Orlando has 319,758 residents in about 131,000 households, and the median household income is $72,336. The median property value is $394,100, up 9.78% from $359,000 a year earlier. Only 39.5% of homes are owner-occupied, which is well under the national 65.2% (Data USA, American Community Survey 2024). That mix means a lot of Orlando houses are owned by investors and landlords as well as families, and plenty of owners are sitting on real equity in a house that needs a new roof, new air conditioning, or a long list of small fixes. This page is for owners who would rather sell the house as it is than spend months getting it ready.

How Is an Orlando Cash Offer Calculated?
The same method on every address, explained before you sign.
We estimate what the house would sell for after repairs, take off the cost of the work, then take off holding costs, closing costs, and a margin for resale risk. The remainder is the offer. Try your own numbers in the cash offer calculator or see how our offers work.
Illustration: two houses at the Orlando median
Orlando's median property value was $394,100 in 2024 (Data USA, American Community Survey 2024). Take a house at that value that needs a roof and a full air conditioning replacement: $394,100 repaired, less $38,000 of work, less $52,000 for margin, holding, and closing, leaves about $304,100. Take a cosmetic-only house at the same value with $12,000 of paint and flooring and $40,000 in costs and margin: that leaves about $342,100. These are worked examples, not quotes. A real offer depends on the house, the street, and the scope of work.
Is Cash Better Than Listing an Orlando House?
Side by side.
A move-in-ready house with months to spare can net more on the open market. At the $394,100 median, a 5 to 6% commission is roughly $19,705 to $23,646 before repairs and closing costs. When the house needs work, the date is fixed, or certainty is worth more than the last few percent, cash often wins. Compare both in the cash offer vs. listing calculator. The deed stamp figure applies Florida's 70 cents per $100 rate (Florida Department of Revenue); cash sale closing costs explains who usually pays it.
What Should Orlando Sellers Know About Orange County?
Probate runs through the Orange County Clerk
Estate filings go to the Orange County Clerk of Courts, Probate Division, at 425 N. Orange Ave., Suite 335, Orlando, FL 32801, phone 407-836-2057 (Orange County Clerk of Courts). Florida allows summary administration when the estate, less exempt property, is $75,000 or less, or when the owner died more than two years ago (Fla. Stat. 735.201). Homestead property follows separate descent rules (Fla. Stat. 732.401). Heirs outside Florida can read selling an inherited house in Florida.
Foreclosure is a court case with a hard cutoff
Florida lenders foreclose through circuit court. The owner can pay off the debt and stop the sale until the later of the clerk filing the certificate of sale or the time set in the judgment, and then redemption ends (Fla. Stat. 45.0315). With equity in the house, a cash sale before that date usually leaves more than the auction. How Florida auctions work.
Orange County property taxes
Real estate taxes become delinquent on April 1, and the advertising and collection costs are added to the bill. If the balance is still unpaid at the annual sale, a tax certificate is sold against the parcel and the owner must pay the Tax Collector the taxes plus interest and costs to clear it (Orange County Tax Collector). A certificate holder can apply for a tax deed once two years have passed (Fla. Stat. 197.502). Any back taxes are paid from the proceeds when the house sells.
Disclosure and flood questions
A Florida seller who knows of a material defect the buyer cannot readily see has a duty to disclose it, under Johnson v. Davis, 480 So. 2d 625 (Fla. 1985). Florida also has a flood disclosure statute for residential sales (Fla. Stat. 689.302). Answer honestly even with a cash buyer. See the Florida as-is disclosure guide.
City of Orlando code enforcement
Report or look up a code case through Orlando Code Enforcement at 407.246.2686 or codeenforcement@orlando.gov (City of Orlando). Unincorporated Orange County has its own code compliance line, 407-836-3111 (Orange County). We buy houses with open violations and price the cure into the offer.

Which Orlando Situations Fit a Cash Sale?
Worn-out roof or air conditioning
These two repairs cost the most and stall the most listings. We price them into the offer and skip the contractor bids.
Landlord ready to exit
Roughly 60% of Orlando homes are renter-occupied. Single-family rentals and small multifamily sell with tenants in place.
Inherited house
Heirs in another state can avoid cleanouts, travel, and showings on a house no one will live in.
Foreclosure notice
A lis pendens or a sale date does not end your options. Florida timelines.
Back taxes or liens
Balances on the parcel are paid from the proceeds at the closing table.
Hurricane or water damage
Houses with roof damage, water lines, or mold are bought as they sit. See the hurricane season post.
Job move
Orlando has 176,855 employed residents, with health care, retail, and hospitality the largest sectors. If you are relocating, tell us your start date and we plan around it.
Divorce
One written offer and one closing date settle a shared house without a listing.
Orlando Seller FAQ
Does Home Pros buy Orlando houses that need major work?
Yes. We buy Orlando houses in the condition they are in: aging roofs, air conditioning that has quit, galvanized or polybutylene plumbing, termite or water damage, open permits, and a garage packed with belongings. You do not repair, clean, or stage anything. The work is priced into one written offer, and we show how the number was built before you sign.
How fast can an Orlando house sale close?
You get a written offer within 24 hours of sending the address. Once you accept, closing can happen in as few as 7 days or on a date you pick. Most Orlando closings fall between 14 and 30 days, and the title company usually sets the pace.
What does it cost to sell to Home Pros in Orange County?
Nothing out of pocket. There is no listing agent and no commission, and we pay our side of closing costs. A mortgage payoff, lien, or tax balance is paid out of the proceeds at closing and the rest goes to you.
Where are Orlando probate cases filed?
With the Orange County Clerk of Courts, Probate Division, at 425 N. Orange Ave., Suite 335, Orlando, FL 32801. The division phone is 407-836-2057. A title company will want proof of the personal representative's authority before an inherited house can close.
My Orlando house is in foreclosure. Can I still sell it?
Yes. Florida mortgage foreclosures go through circuit court, and the owner can cure the debt and stop a sale until the later of the clerk filing the certificate of sale or the time set in the judgment (Fla. Stat. 45.0315). After that the right of redemption is gone. Selling for cash before then pays the lender from proceeds, and any equity left is yours.
What if I am behind on Orange County property taxes?
You can still sell. Real estate taxes become delinquent on April 1, and a tax certificate can be sold against the parcel at the Orange County Tax Collector's annual sale. A certificate holder can apply for a tax deed after two years (Fla. Stat. 197.502). Paying the balance from sale proceeds ends the process.
Will you buy an Orlando rental with a tenant in it?
Yes. You do not need to end the lease or finish an eviction first. The lease stays with the property, and you step out of the middle. With about 60% of Orlando housing units renter-occupied, this is a common request.
What would a cash offer look like at the Orlando median?
Orlando's median property value was $394,100 in 2024. As an illustration only, a house at that value needing about $38,000 of work and $52,000 for margin, holding, and closing would produce an offer near $304,100, while a cosmetic-only house could land near $342,100. The real number depends on your house and your street.
Which Orlando neighborhoods and nearby cities do you buy in?
Pine Hills, Azalea Park, Conway, Mills 50, College Park, Baldwin Park, Lake Nona, Winter Park, Kissimmee, Apopka, Ocoee, Oviedo, and the rest of Orange County. Send any address and we will tell you whether it fits.
Is Home Pros a real buyer or a lead-generation site?
Home Pros is a trade name of Balint Holdings, LLC, a veteran-owned cash buyer headquartered in San Antonio, with a 4.9 star Google rating across 98 reviews and BBB accreditation. Our own acquisitions team works your file, and we do not resell your information.
