Fair Home Cash We make cash offers on houses nationwide, focused on Chicago and Illinois.

Who we are: a Chicago-based company with one job
Fair Home Cash is the trade name of WealthExtract LLC, a Nevada limited liability company, operated from Chicago, Illinois. Fair Home Cash makes cash offers on houses nationwide, focused on Chicago and Illinois, and closes at a licensed title company. It is built for houses with a deadline or a complication: a foreclosure, an inherited property, a divorce, fire damage, a rental that has become a burden. The standard Fair Home Cash holds its own offers to is published as the Seller's Bill of Rights.
When you request an offer through this site, we take down the property details and your timeline and review them. If the property is a fit, you may receive a cash offer from Fair Home Cash, in writing. The buyer named in that written contract is WealthExtract LLC, doing business as Fair Home Cash. If you accept, a licensed title company handles the escrow, the title search, and the closing documents, and pays out your proceeds at closing. You never wire money to Fair Home Cash or to anyone else.
What sellers pay: nothing.
Sellers pay Fair Home Cash nothing: no fees, no commissions, no percentage of your sale, and nothing is paid to Fair Home Cash out of your proceeds. Fair Home Cash is the buyer: when it makes an offer, it is offering to buy the house itself.
No service fee is added at closing, and no commission is taken from the sale. Any payoff the title company handles on your behalf at closing, such as a mortgage balance, back taxes, or a lien, is listed line by line on your settlement statement. Our Terms of Service put the rest in writing: requesting an offer does not obligate you to sell your property or to accept any offer.
Why lead with this? Because in this industry, the money is where the games are: the fee that appears on the last page, the "processing" charge, the cut taken at closing. None of those exist here. We would rather put that on the page in plain language and let you check it against your own settlement statement.
Part 3What we are not — and why that matters to you
We are not real estate brokers or agents.
Fair Home Cash is not a licensed real estate brokerage or agent and does not represent you; it makes offers as the buyer. It does not provide brokerage services, does not negotiate on your behalf, and does not act as your agent or fiduciary.
When we make an offer, we are the buyer.
Fair Home Cash is the buyer: when it makes an offer, it is offering to buy the house itself. The buyer named in the written purchase contract is WealthExtract LLC, doing business as Fair Home Cash. Not every property is a fit, and some will not receive an offer.
We do not put your house on the MLS or market it publicly.
No yard sign, no showings, no listing agreement, no exclusivity. If you request an offer and then decide to list with an agent instead, nothing binds you to us.
We do not give legal, tax, or financial advice.
In Illinois an attorney at closing is standard practice, and that works in your favor: before you sign anything, including a Fair Home Cash purchase contract, have your own attorney read it. Fair Home Cash does not provide legal, tax, or financial advice, and nothing on this site is legal, tax, or financial advice.
We cannot promise you an offer or a specific price.
Fair Home Cash makes offers only on properties that are a fit, and it cannot promise that your property will sell, that you will receive any particular offer or price, or that any specific outcome will result. Anyone who promises you a price before seeing the house is reading from a script.
Here is why that matters to a seller. Because Fair Home Cash is not a brokerage, there is no commission coming out of your proceeds and no listing agreement locking you in, so every exit stays open the whole time. And because Fair Home Cash is the buyer, not your representative, you should check the math yourself. That is exactly why we publish it: how a cash offer gets built, line by line, and a cash offer estimator that gives you a rough range before you talk to anyone, including us.
Part 4The standard to hold every offer to
The math comes attached
A fair number survives being written down. Fair Home Cash puts every offer in writing with the math attached: the fixed-up value with the comparable sales, the repair scope, and every cost subtracted. The general method is published at How Cash Buyers Price Offers, and you can check any buyer against it, including us.
No pressure, no expiring-offer games
Your decision runs on your clock. Take the written offer to your attorney, compare it against an agent's net sheet, get competing offers. A number that changes because you asked questions was never a real number.
You can walk away at any time
Requesting an offer creates no obligation of any kind — it is in our Terms, not just on this page. From the first call to the closing table, the decision stays yours, and walking away costs you nothing.
We say so when we are the wrong tool
A well-priced house in good condition, with time to wait, often nets more listed with an agent even after commissions and closing costs. If that is your house, list it. This service exists for the houses and timelines where that math does not work.
