Utah cash home buyers
After a fire, the last thing you need is a restoration project. We buy fire-damaged houses for cash, as-is — smoke, water, and structural damage included.
The process
Three simple steps. No pressure, ever.
Address and a few details about your situation. Takes 60 seconds.
A fair, no-obligation cash offer within 24 hours.
Close in as little as 7 days — or on your timeline.
Your situation
Fire damage is rarely just fire damage. There is smoke throughout the house, water from putting the fire out, possible mold after, and a list of repairs that can swallow an insurance check whole. A traditional buyer cannot get a normal loan on a house like that, which leaves most owners stuck between a long rebuild and a market that will not touch the property.
Wise Revival, founded by Alberto Molina and Kyle Sowell, buys fire-damaged houses for cash anywhere in Utah. We evaluate the property as it stands today and make a fair cash offer within 24 hours. No cleanup crews, no contractors, no waiting on a rebuild.
How we handle it
Tell us about the house and what happened — a kitchen fire, an electrical fire, a total loss, or anything in between. We will look at the property in its current condition and give you a real cash number within 24 hours. There is no requirement to board it up, haul out debris, or remove damaged belongings first.
If the offer works, we close in as little as 7 days, or on a later date that fits whatever you are working through — housing, paperwork, family decisions. Your insurance claim is yours to handle with your insurer; selling the property to us is a separate, simple step, and there is never any obligation to accept our offer.
Situations we see every week
One room or one side of the house affected? We buy it without you restoring anything.
Even heavily damaged structures have land and salvage value. We will give you a real number.
The damage after the fire counts too — soaked drywall, smoke odor, mold risk. We buy as-is.
If the payout will not cover the rebuild, selling for cash can be the clean exit.
Handling someone else's fire-damaged property from far away? The whole sale can be done remotely.
A damaged, vacant house draws code attention fast. A quick sale ends the notices and the carrying costs.
Utah information
After a fire, two tracks run at once: the insurance claim (your carrier's proof-of-loss and adjuster process) and the house itself. Utah sellers must not misrepresent the property and remain liable for fraud or nondisclosure of known material defects — in practice, condition is disclosed on the standard Seller's Property Condition Disclosure form used in Utah transactions. A fire is exactly the kind of known, material fact that must be disclosed to any buyer, and a burned house also draws city/county code attention: unsafe-structure notices, board-up and cleanup orders, and permits for any repair work.
You do not have to rebuild before you sell. Plenty of Utah owners take the insurance settlement for their contents and personal claim, disclose the fire fully, and sell the structure as-is to a buyer who will do the restoration. That skips months of contractor bids, permit queues, and mortgage-company escrow fights over insurance checks (your lender is usually a co-payee on rebuilding funds). We buy fire-damaged houses in any condition — the damage just has to be disclosed, and it will be priced honestly.
General information only — not legal advice. The information on this page, including any timeline estimate from our calculator, is general information about Utah law and Utah foreclosure and probate procedures. It is not legal advice, it does not create an attorney-client relationship, and it may not reflect the most recent changes in the law or how the law applies to your specific situation. Deadlines in a real foreclosure or probate case depend on the actual notices, loan documents, and court filings in that case. If you need advice about your own situation, consult a licensed Utah attorney.
The Wise Revival standard
The rules we never break.
Get started
Free, no obligation. We reply within 24 hours.
Good to know
Yes. We buy houses with partial damage, heavy smoke and water damage, and even severe structural fire damage. The offer reflects the condition and the land — ask us for a real number.
No. Leave the house exactly as it is, including damaged contents you do not want. We handle everything after closing.
Your claim is between you and your insurer, and selling the property is a separate decision. We cannot advise on your claim — your insurer or an attorney can — but a sale to us does not require you to finish a rebuild first.
In as little as 7 days, or on a later date if you need time to sort out housing or paperwork. You pick the closing day.
None. No agent commissions, no fees from us, and no renegotiation at closing — the offer we make is the offer we honor.
