Where we buy in Lakewood

Lakewood didn't incorporate until 1969, so a lot of its housing was built under county rules before the city existed. That shows up as additions, conversions and garage work that was permitted differently — or not at all — and it's one of the main reasons Lakewood houses fall out of financed contracts.

Belmar and the 80226 core

Close-in, older, and dense with 1950s ranches. One of the most consistent pockets of original housing in the city.

80232 and the south-central neighborhoods

Post-war ranches on decent lots. This is where the house below is.

Green Mountain and 80227 / 80228

1960s–70s development up the hill. Now at the age where systems fail together.

Eiber, Two Creeks, Morse Park and the Colfax corridor

Older, mixed, and full of houses that have been modified over seventy years.

Jefferson County · 80214, 80215, 80226, 80227, 80228, 80232 and 80235

What Lakewood houses usually need

None of these have to be fixed before you sell to us. They're listed because they're the reasons a house here falls out of a financed contract — and why people end up calling a cash buyer.

  • Additions and garage conversions done before the city incorporated, with no permit history to show an appraiser
  • Original sewer lines in the pre-1960 sections
  • Furnaces and panels aging out together in the Green Mountain tract housing
  • Swamp coolers with no central air alternative
  • Original kitchens and baths in houses otherwise sound

A cash offer is lower than a retail list price — anyone telling you otherwise isn't being straight with you. The question worth asking is what you actually keep after commission, repairs, concessions and a few more months of payments. We'll run both numbers on your house, and if listing it wins we'll say so.

A house full of a lifetime of belongings

We bought exactly this in 80232. The photos are below.

An unpermitted addition

It will stop a financed buyer. It doesn't stop us.

An inherited property

No cleanout, no repairs, and we can wait on probate.

A tired rental

Sell it occupied if that's easier.

Lakewood questions we hear

Do you really buy houses in that condition?
Yes — there are photos on this page of a Lakewood house we bought with the floor not visible in most rooms. Nothing was cleaned out before we bought it.
My addition was never permitted. Can you still buy it?
Yes. Unpermitted work is one of the most common reasons Lakewood houses can't close with a lender, and it's not an obstacle for a cash purchase.
Do I have to clean the house out?
No. Take what you want and leave the rest.
Which parts of Lakewood do you buy in?
All of it — 80214, 80215, 80226, 80227, 80228, 80232 and 80235 — Belmar through Green Mountain.
What does it cost to sell to you?
Nothing. No commission, no fees, and no repair credits taken out of your number.
