I am not asking you to restore the kitchen, tear out the insulation, or wait six months on a claim. If the structure is still a house I can buy, I will look at it. Kitchen fire, furnace fire, vacant-house fire, smoke with no flame — send the address. I buy fire and smoke damaged houses in Connecticut as-is for cash. No realtor. Close with a Connecticut attorney on your date.

Why sellers take a cash offer after a fire
A listing buyer wants a livable house. A cash buyer can take a burned one. You do not host showings through a tarp. You do not wait 45–90 days while a financed buyer’s inspector walks away. You skip the 6% commission on a house you cannot live in.
- Fast close so you can stop paying for a house you cannot occupy
- Instant cash offer instead of waiting on rebuild estimates
- Sell as-is: fire, smoke, water from the trucks, or a red tag
- No realtor commission; I cover most standard closing costs
- You pick the closing date around insurance and the marshal
What I buy
- Kitchen, electrical, or furnace fires
- Smoke damage with little or no flame
- Water and mold after suppression
- Red-tagged or posted properties the town will not let you occupy
- Houses the insurance company is still arguing about
- Vacant or inherited homes that burned while empty
- Partial rebuilds that stalled when the money ran out
Insurance headaches
Keep your claim if you want it. Or walk away from the fight and sell. I do not need the rebuild done, and I do not need a final insurance check in your hand before I make an offer. Tell me what the carrier has already paid, what is still open, and whether the town has posted the house. I price the as-is condition. This is not insurance advice and I am not your public adjuster.
What you do not do after a fire
You do not rebuild first. You do not wait for a final check if you would rather sell. You do not host showings. You do not pay a realtor commission on a house you cannot live in. You tell me the address, what burned, and whether the town posted it. I send a number.
How it works
- Tell me about the property (address, what burned, red-tag or not).
- I send a clear cash offer. No “we will see after the inspection.”
- You pick the closing date. I close with a Connecticut attorney.
- You sell without a realtor and keep more of the number we agreed to.
The four steps again: how it works. No-agent path: selling without a realtor.
Cash vs listing after a fire
A listed fire house still wants photos and a buyer who can finance a rebuild. That path is 45–90 days and a 6% commission if anyone stays in the deal. Cash is a lower sticker on purpose. You sell house as-is. I close with a Connecticut attorney. You pick the date around the carrier and the marshal.
If the house is also vacant or inherited, say so. The four steps do not change. I still need the truth about what burned and whether the town posted it. Instant cash offer. No obligation. We will not bother you after you say no.
Towns
I buy fire damaged homes in Milford, Bridgeport, New Haven, Hartford, Waterbury, and the rest of Connecticut. Older housing stock and vacant houses catch fire. I still buy them.
If the house is empty for other reasons, see vacant house. If you also have a foreclosure clock, see foreclosure. Statewide: sell your house. Land: sell land.
