The house is empty. The meter is running.
A vacant Maryland house costs money every day it sits. Taxes, insurance, utilities, lawn service, potential vandalism, and the risk of code violations from neighbors reporting the property. We close fast so the holding costs stop.

Four things to know about how a Schiff purchase works in this situation.
What we buy
Vacant single-family houses, condos, and townhomes in any Maryland county we serve. Inherited-and-empty houses, former rentals now sitting, houses left behind after a move, and properties that have been vacant for years.
What you don't have to do
No maintenance from a distance. No coordinating with a lawn service, a snow crew, or a property manager. No worrying about frozen pipes, dropped insurance, or code letters. We take on all of it at closing.
Why speed matters
A house that has been vacant for six months costs roughly the same to hold as it did the first month. But every day increases the risk of a serious problem: burst pipe, break-in, roof issue that wasn't caught in time. Speed protects the sale price.
Timeline
Vacant properties close fastest because there are no tenant notifications and no seller move-out. Seven-day closings are typical when the title is clean.

What does 'as-is' actually mean for a vacant property sale?
As-is means you leave the house exactly as it is. No repairs. No cleaning beyond what you want to do. No fixing violations. The offer we make is based on the property as it sits, and that is the number that arrives at settlement.
Do I pay anything to get an offer?
No. Getting an offer is free. There are no fees to talk to us, review the offer, or walk away. If you accept, we cover the closing costs. If you decline, there is no cost.
What if I have more than one property in this situation?
We buy multiple properties from the same seller regularly. Send us the addresses and we handle them individually or as a portfolio, whichever makes more sense for you.
How is your offer different from a wholesaler's?
A wholesaler goes under contract with you, then tries to find another buyer to assign the contract to for a fee. If they can't find a buyer, the deal falls through. We are the end buyer. We use our own funds. Contract to close is on us, not on a third party we still need to find.
