperwork and costs in Maury County
Tennessee takes a realty transfer tax of $0.37 for every $100 of the sale price. At the Maury County median of $355,700 that comes to about $1,316. We pay the closing costs, that tax included, so it leaves our side of the table rather than yours.
Deeds record with the Maury County Register of Deeds in Columbia, which is the county seat and not the largest thing in the county by a long way. If the house reached you through an estate, probate runs through the Clerk and Master there. A title company will tell you in one call whether you can sell before probate closes, and more often than people expect the answer is yes.
Questions people in Maury County ask us
The market here is rising. Why would I sell to you at all?
Usually you should not, and we say so first. Maury County has grown 17.0% since 2020, faster than any county we work in, with Montgomery next at 13.6%. On a house that can be shown an agent will beat us. We are for the houses that cannot go on the market: fire, water, structural movement, a failed septic field, or a court date that will not wait for spring.
I have inherited a house and the rest of the family will not agree on repairs.
That is the most common Maury County call we take. At $355,700 a repair estimate is large enough that three heirs in three states argue for two selling seasons. We buy as it stands, so there is nothing to agree about except the price and who signs.
It is a farmhouse with land and outbuildings. Is that a problem?
Not for us, and it is often the whole problem for a conventional sale. Acreage, a barn, a well and a septic field are exactly what a standard mortgage will not stretch to, so the buyer pool shrinks to cash and we are in it.
Can you buy before probate finishes?
Frequently, depending on who holds authority to sign. The Clerk and Master in Columbia handles that side and a title company will read the file faster than anybody else. It is worth asking before you assume you have to wait.
What is the catch?
The price. No commission, no fees, no repairs, no cleaning and no closing costs, and in exchange we buy below retail. In a county appreciating at this rate that gap is real money, and if your house can be listed you should list it.
Columbia or Spring Hill, does it matter which?
Not to our offer. It matters a great deal to a listing, because the north of the county is priced by Nashville commuters and the south is not. Anybody pricing your house should say which comparable sales they used and where those houses were.
