Q: Will you be listing my house on the MLS or actually buying it?
A: Great question. We’re not agents, and we don’t list houses. Here at Revolve Homebuyer, we are professional home buyers: We buy houses St Louis that meet our purchasing criteria, and we don’t use bank financing so you don’t have to worry about our ability to close on a deal. After purchasing, we may repair the house and resell it to another homeowner or keep it as a rental ourselves.
Q: How are you different from a real estate agent?
A: Unlike real estate agents who list properties and wait for buyers (often 4-6 months in today’s market), we make direct cash offers with no waiting. Real estate agents charge 3-6% commission on your sale price – that’s $3,000 to $6,000 on a $100,000 home. At Revolve Homebuyer, we put people before profits by purchasing your home directly, eliminating commissions completely, and offering a transparent, empathy-driven process tailored to your specific situation and timeline.
Real estate agents offer valuable services for homeowners who can wait several months to sell and don’t mind paying commissions from their proceeds. That’s where Revolve Homebuyer is different. We’re not agents—we’re people-first home buyers who purchase your property directly. Since we work with our own funds and make all-cash offers, we can decide to buy your house within 24-48 hours (sometimes even the same day). We make our living by taking calculated risks: purchasing homes with our cash, handling any necessary repairs, and managing the resale process ourselves. This approach allows us to put people before profits while still offering you a fair, transparent deal.

We asked our customers how working with us changed their lives.
“If you’re a landlord dealing with a tough situation, these guys are the real deal.”
“I had a rental property that turned into a complete nightmare after an eviction. The tenants trashed the place, and I didn’t have the time or energy to deal with it anymore. Revolve Homebuyer Homes came through in a big way. They didn’t care about the mess—they just made me a solid offer and closed fast. The process was seamless, and I got cash without dealing with more stress. If you’re a landlord dealing with a tough situation, these guys are the real deal. They took a huge burden off my shoulders.”
-Tim & Annie
“Selling was emotional for me, but they made it as smooth as possible.”
“After 40 years in my home, it was time to downsize, but the house was old and needed a lot of work. I didn’t want to go through the hassle of fixing it up. A friend told me about Revolve Homebuyer, and I’m so glad I called them. Andrei and Michael were kind, honest, and made the whole process easy. They gave me a fair offer, didn’t care about the repairs, and closed quickly. Selling was emotional for me, but they made it as smooth as possible. If you’re an older homeowner like me, I highly recommend them.”
-Loretta
Q: Do you pay fair prices for properties?
A: The homes we purchase are typically below market value, which allows us to revitalize them before selling to another homeowner. At Revolve Homebuyer, we seek a reasonable discount while still offering value through our people-first approach. Most sellers we work with aren’t necessarily expecting maximum profit—they value our ability to offer cash, close quickly without financing delays, and eliminate the need for repairs, staging, or agent commissions. Our founders, Mike and Andrei, built this business on transparency and integrity, which is why we provide detailed valuations that often exceed traditional cash offers when we spot hidden potential others miss. If a streamlined, hassle-free sale aligns with your needs, let’s explore a win-win solution together. Remember, our no-obligation pricing commitment means you’re free to decline our offer—but many sellers appreciate knowing their options!

Q: How do you determine the price to offer on my house?
A: Great question, and transparency is one of our core values at Revolve Homebuyer. Our people-first approach ensures a fair evaluation process. We carefully analyze your property’s location, assess needed repairs, evaluate the current condition, and research the value of comparable homes recently sold in your neighborhood. By combining these factors with our local market expertise, we create a fair cash offer that respects your home’s true worth while allowing us to revitalize the property—putting people before profits every step of the way.
Q: Are there any fees or commissions to work with you?
A: This is what makes our people-first approach different from traditional home selling: there are NO fees or commissions when you sell your house directly to us, unlike listing with agents where up to 6% comes out of your pocket. We’ll present a transparent offer and, if it works for you, we’ll purchase your home without hassles or hidden charges. We typically cover closing costs too! Our business model works because we invest in renovations and then resell the property. We shoulder all the risks after purchase – whether we profit or not is our concern, not yours. Once we buy the house, you simply walk away with cash in hand, free from property burdens and mortgage payments.
Q: Is there any obligation when I submit my information?
A: There is absolutely zero obligation for you. After you share details about your property, we’ll review everything and typically arrange a conversation to understand your situation better—putting people before profits is our priority. Then we’ll present you with a fair, all-cash offer that respects both your needs and the property’s value. The decision is completely yours—we believe in giving you options, not pressure. You decide what works best for your unique circumstances.
