We buy houses for cash in Clearwater, Florida. Whether you've inherited a Clearwater property, are managing an estate in probate, are behind on payments, or are simply tired of being a landlord, we make a fair cash offer in 24 hours and close on your schedule. Kirby Family Properties is local Tampa Bay, owner-operated, and we close as the buyer — not as a wholesaler reassigning your contract.
Why Clearwater heirs and owners sell direct
Clearwater has one of the highest concentrations of retirees in the country, which means a lot of the homes we buy here come from estate situations. An adult child inherits a Clearwater condo or single-family home from a parent who lived there for 30 years — full of belongings, maybe with deferred maintenance, often with multiple siblings who live out of state and can't agree on whether to keep it. Traditional listings require cleanouts, photos, repairs, weeks of showings. That's not a fit for an out-of-state heir trying to wrap up an estate. We buy the property as-is — including the contents — so heirs can close, distribute proceeds, and stop paying property taxes and utilities. We also buy plenty of beach-adjacent rentals from landlords ready to cash out, and pre-foreclosure properties where time matters.

Most closings happen in 7 to 21 days. If the title is clean and there's no probate or litigation in the way, we can close in as few as 7 days. Probate sales depend on the court.

Any condition. We buy code-violation properties, hoarder houses, fire-damaged homes, properties with tenants who won't allow showings, and houses that haven't been touched in decades. We don't ask you to clean, repair, or do anything before closing.

No. We close as the buyer with our own capital. No assignments, no last-minute renegotiations.
