How this site works

Sold As Is Houses publishes free guides for homeowners in North and South Carolina and keeps a seller list. Here is exactly how it works today, and what will change.

What we are, and what we are not

The site is published by Marcus L. Barber through Digital Solomon, a marketing company in Gastonia, NC.

  • We are not a home buyer. We do not make offers, sign purchase contracts or take title.
  • We are not a real estate broker or agent. We do not list, market or negotiate the sale of your house.
  • We are not a law firm, lender or foreclosure-assistance provider, and we are not connected to any government agency or lender.

The seller list today

The form on this site adds you to a seller list. Our cash buyer program for North and South Carolina is not open yet while a real estate attorney reviews how it should work under both states' licensing laws.

Until then, nothing you send us is shared with any buyer. Marcus may contact you about your request if you checked the box allowing it, and you will get a confirmation email.

When the buyer program opens

We will tell you the legal name of each cash buyer before anything is shared, and we will share your request only with the buyers you say yes to.

Any offer will be the buyer's own. Cash offers are not guaranteed and are often below full market value. Some investors assign their purchase contract to another buyer. You can consult a real estate attorney before signing anything, and in North and South Carolina a licensed attorney handles the legal work of a closing.

How we make money

Today the site earns nothing; there are no ads and no paid placements. When the buyer program opens, participating buyers may pay Digital Solomon a fee to take part, on terms an attorney has approved. Sellers never pay us anything, and how we are paid will be stated on this page before the program starts.

How the guides are made

Guides are drafted with AI writing tools from official sources, checked line by line against those sources, and read in full by Marcus before they publish. See the editorial policy.
