What We Do
North Atlanta Home Buyers purchases houses directly from homeowners across metro Atlanta — in Fulton, Cobb, Gwinnett, and Cherokee counties and beyond. We buy in any condition, for cash, and we close on the seller's timeline. No listing, no showings, no open houses, no repairs, no commissions.
Divorce sales are a specialty, not a sideline. The marital home is one of the hardest parts of any divorce: it's usually the largest asset, both spouses have strong feelings about it, and every option — listing, buyout, waiting — requires a level of cooperation that divorce actively undermines. We built our process around that reality. Our job is to give both spouses a single, simple, fair transaction they can agree on, so the house stops being the thing the divorce revolves around.
How We're Different From Listing With an Agent
Real estate agents do valuable work, and for some divorcing couples a traditional listing is the right choice — we'll tell you so if we think it is. But the traditional process was designed for cooperative sellers with time on their hands. Divorce is the opposite of that. Here's what changes when you sell directly to us:
- Speed: a written cash offer in 24 to 48 hours, and closing in as little as 7 days — versus two to four months for a listing plus closing.
- Certainty: no financing contingencies, no appraisal gaps, no inspection objections that restart negotiations. When both spouses accept our offer, the deal is done.
- Simplicity: one walkthrough instead of dozens of showings. No keeping the house show-ready while you're divorcing. No coordinating around two schedules and two attorneys for every counteroffer.
- As-is: we buy the house exactly as it sits. No repairs, no staging, no cleanout. Take what you want and leave the rest.
- No commissions: there are no agent commissions when you sell directly to us, which matters enormously when equity is thin.
- Neutrality: we don't take sides, we don't play spouses against each other, and we don't share one spouse's information with the other without permission.
Our Process, Step by Step
- Reach out. Call (470) 779-2869 or fill out the form below. Either spouse can start the conversation — we'll talk to both of you together or separately, whichever you're comfortable with.
- We see the house. Usually a single walkthrough, in person or by video call. There's nothing to prepare: no cleaning, no staging, no repairs.
- You get a written offer. Typically within 24 to 48 hours. It's a real number on paper — show it to your attorney, your mediator, or your ex-spouse. There's no obligation and no expiration pressure.
- You pick the closing date. As fast as 7 days or several months out. We work around your divorce timeline, your lease dates, and your moving plans — not the other way around.
- We close. A local title company handles everything: paying off the mortgage, and disbursing the remaining proceeds exactly as your settlement agreement or court order instructs. Both spouses sign once, and the financial tie is cut.
What We Believe
A few principles guide how we work with divorcing couples:
- Neutrality is non-negotiable. We work for the transaction, not for either spouse. Both parties get the same information, the same offer, and the same respect.
- Honesty over pressure. If a traditional listing would clearly net you more and you have the time and cooperation to pull it off, we'll say so. We'd rather lose a deal than talk a couple into the wrong one.
- Clarity beats optimism. We'll give you straight answers about what your house is worth to a cash buyer and why — not an inflated number designed to get a signature.
- Your attorneys stay in the loop. We encourage both spouses to run our offer past their lawyers. A clean transaction that everyone's counsel has reviewed closes faster and with less friction.
- Privacy matters. Divorce is personal. We don't share your information, your situation, or your details with anyone who doesn't need them to close the transaction.

Common Questions About Working With Us
Are you a real estate agency?
No. We're direct home buyers — we purchase your house ourselves for cash, rather than listing it for sale on your behalf. That means no commissions, no showings, and no waiting for a retail buyer.
How do you determine your offer price?
We look at the home's condition, recent comparable sales in the neighborhood, and the cost of any needed repairs and updates. Our offer reflects what we can pay while accounting for those costs and our own risk. We'll walk you through the reasoning — no black box.
Do both spouses need to be involved?
For a marital home, yes — both spouses generally must sign to sell. Either spouse can start the conversation with us, and we'll work with both of you from there. Nothing moves forward until you both agree.
What does it cost to get an offer?
Nothing. The conversation and the written offer are completely free, with no obligation. If you accept, there are no commissions — the title company handles the mortgage payoff and disburses proceeds per your agreement.
Can you work with our attorneys or mediator?
Absolutely — we encourage it. We're used to coordinating with divorce attorneys and mediators, providing written offers they can review, and timing closings around settlement dates and court orders.
