Frequently Asked Questions
Our Company: Who We Are & How Do We OperateSelling Your House For Cash: Common QuestionsUnderstanding Our Process
How do we make money?
We make our money by putting in the work to fix up and improve the properties we buy. Over years of doing this, we've gotten efficient at renovating houses quickly and cost-effectively, then finding the right families to move into them. We regularly team up with other local investors to secure the best pricing across every part of the process. There's no Wall Street institution or hedge fund behind us-we're locally owned and operated.
How long has Blue Shield Home Buyers been in business?
We've been buying houses across Nashville and Middle Tennessee since 2018.
How do we determine our offer price?
We start by looking at recent sales of comparable properties in your area to understand what your home could be worth once it's fully fixed up. From there, we estimate the cost of the necessary repairs, holding costs, and current market conditions and use that to calculate your offer. We also factor in your specific circumstances and work around how quickly you need the house sold.
Do you buy properties with existing tenants, liens, or back taxes?
Yes, all three. Each of these adds a layer of coordination to the closing process, but none of them are dealbreakers. Let us know what you're dealing with up front so we can plan the timeline accordingly.
What types of properties do you buy?
Single-family homes, townhomes, condos, duplexes, and mobile home properties throughout Nashville and Middle Tennessee. If you're unsure whether your property qualifies, the fastest way to find out is a phone call.
Is Blue Shield Home Buyers a real local company, or part of a national franchise?
We're a locally owned, independent house buyer based in the Nashville, TN area.We are not:-Real estate broker disguised as a home buyer.-National Franchise operating under a local-sounding name and website.
What areas do you serve?
We buy houses throughout Nashville and Middle Tennessee, including Clarksville, Murfreesboro, Gallatin, Lebanon, Hendersonville, White House, and surrounding communities. If your property is within roughly 75 miles of Nashville, there's a strong chance we can help.
How is Blue Shield Home Buyers different from a big company like Open Door, national "i Buyer's", and large real estate brokers?
National iBuyer's use algorithms to generate offers and often charge service fees on top of a lower purchase price, with little room for a real conversation about your specific situation. We evaluate every property individually by the local market and make our offer based on the actual condition and situation. You work directly with the same person from your first call through closing. There's no call center, no corporate approvals, and no algorithm deciding your offer.
