Why Families Choose Lightner Enterprises
When a parent or spouse needs nursing home or assisted living care, the house often becomes the hardest decision on the table. Listing with an agent can mean repairs, showings, and 60 to 90 days or more before closing. We offer families in Hampton, Newport News, Yorktown, and Williamsburg a direct, as-is sale with clear terms and a closing date that fits their situation.

A Straight Answer About Cash Offers
A cash offer from a home buyer is usually lower than what a fully repaired house might bring on the open market with an agent. In exchange, you skip repairs, commissions, showings, and months of waiting. We explain how we arrived at our number, and we encourage you to compare it with a listing price and to talk with an elder-law attorney or financial advisor before you decide.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to make repairs before selling?
No. We buy houses as-is, with no repairs and no cleanup.
How fast can you close?
Some sales close in as little as 7 to 10 days once title and documents are ready. We will give you a realistic date based on your situation.
Are there fees or commissions?
No. You deal directly with us, and there are no agent commissions.
Can I sell if I’m handling this for a parent?
We can speak with a family member or someone holding power of attorney. The actual sale must be approved and signed by a person with legal authority to do so.
Will selling my house affect Medicaid eligibility?
It can. Medicaid has specific rules about home ownership, transfers, and sale proceeds, so speak with an elder-law attorney before you sign anything.
Is a cash offer lower than listing with an agent?
Usually, yes. A cash offer is typically lower than what a fully repaired house might bring on the open market. In exchange, you skip repairs, commissions, showings, and months of waiting. We explain how we arrived at our number, and you are welcome to compare it with a listing.
Does a purchase offer count as proof of funds for a nursing home?
Not by itself. Facilities set their own requirements, so ask the admissions office what it accepts. See our guide to proof of funds for nursing homes.
