Where We Buy Houses in Northwest Indiana
Preferred Home Buyer has been buying houses across Lake County and Northwest Indiana since 2011, with 1,050+ homes bought and counting, from our office at 8021 Cleveland Pl in Merrillville. We are not a national franchise or an out-of-state call center. We live here, we renovate here, and we know what houses are worth here, block by block.
We buy houses in every condition in these communities and everywhere in between:
- Merrillville, our home base, from Turkey Creek to the Broadway corridor
- Gary, including Miller, Glen Park, and every neighborhood the big buyers skip
- Hammond, from Hessville to the state line
- Crown Point, from the courthouse square to the newest subdivisions
- Schererville, along the Route 30 corridor
- Munster, right up to the Illinois line
- Highland, from Wicker Park to Main Street
- Hobart, from Lake George to the quiet acreage of Ainsworth
- St. John, from the Gates to the original town center
- Dyer, from the state line to the Ideal Section
- East Chicago, from the Harbor to Calumet, houses the big buyers pass over
- Portage, Porter County’s biggest city, from the lakefront to South Haven
- Valparaiso, from the courthouse square to the campus blocks
Outside these towns? Call us anyway. If it is in Northwest Indiana, we buy there.
Whatever the Situation, We Can Help
Most people who call us are not just selling a house. They are solving a problem. These are the four we help with most:
Facing foreclosure. If you are behind on payments, selling for cash before the sheriff’s sale can protect your equity and your credit. We know the Lake County timeline and we have closed ahead of auction dates.
Inherited a house. We buy estate properties at any stage of probate, in any condition, contents and all. Take the keepsakes and leave the rest to us.
House needs work. Bad roof, flooded basement, fire damage, decades of deferred maintenance. We buy houses as-is, so you never fix, clean, or apologize for anything.
Tired of being a landlord. We buy rentals with the tenants in place. The lease, the deposits, and the 2 a.m. phone calls all transfer to us at closing.
Divorce, downsizing, job relocation, taxes piling up: if a fast, certain sale would solve it, call (219) 348-8098 and just ask.
Common Questions From Northwest Indiana Sellers
How fast can you really close?
As little as 3-5 business days* after you accept our offer, through a local title company. If you need more time, you pick the date and it holds. The speed comes from paying cash: there is no lender, no appraisal, and no financing that can fall through.
What does it cost me to sell to you?
Nothing. No commissions, no fees, and we pay typical closing costs. The walkthrough and the cash offer are free, and if the offer does not work for you, you owe us nothing.
Do I need to clean or make repairs first?
No, and please do not spend a dime. We buy houses exactly as they sit: full of belongings, mid-renovation, fire damaged, or just tired. The condition changes the number, never the answer.
How do you decide what to offer?
We start with what comparable homes have actually sold for in your specific neighborhood, then subtract the realistic cost of the work the house needs. We show you that math line by line, so you can check every number yourself.
