Torrance's housing skews older: 82% of homes predate 1980, and 45% of households rent. Older houses often need work a listing would expect you to fix first; we buy them as-is, with no repairs or cleaning. With so many rentals, investors often sell to us with tenants in place, and we pay the closing costs.
When a house in Torrance sells, the title company records the new deed with Los Angeles County Registrar-Recorder/County Clerk and pays off any liens or back taxes from the proceeds.
