How It Works

How We Buy Your Odenton House in 3 Steps

An Odenton cash sale moves in three steps, a call, one visit and a settlement timed to your report date, and owners who have already left sign from wherever they are.

01

Send the Address and Your Report Date

Text, call or use the form with the address, the date you have to be gone and whether a tenant lives there. A callback comes within 24 hours, usually the same day.

02

One Visit, in Person or Through a Contact

Ben or Sam walks the house once, with you, a tenant or a neighbor you trust letting him in. The written cash offer follows within 24 to 48 hours.

03

Settle Before or After You Leave

A Maryland title company records the deed with the Clerk of the Circuit Court for Anne Arundel County and wires the proceeds to your account. Documents are signed in person or remotely, and 14 days is the quickest settlement so far.

Odenton owners on orders often hand the keys to a friend for the one visit, and no second trip is needed before settlement, so a move out of state goes ahead on schedule.

Homes We Buy

Odenton Homes We Buy on Any Timeline

Any Odenton house with a fair resale value after repairs receives a cash offer, and five situations bring in most of the calls from the town.

  • Homes being sold on permanent change of station orders
  • Houses let out after a previous posting, tenant in place
  • Newer builds with association charges and covenants
  • Houses needing work the owner cannot do before moving
  • Sales where the owner has already left Maryland

Townhomes in Piney Orchard and Seven Oaks and older singles near the MARC station receive offers on the same terms. When a well kept Odenton house would clearly sell for more through an agent before your report date, Ben and Sam say so plainly.

Local Hurdles

What Makes an Odenton House Harder to Sell

Five conditions tied to the base and the age of the housing make an Odenton listing slow, and a cash purchase removes each one from the timeline.

  1. Report dates that do not wait. Military and contractor moves happen on fixed dates, and a listing still open when the owner reports elsewhere turns into a long distance sale with a mortgage still being paid.
  2. Rentals carrying deferred maintenance. Only 62.8 percent of homes in the Odenton Census area are owner occupied, according to the 2020 to 2024 American Community Survey, so many houses for sale were let for years and come with worn finishes and a tenant in place.
  3. Lead rules on pre 1978 rentals. An Odenton rental built before 1978 stays on the Maryland Department of the Environment lead registry, and each new tenant requires a fresh Lead Paint Risk Reduction Certificate, a step many owners on orders miss while away.
  4. Association charges on newer builds. Townhome and subdivision communities carry dues, covenants and resale disclosures that follow the house into the sale, and an unpaid balance or open notice holds up a retail closing.
  5. Owners who cannot be there. An owner already at the next duty station cannot supervise repairs, meet inspectors or open the door for showings, which keeps a conventional listing on the market for months.
Settlement Costs

Who Pays What at an Odenton Cash Settlement

Revolutionary Home Buyers pays the county and state transfer taxes, the recordation tax and the title company charges on an Odenton sale, and the seller covers only what is owed against the house, such as the mortgage, back taxes, utilities and liens, from the proceeds.

On a 300,000 dollar Odenton sale the county transfer tax, the state transfer tax and the recordation tax add up to 6,600 dollars, a large sum for an owner who bought with a small down payment a few years ago, and every dollar of it sits on our side of the settlement statement.

Transparent Offers

How We Calculate a Cash Offer in Odenton

An Odenton cash offer is the value of the house after renovation, less resale costs, the renovation, closing and holding costs and a margin, all set out in writing.

Resale Value minus Sale Costs minus Renovation minus Closing and Holding minus Margin equals Your Cash Offer

Resale costs sit near 6 percent of the finished value. Closing and holding costs run to roughly a quarter of the purchase price plus renovation, covering the purchase settlement, insurance, utilities and association dues until the house sells again.

In Odenton, five factors shift the figure more than any others.

  • Condition after years as a rental, because worn floors, paint and appliances are replaced before resale.
  • Tenant and lease terms, because a lease running past settlement delays the renovation start.
  • Lead registration status, because a pre 1978 rental without a current certificate adds lead work.
  • Community and house type, because a Piney Orchard townhome and an older single near the station resell at different values.
  • Association balance and liens, because unpaid dues, taxes and judgments are cleared from the price at settlement.

Owner occupied homes in the Odenton Census area carry a median value of 435,300 dollars in the 2020 to 2024 American Community Survey, a figure that describes houses ready for a financed buyer rather than a rental between tenants.

Side by Side

Cash Sale Compared With Listing an Odenton House

An Odenton listing and a cash sale differ on eight costs and steps, and the gap widens when the owner is already gone or a tenant still lives there.

A freshly updated Odenton house, empty and well before the report date, often brings more through an agent, while a tenanted rental or a house the owner cannot visit usually nets more as a cash sale.

Other Situations

Selling an Odenton House in Harder Situations

Six Odenton situations come up more than any others, and each one runs through the same three steps.

Selling on PCS Orders

A permanent change of station does not move because a sale has not closed. Settlement is fixed to the date you give, and the paperwork follows you if you have already reported.

Selling an Odenton Rental With Tenants

A tenant on a lease stays in place, and the lease and deposit pass to the new owner at settlement. The rules to sell a house with tenants in Maryland apply to Odenton unchanged.

Selling After a Civilian Job Transfer

Contractor and agency staff transferred away from the base sell on the same schedule as service members. The steps to sell a house for a job relocation in Maryland cover the timing in detail.

Selling an Inherited Odenton House

The personal representative named by the Register of Wills for Anne Arundel County signs for the estate, and heirs stationed or living elsewhere sign their part remotely.

Selling Closer to the Gates

Owners whose house sits next to the installation, in ZIP code 20755, can sell my house fast in Fort Meade through the same process.

Selling East Toward Route 3

Owners in the colonials and townhomes east of Odenton can sell my house fast in Crofton on identical terms.

Fantastic experience working with Ben. From initial conversation, to quickly scheduled showing, contract, and closing, all was done and dusted in 3 weeks. It was almost too easy. Thanks to Ben for his consistent and transparent communications. I would use and recommend Revolutionary Home Buyers again.

I met Ben after putting a 4sale sign in my row house window. He said they had just purchased the unit down the block. He made a respectable offer and purchased my unit quickly. To my surprise they also purchased 2 more of my units in Anne Arundel Co. Very respectable offers. Clear Title handled all 3 transactions with precise professionalism. Smooth. I'm smiling right now. Wow! 😀👍🏾

Ben is a true stand-up guy. We hit a small bump in the road to completing our transaction, but Ben assured me in person, that he would get it straightened out, and, that we would close on time - and we did!

Absolutely wonderful group to work with! Sold one of our properties in a matter of weeks where we thought it would take months. They worked extremely hard in helping us achieve our goals in a pretty tough market. Very grateful to the team for getting it done so quickly and efficiently.

Very smooth transaction with the sale of 2 properties to Revolutionary Home Buyers. They made the process easy and overdelivered when we ran into issues with Baltimore City. I will be doing more business with them in the future.

Straight Answers

Odenton Sellers Ask These Questions First

Owners near Fort Meade, many of them on orders, ask these questions before they request an offer.

How quickly can I sell my house in Odenton?

An Odenton house can settle in 14 days, and most sales close in 30 days or less. A later date tied to a report date or a lease end is fixed the same way.

Do I have to make repairs before selling?

No. Worn carpet, a tired kitchen and the wear left by tenants stay as they are, and the work starts after settlement.

What parts of Odenton do you buy in?

Revolutionary Home Buyers buys in ZIP codes 21113 and 21054 across Odenton, from Piney Orchard to Seven Oaks and the older streets by the station, and in the rest of Anne Arundel County.

Can you buy an inherited or probate property?

Yes, once the Register of Wills for Anne Arundel County appoints a personal representative, who signs for the estate on behalf of the heirs.

Do you buy from owners with PCS orders?

Yes, and this is one of the most common reasons Odenton owners call. You set the settlement date and the closing takes place remotely if you have already moved.

Can you buy an Odenton house that is rented out?

Yes. The tenant stays, and the lease and the security deposit pass to Revolutionary Home Buyers at settlement.

Can I sell from another state or overseas?

Yes. Remote closings are routine, with documents signed electronically or before a notary and handled through the title company.

Does a sale on orders change the capital gains rules?

It can help. IRS Publication 523 lets service members on qualified official extended duty, at a duty station at least 50 miles from the home or in government quarters, suspend the 5 year test for up to 10 years, so a tax adviser checks whether your gain qualifies.

What happens after I accept the cash offer?

A Maryland title company receives the contract, searches the title, orders the payoffs and books settlement for the date your orders allow.

What if I am facing foreclosure?

You keep the right to sell up to the foreclosure sale, and a settlement first pays the loan off in full. Counselors at the Maryland HOPE Hotline, 1-877-462-7555, go over the alternatives at no charge.

Are there commissions or closing costs?

No commission applies and the offer is free. Revolutionary Home Buyers pays the transfer and recordation taxes and the title fees, and your proceeds cover only the mortgage, liens and any unpaid taxes.
