Cornerstone Homebuyers is expanding its services to help Florida homeowners sell a home as-is

MIAMI, FL – October 18, 2025 – PRESSADVANTAGE –

Cornerstone Homebuyers announced the expansion of its Cornerstone Homebuyers Sell a Home As-Is service across Florida to meet growing market demand as homes spend an average of 79 days on the market, according to Redfin's August 2025 data. The Miami-based company now offers direct cash sales for properties as-is, eliminating repair requirements and eliminating extended listing timelines for homeowners in Florida's five major regions.

The service expansion comes as Florida's housing inventory reached 214,723 homes in August 2025, a 5.5 percent increase from the previous year, putting increased pressure on homeowners who need to sell quickly without investing in costly home repairs. Cornerstone Homebuyers, as a cash home buyer, offers alternatives to traditional selling methods that often require months of prep, preparation and property improvements prior to listing.

“Many Florida homeowners face situations where traditional real estate transactions simply don’t work,” said Ellie Verdura, founder and CEO of Cornerstone Homebuyers. “We buy homes as is, from properties with code violations and fire damage to inherited homes requiring probate and homes with problem tenants or squatters. Our approach allows homeowners to sell their home quickly without the need for repairs or renovations, inspections or extended time on the market.”

The company also handles properties requiring extensive cleaning, including hoarding situations, homes with permitting issues, liens, unsafe structures, demolition orders, hurricane damage complications, and mold issues. The expanded service addresses specific challenges Florida homeowners face where traditional selling methods present obstacles.

Cornerstone Homebuyers typically closes transactions in 7 to 21 days compared to the market average of 79 days, providing peace of mind for homeowners facing foreclosure proceedings, divorce settlements, job relocations or inheritance settlement deadlines. The company typically covers the seller's usual closing costs and purchases properties regardless of condition, allowing sellers to avoid contractor costs and prep investments.

The direct sales model eliminates common transaction obstacles, including buyer financing contingencies, appraisal requirements, and inspection-based renegotiations. Data from Florida Realtors suggests that financing mishaps cause about 8 percent of traditional land and home sales to fall through, creating uncertainty and delays for sellers who have already committed to pushing back deadlines or meeting financial commitments.

Cornerstone Homebuyers, which celebrated its 16th anniversary in May, serves homeowners throughout South Florida, including Miami, Fort Lauderdale, West Palm Beach, Boca Raton and Pompano Beach; Central Florida including Orlando, Tampa, Kissimmee, Lakeland and Clearwater; Southwest Florida including Naples, Fort Myers, Sarasota, Cape Coral and Bradenton; Northern Florida including Jacksonville, St. Augustine, Gainesville, Ocala and Daytona Beach; and the Florida Panhandle including Tallahassee, Pensacola and Panama City.

“Homeowners often tell us they need to 'sell my house fast,' but feel trapped by ownership or personal circumstances,” Verdura continued. “Our service provides a cash offer on homes in situations where other buyers are walking away. Whether it's code enforcement issues, family inheritance complications, or properties damaged by Florida weather events, we structure solutions based on each homeowner's specific time frame and needs.”

The company works with licensed title companies in Florida to handle transaction documentation, municipal lien searches and closing procedures. For properties requiring probate, Cornerstone Homebuyers works with probate attorneys to structure offers that meet legal deadlines and court requirements. The Company may also facilitate cash key delivery arrangements for occupied properties and coordinate with municipalities to resolve violations.

Florida homeowners can receive a cash offer from Cornerstone Homebuyers by calling the company or visiting its website and filling out a short form. The appraisal process to determine a fair cash offer includes assessing property condition, analyzing the local market and calculating renovation costs. Homeowners receive offers within 24 hours and select closing dates based on their schedules, not market-dependent schedules.

The service particularly benefits property owners who typically avoid traditional buyers. Homes with foundation problems, outdated electrical or plumbing systems, roof damage, mold or moisture problems, and extensive deferred maintenance often require six-figure renovation investments before being listed. Properties that are subject to foreclosure proceedings, tax liens or ownership disputes create legal complexities that delay or prevent traditional sales.

“We recognize that living conditions do not always allow time for lengthy renovations or traditional listing processes,” explained Verdura. “Our mission is to give Florida homeowners an alternative way to sell their home when speed, security and simplicity matter most. We take care of the complexity so sellers can move forward with their lives.”

Cornerstone Homebuyers is a Miami-based real estate advisory and real estate investment firm founded in 2009. Founded on the principles of transparency and market expertise, Cornerstone Homebuyers serves homeowners in all five major regions of Florida as a cash home buying company. The company specializes in the direct cash sale of single-family homes regardless of their condition or circumstances, offering alternatives to traditional real estate transactions.
