Old wiring, a tired roof, a basement full of a lifetime of belongings. You don't have to fix anything before you sell. We buy as-is.
Your timeline, not ours
Our average deal closes in 28 days. If you need more time to pack, find your next place or wait on paperwork, we set the closing date around you.
A local cash buyer for Lewiston and Auburn
Running Brook Home Solutions is a Maine company based in Windham, just down Route 202 from the Twin Cities. We buy houses directly from owners on both sides of the Androscoggin River. In Lewiston that means downtown and the Tree Streets, the Sabattus Street and College Street areas, Lisbon Street and out toward the Lisbon line. In Auburn it means New Auburn, Danville, the Minot Avenue area and the neighborhoods around Lake Auburn. We also buy in Lisbon, Lisbon Falls, Sabattus, Greene, Turner, Minot, Poland and Mechanic Falls.
A lot of the housing here is older: two- and three-family buildings close to downtown, and capes, ranches and farmhouses out in the surrounding towns. Many of these homes have been in the same family for decades. When it’s finally time to sell, they often need the kind of work that makes a traditional sale slow and complicated. That’s where we come in. We’re not real estate agents, and we don’t list your house. We buy it ourselves, as it is.
How it works
Tell us about the property
Call (207) 387-9552, email admin@runningbrookrei.com, or fill out the short form. The address, the condition and your timeline are enough to get started.
We'll make you a guaranteed cash offer within 24 hours
Send us photos or a video of the house and we'll put a no-obligation cash offer in front of you. We walk through it in person only after we have a written agreement. We'll talk through your options. No pressure, and no hard sell.
Close on the day you pick
We close at a local Maine title company. Our average deal closes in 28 days, but you set the date. There are no repairs to make, no agent commissions to pay, and we cover your closing costs.
Situations we often see in Lewiston-Auburn
Inherited a house or going through probate
If a parent's home in Lewiston or Auburn has come to you, you may be sorting out a will, siblings and a house full of belongings all at once. Probate for Androscoggin County is handled at the Probate Court in Auburn. We can work alongside the personal representative and your attorney, and we can set the closing date around the court paperwork.
Behind on payments or worried about foreclosure
Foreclosure in Maine goes through the courts, and the state's Foreclosure Diversion Program offers mediation for homeowners. We'd encourage you to talk with a housing counselor or an attorney. If selling turns out to be the right move, a cash sale can be one way to move forward. Just up the road in Greene, we helped a homeowner who had fallen behind on payments sell before the bank stepped in.
Divorce or separation
Selling a shared home is hard enough without showings and open houses. We helped a Lewiston couple sell quickly and split the proceeds fairly during a difficult time.
Repairs you can't take on
Roof, furnace, foundation, plumbing, an old oil tank in the basement. We buy as-is. On one Lewiston sale, we covered the closing costs and even helped install a new water heater to make the seller's move easier.
Tired of being a landlord
Owning a two- or three-unit building near downtown means tenants, turnover, repairs and long winters. We buy multi-family properties and rentals, even with tenants still living there.
A vacant house or land you don't use
An empty house still costs you taxes, insurance and heat. We've bought vacant homes in Auburn and an unused parcel of land in Sabattus.
Relocating or moving closer to family
If your move date is set, we can work around it. In Mechanic Falls, we planned the closing around the seller's moving timeline.
