We buy houses in Missouri
We buy houses in Missouri for cash, in any condition, anywhere in the state. No agent commissions, no repairs before you sell, and no showings. Market figures below are current as of July 2026.
The typical home in Missouri is worth around $268,000, below the national typical value of $372,000, and is up about 3.3% over the past year. That figure covers the whole market, so a house needing significant work sits well below it and a renovated one sits above.

What this means if you are selling
Houses here take about 37 days on average to go under contract, roughly in line with the national figure of 51 days. Bear in mind that clock starts when a buyer appears, and only ends at contract, not at closing. Add the 30 to 60 days a mortgage-backed buyer then needs to actually fund, and a conventional sale in Missouri realistically runs a few months from listing to money in your account.
About 25.2% of listings in Missouri have cut their asking price, close to the national share of 25.6%. That is a fairly normal amount of repricing and suggests neither side has a decisive advantage right now.
At roughly $268,000, Missouri is an affordable market by national standards. The thing sellers here underestimate is that repair costs do not fall with local prices: a roof costs roughly the same whether the house is worth $268,000 or twice that. That is why a house needing $35,000 of work is a far bigger obstacle in a market at this price level, and why conventional buyers using government-backed loans, who face the strictest property condition requirements, are such a large share of the buyer pool here. Values are also up about 3.3% year over year, so if you are not in a hurry, waiting is a real option worth weighing against the cost of holding.
How to think about it here
Missouri sits close to the national average on both speed and repricing, which means neither route is obviously right. It comes down to your house and your situation. If it is in good condition and you can wait a few months, listing will usually net more. If it needs real work, is occupied, or you are working to a date you cannot move, the certainty is worth more than the difference.

Common reasons people sell to us in Missouri
Facing foreclosure
There is usually more time and more equity left than lenders make it feel like.
Inherited a property
Often shared between siblings, full of belongings, and costing money every month.
House needs major repairs
Roof, foundation, mold, or a renovation somebody started and never finished.
Tired of being a landlord
Tenants in place, mid-lease, or one who has stopped paying entirely.
Divorce or separation
One clear number and a firm date, so both parties can move on.
Vacant or unwanted house
Empty houses deteriorate faster and cost more to insure than people expect.
Relocating for work
A start date that will not move and a house that has not sold yet.
Behind on mortgage payments
Missed payments are not the same as losing the house or the equity.
Back taxes or liens
Liens get paid from the proceeds at closing. They do not block a sale.
Selling a house in Missouri
- Do you buy houses anywhere in Missouri?
- Yes, across the whole state, not only the largest metros. If your town is small or rural, send us the address anyway and we will tell you plainly whether we can make an offer on it.
- How fast can you close on a house in Missouri?
- Usually about one to three weeks once title is clear. Closing procedure varies by state, and some use attorneys where others use title companies, which can shift the timeline by a few days. If you need a later date instead, that is equally fine.
- What does the typical house in Missouri sell for?
- The typical home in Missouri is worth around $268,420 as of July 2026, according to Zillow Research. That is a market-wide figure covering every condition, so it is a starting point for context rather than an estimate of your house.
- Do I pay any commission or closing costs?
- No commission, because we are the buyer rather than an agent. We also cover the standard closing costs. Property taxes are prorated to the closing date as normal, and any liens or loan payoffs come out of the proceeds.
