Frequently Asked Questions
At this point, you probably have a few questions. Most people do! On this page is a collection of our clients’ most frequently asked questions, along with our answers. If you still have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact us (or give us a call). We’ll be happy to answer anything you would like to know!
Q: Will you be listing my house on the MLS or actually buying it?
A: At Boost Capital LLC we’re not real estate agents and we don’t list houses. We are professional home buyers that buy Salem homes and rental properties that meet our purchasing criteria. Once we purchase a house, we will spend the time and money to make any necessary repairs, and resell it to another homeowner for a profit.
Q: Do you pay honest prices for properties?
A: We are looking to get a discount on a property, and often purchase homes below market value so we can resell them at a profit later. However, in our experience, sellers that want to sell a house quickly aren’t necessarily expecting a large “windfall” on the property. Instead, they appreciate that we can offer them cash and close very quickly with no waiting for financing. Add that up with the fact that you won’t have to spend any time or money to fix up your property, and we cover all closing costs, and you can see the value in selling a house directly. Contact us today and let’s see if we can come to an agreed-upon cash offer. Our no-obligation pricing commitment means that we will never hassle or harass you to move forward with the offer we give. The decision is in your hands.

Q: How do you determine a price to offer for my house?
A: Great question! Our process is straightforward. We look at the location of the property, what repairs are needed, the house’s current condition, and the values of comparable houses sold in the area recently. Using this information, we are able to come up with a cash offer that we hope will be a win-win for both parties.
Q: Are there any fees or commissions to work with you?
A: One reason that our Cash Offer Program is so attractive to so many Oregon homeowners is that we charge NO fees or commissions when you sell your house to us (and we’ll often pay for the closing costs, too!). Instead of taking a percentage out of the final sales price, we make our money after we buy your house and do the necessary repairs and upgrades to sell it later for a profit. Once we buy the house, the responsibility is ours. You get to walk away without the burden of an unwanted property with its expensive mortgage and property taxy payments to live the life you deserve.
Q: How are you different from a real estate agent?
A: Traditional real estate agents list homes and hope that someone will buy them, while Boost Capital LLC is ready to buy right now! When you work with a local agent, they will spend weeks and months showing the properties to prospective buyers, and then take a percentage of the sale price after the close. With an agent’s commission often costing you 3 to 6% of the overall sale price of your house, the amount you sell the house for versus the amount you actually walk away with can be a shocking difference.
Agents provide a great service for those homeowners that don’t mind giving up a chunk of their sales price, but if you’d rather keep that money in your pocket we have a solution. Because we’re not agents, we’re home buyers, our company actually buys houses directly from you using our own cash. This means we can make a decision to buy your house within a couple of days (sometimes the same day) of you contacting us.
Q: Is there any obligation when I submit my information?
A: Absolutely not! Our cash offer comes with a zero-obligation guarantee. Tell us a bit about your Salem area house and we’ll take a look at things and set up a call with you to find out more. If your situation qualifies, we will make you an all-cash offer. From there, it’s 100% your decision on whether or not you’d like to sell your house to us, shop our offer around, or go with a different selling option. We will never hassle or harass you. The choice is in your hands.
