We Buy Hoarder Houses As-Is Across Canada
No cleanup, no judgment, no repairs. Just a fair cash offer and complete discretion.
You don't need to clean, explain, or apologize. We buy it as it is.
Selling a hoarder house through traditional channels is nearly impossible. Agents won't list it without a major cleanup. Buyers walk in, see the condition, and walk right out. The cost of professional cleanup and repairs before listing can run into tens of thousands of dollars — money most homeowners in this situation don't have or don't want to spend.
Maybe it's your own home and the situation got ahead of you. Maybe you inherited it from a family member. Maybe you're helping an aging parent who needs to move to assisted living. Whatever the circumstances, the house needs to be sold, and the traditional path isn't going to work.
I Buy Ugly Houses exists for exactly this situation. We walk through the property, assess its value beneath the contents, and make a fair cash offer. No cleanup required before, during, or after our visit. We handle everything after closing.
Selling fast removes the burden and lets everyone move forward.
Hoarder houses don't just sit unsold — they deteriorate. Hidden moisture, pest infestations, structural damage from overloaded floors, and neglected maintenance compound over time. The longer the property sits, the more value it loses and the more expensive the eventual cleanup becomes.
A fast cash sale stops the clock. It converts an overwhelming, depreciating problem into cash in your pocket. For families dealing with an aging parent's home, it means the transition to a care facility isn't held up by a house that can't be listed. For estates, it means one less complication in an already difficult process.

Common questions about selling a hoarder house
Do I need to clean the house before selling?
No. We buy hoarder houses exactly as they are. You do not need to clean, organize, remove items, or hire any services before we make our offer. We assess the property in its current state and factor everything into our pricing. After closing, we handle all cleanup and disposal.
Is there any judgment about the condition of the house?
Absolutely not. Hoarding is a recognized condition, and the state of a property says nothing about the person selling it. We have bought hundreds of homes in extreme conditions — we treat every seller with the same respect and professionalism regardless of what the house looks like inside. Our team has seen it all, and nothing surprises us.
Can you buy a house with extreme clutter or structural issues underneath?
Yes. Whether the home has floor-to-ceiling contents, blocked rooms, pest issues, or structural concerns hidden beneath years of accumulation, we buy it. We do our own assessment and take on all the risk. You do not need to know or disclose the exact condition of every part of the house.
What happens to the contents after you buy the house?
After closing, we take full responsibility for the contents. Our crew sorts through everything — items of value are donated or recycled where possible, and the rest is disposed of responsibly. If there are specific items you want to keep, you are welcome to remove them before closing, but there is zero obligation to do so.
How is the offer calculated for a hoarder house?
We base our offer on the property's value after renovation and cleanup, minus the estimated costs of that work. Because we handle all cleanup and repairs ourselves with our own crews, our costs are lower than what a typical buyer would face — which means our offers are often higher than homeowners expect. We provide a full breakdown so there are no surprises.
