Direct purchase
In some transactions, Solus Investments (or an affiliated entity identified in the agreement) is the buyer and completes the purchase at closing.
How It Works
A clear process, documented at every step.
From your first submission to the closing table, here is what to expect — and what we will put in writing along the way.
The Process
Five stages, at a pace that works for you.
- 1
Submit Property Details
Start with the basics: the property address, its general condition, occupancy, and what you hope to accomplish.
- The online form takes a few minutes; you can also reach us through the contact page.
- We never ask for Social Security numbers, bank details, or other sensitive financial identifiers.
- Submitting information does not obligate you to anything.
- 2
Initial Review
Our acquisitions team reviews the submission against comparable properties, local conditions, and our investment criteria.
- If the property is not a fit, we will tell you plainly.
- If it may be a fit, we will contact you using your preferred method to ask follow-up questions.
- 3
Property Discussion & Due Diligence
We discuss the property in more detail and may request a walkthrough, photos, or documents to understand condition, title, and any repairs.
- Due diligence may include an inspection, a title search, and a review of liens, permits, or HOA requirements.
- Findings during due diligence can affect whether — and on what terms — a transaction makes sense.
- 4
Potential Purchase Agreement
If there is a mutually workable opportunity, we present proposed terms in writing. You are free to review them with an attorney or agent, negotiate, or decline.
- The agreement identifies the buyer and states whether the buyer’s contractual interest may be assigned.
- Any disclosures required in your state are provided in the transaction documents.
- Nothing is final until a written agreement is signed by all parties.
- 5
Title & Closing Coordination
Closing is handled by an independent title company or closing attorney, who manages escrow, title work, and the disbursement of funds.
- Timing depends on title work, due diligence, financing (where applicable), and the agreed terms.
- You will receive closing documents in advance for review.
Transaction Structure
Who buys your property — and how we tell you.
Transparency about structure matters. Here is how we approach direct purchases and contract assignments.
Contract assignment
Solus Investments may purchase a property directly or may assign its rights under a purchase agreement to another buyer where the agreement and applicable law allow. When we intend to, or may, assign a contract, we will say so in writing. The purchase agreement will identify the buyer, and any assignment, the identity of the assignee where required, and other disclosures required by the state where the property is located will be reflected in the transaction documents.
Equitable interest
When Solus Investments signs a purchase agreement, it acquires an equitable interest in the property — the contractual right to purchase it under the agreed terms. It does not own the property until closing. Where we market or assign that contractual interest, we do so only as permitted by state law and with any disclosures the law requires.
State-specific requirements
Several states regulate the marketing or assignment of residential purchase contracts, and some require a real estate license, specific written disclosures, seller acknowledgments, or cancellation rights. We tailor our documents to the requirements of the state where the property is located. If you have questions about the rules in your state, we encourage you to consult a local real estate attorney.
Licensing
Solus Investments is not acting as a real estate broker or agent on your behalf. If any principal of the company holds a real estate license in a particular state, that will be disclosed as required by that state’s rules.
