For California homeowners and families

Behind on payments, or handling a loved one's estate? Talk with a home buyer who listens first.

New Horizons Fresh Start buys houses as they are. If the house has a notice of default or an auction date, or you inherited it through probate, you can talk with us about selling it. A call does not commit you to anything.

There is no fee to talk with us. Call today, or book a time for tomorrow.

Not ready to talk yet? Your Path Forward asks a few questions about the house, on your own time.


Who we buy from

We buy houses from California homeowners who have fallen behind on their mortgage, and from families settling the house of someone they love. Every situation is different, so we start by listening.

Behind on payments

You have received a notice of default, or you can see one coming. We buy houses as they are, with no repairs, and we will show you how a sale could work for your family.

An auction date is set

A sale date is a lot to carry. We may be able to make an offer to buy your home and take some of this burden off your plate, and the sooner you call, the more room you have to decide.

Inherited a home in probate

We are sorry for your loss. Settling an estate is a lot to carry, and you do not have to decide anything today. When you are ready, we can talk about buying the house as it is.

Your path forward, in three steps

It comes down to three simple steps, and the decision is always yours.

  1. We talk

    Call us or book a call. The first conversation is about you and the house: what happened, what you need, and what matters to your family.

  2. We look closely

    We review the house and your situation, then set a time to call you back with our numbers and walk you through them in plain language.

  3. You decide

    Ask questions, and include your family or your attorney. If you say yes, you receive a written contract that explains your right to cancel, and a licensed title company handles the closing.

What do you do?

We buy houses in California, as they are. If you are thinking about selling, we may be able to make an offer to buy your home and take some of this burden off your plate.

Is there a fee to talk with you?

There is no fee to talk with us. A call is a conversation about you and the house.

Do I need to fix anything or make repairs first?

No. We look at the house as it is today.

I inherited a house that is in probate. Can you buy it?

Yes, we buy houses in probate. We work with the executor or administrator and the estate's attorney, and we go at your family's pace.

My auction date is soon. Is it too late to call?

You can call at any time, and calling sooner gives you more room to decide. We will explain how a purchase would work and how the sale date affects the timing.

Who buys the house?

Depending on your situation, the buyer may be our company or a family who will live in the home. The purchase contract names the buyer, and we will tell you who it is before you sign anything.
