Georgia Property Owners
Have a Distressed Property in Georgia? You May Not Need to Repair It Before Selling.
When a property needs major repairs, has been vacant, suffered damage, or simply costs more time and money than you want to put into it, a traditional renovation may not be the only path forward. Corvus Legion Capital can review the property in its current condition and determine whether a direct cash and as-is purchase option may be available.
Straightforward review. As-is property options. No pressure to move forward.
The Full Picture
When the Property Itself Has Become the Problem
Corvus Legion Capital looks at the property as it stands today rather than expecting the owner to renovate or prepare it for a traditional retail sale before contacting us.
If the property needs more work than you want to take on, you do not need to solve every condition issue before reaching out. Corvus can review the property and determine whether a direct cash and as-is purchase option may be available.

Do You Have to Fix a Distressed House Before Selling in Georgia?
A property does not necessarily have to be fully renovated before an owner explores a sale. Corvus can evaluate properties in their current condition.
If Corvus agrees to purchase a property as-is, the seller would not be expected to renovate the property for Corvus before closing.
Every property is evaluated individually. Condition affects the evaluation, and major repairs, structural and system problems, vacant properties, and damaged properties can all be considered. As-is does not mean every property automatically qualifies.
What If the Property Is Vacant?
Vacant properties can create their own challenges — ongoing taxes, insurance, utilities, maintenance, security concerns, deterioration, weather exposure, and difficulty managing the property from another city or state.
Corvus considers vacant properties and can review the property based on its condition, access, title, location, and other circumstances.
What If the House Needs Major Repairs?
Corvus may consider properties requiring substantial work, including roof replacement, structural repair, electrical work, plumbing work, water damage, fire damage, interior deterioration, long-term deferred maintenance, major cleanup, and property systems needing replacement.
You do not need to obtain a full renovation plan before contacting Corvus. Tell us what you know about the property condition and we can review whether it may fit our acquisition criteria.
What If Repairs Are Not the Only Issue?
Distressed properties sometimes involve several problems at the same time — major repairs plus code violations, vacancy plus delinquent property taxes, inherited property plus deferred maintenance, mortgage issues plus major repairs, liens plus property deterioration, tenants plus repairs, or foreclosure plus property-condition issues.
You do not need to determine which problem has to be solved first before contacting Corvus. Tell us what is happening with the property and we can review the situation as a whole.
