How to Sell Your Rhode Island Home Without Making Repairs: 5 Simple Steps

If you're thinking about selling your house in Rhode Island but don't have the time, money, or energy to fix it up, you're not alone. Many homeowners face the same challenge — especially if the property is older, inherited, or needs major repairs.


The good news? You don’t have to pour thousands into renovations just to list your home. With the right approach, you can sell your house as-is and still walk away with a fair deal.


Here are 5 steps to sell your Rhode Island home without making repairs — and how RPS Property Solutions can help make it fast, easy, and stress-free.

Step 1: Understand What "As-Is" Really Means

Selling a home as-is means you're offering the property in its current condition — no repairs, no updates, no cleaning required. What the buyer sees is what they get.


In Rhode Island, this type of sale is totally legal and common, especially for:



  • Older homes with outdated systems
  • Inherited properties
  • Homes with water, fire, or structural damage
  • Landlords tired of costly maintenance


However, you still have a responsibility to disclose known issues (as required by RI law). Selling as-is doesn’t mean you can hide serious defects — but it does mean you’re not obligated to fix them.

Step 2: Skip the Agent (and Save on Fees)

Listing a home traditionally often requires:


  • Prepping the home for photos
  • Staging and showings
  • Inspections and buyer repair requests
  • Paying 6% or more in real estate commissions


If your goal is to sell fast without sinking more money into the house, working with a cash home buyer in Rhode Island is a better alternative.

At RPS Property Solutions, we buy houses in any condition — no agents, no fees, and no back-and-forth over repairs.

Step 3: Get a Fair Cash Offer From a Local Buyer

Once you’ve decided to sell as-is, it’s time to find a reputable local buyer. Working with a Rhode Island-based company like RPS Property Solutions means you’re dealing with real people who know the local market and can close quickly.


We make the process simple:


  1. You reach out or fill out our short form
  2. We schedule a quick walk-through or virtual tour
  3. You get a no-obligation cash offer within 24 hours
  4. You choose your closing date


And unlike traditional buyers, we don’t ask for repairs, concessions, or credits. What we offer is what you walk away with — simple.

Step 4: Choose a Closing Date That Works for You

One of the biggest perks of selling as-is for cash is flexibility. Whether you need to:


  • Close in 7 days
  • Stay a little longer while you move
  • Avoid double mortgage payments during a job relocation


You’re in control of the timeline. We work around your schedule, not the other way around.

Step 5: Walk Away With Cash, No Repairs Needed

Once the deal is accepted, we handle everything:


  • Title work
  • Closing costs
  • Paperwork coordination
  • Any leftover items in the home


All you do is sign and get paid — no repairs, no cleaning, no fees.


If you've been wondering, “Can I really sell my Rhode Island house without fixing it up?” — the answer is yes, and we’re here to help you make it happen.
