WE BUY HOMES AS-IS

Merit Homes is a trusted and active builder in Kirkland with a strong understanding of the Highest and Best use for any property. We apply up-to-date information on zoning codes, costs, and City requirements to determine the maximum price we can offer.  In addition, consideration our new home sale prices are consistently amongst the highest on the Eastside, ensuring you get a fair and competitive offer.

When selling directly to Merit Homes, the Seller is not required to pay any commissions, a potential savings of up to 6% of the sale price. On that Eastside, than can be upwards of $60K back in your pocket.

With over 5 decades of experience transacting acquisitions and home sales ourselves, we can clearly walk you through the process and purchase agreement. While we do invite you to review the purchase agreement with a trusted broker or attorney, hiring an agent is entirely up to you. 

Nope! Merit Homes purchases the property as-is, meaning you can skip the hassle of prepping your home like you would for a traditional listing. No staging or photography costs, no strangers walking through your home for showings, and no project managing a renovation!

As a local builder, we are not only looking at what can be built on your property (as in, legally permissible + financially feasible), but we take great care to determine the type of development that best serves future homeowners. Given our experience as a local builder on the Eastside, we thoroughly examine zoning codes and City requirements to envision the best site plan. This could involve single-family residences (SFRs), our popular Urban Series featuring cottages and Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs), or a thoughtful mix of both. By identifying this optimal use, we can confidently provide an offer we stand behind.

At Merit Homes, we understand your concern about receiving a fair and dependable offer. As a trusted and active local builder on the Eastside, our offers are rooted in a thorough and transparent analysis of your property's Highest and Best Use. We meticulously apply up-to-date information regarding Eastside zoning codes, current development costs, and City requirements to determine the maximum price we can offer. Our deep understanding of the local markets ensure our offers are both competitive and firmly grounded in market reality. You can trust that our offers are not speculative "highball" figures designed to attract you only to back out later. We pride ourselves on our integrity and our commitment to transparent transactions.
