Selling to us vs. listing with an agent
Listing is often the right call for a move-in-ready home. Selling to us is built for when speed, certainty or condition matter most.
| Founder Properties | Listing with an agent | |
|---|---|---|
| Repairs and cleaning | None. We buy as-is. | Usually needed to sell, plus inspection repair requests |
| Commissions | None | Typically a percentage of the sale price |
| Closing costs | We pay them | Seller usually pays a share |
| Showings and open houses | One walkthrough | Many, on buyers' schedules |
| Time to close | 14 days or less, or your date | Time on market plus a typical 30–45 day closing |
| Financing risk | None. Cash purchase. | Buyer's loan can fall through |
| Sale price | Fair as-is price | Can be higher for updated homes |

A neighbor, not a call center
I'm Brook Davenport. I've called this area home for 10 years, and I started Founder Properties to help revitalize Cabarrus County, one house at a time, and to make selling simple for the people who live here.
My background is in construction and engineering, so when I look at your house I see a real repair scope, not guesswork. That lets me make fair offers on homes other buyers won't touch, and close when I say I will.
When you call, you get me. I'll be the one who walks your house, explains my offer and shakes your hand at closing.

Frequently asked questions
How do you come up with your offer?
We look at what similar homes nearby have sold for after renovation, then subtract the cost of repairs, our holding and selling costs, and a reasonable profit. We'll walk you through those numbers so you can see exactly how we got there.
Are there any fees or commissions?
No. You pay no commissions and no fees to us, and we pay the closing costs. The number we agree on is the number you'll see at closing, less anything you owe (like a mortgage payoff) and any prorated property taxes.
How fast can you close?
We pay cash, so we can typically close in 14 days or less once title is clear. If you need more time, you pick the date.
Do I need to make repairs or clean out the house?
No. We buy houses in any condition. Take what you want and leave the rest.
Would I get more by listing with an agent?
Sometimes, yes, especially if your home is move-in ready and you have time for showings, repairs and a buyer's financing. Selling to us makes the most sense when speed, certainty, privacy or the condition of the house matter more. We're glad to help you compare honestly.
Are you real estate agents?
No. Founder Properties buys houses directly with our own funds. We don't list houses or charge commissions. If you're working with an agent, that's fine; we're happy to work with them and pay their commission.
Is there any obligation if I request an offer?
None. Our offers are free and there's no pressure. If it isn't a fit, no hard feelings.
Do you buy houses with tenants?
Yes. We buy occupied rentals and work with existing leases, so you don't have to wait for a vacancy.
What areas do you buy in?
All of Cabarrus County, including Kannapolis, Concord, Harrisburg, Mount Pleasant and Midland, plus Charlotte and the surrounding greater-Charlotte towns.
