A true story from Behind The Perfect Cash Offer.
In 2019, I found a vacant home in Salt Lake City that was days away from foreclosure.
The neighbors told me the owner, Ezekiel, had moved back to Mexico. From his perspective, the house was gone — already lost.
But when I looked deeper, I realized there was still equity in the property — enough for him to walk away with something meaningful if we could just connect in time.
After tracking down a relative in Utah, I finally got Ezekiel on the phone. He was skeptical. (Who wouldn’t be?)
I told him I wanted to help him avoid foreclosure — that I was a legitimate buyer ready to close fast and help him get paid for the equity he’d built.
He said: “If you’re serious, meet me in El Paso.”
So I did.
I flew down to El Paso, Texas, told him to meet me at the bank at 9:00 a.m., and waited.
At 9:15, a taxi pulled up. Ezekiel had crossed the border that morning. We met, signed the papers, and I handed him a $100,000 check.
He avoided foreclosure. I bought a great home. And we both walked away with peace of mind.
💡 The Lesson
Deals like this remind me why we built The Perfect Cash Offer™.
Too often, buyers make promises they can’t keep — “as-is,” “no walkthroughs,” “close in 10 days” — and then flip the deal or renegotiate once they’ve locked the seller in.
That’s not transparency. It’s manipulation.
We do it differently. We do the work up front — verifying funds, removing contingencies within 48 hours, and standing behind our word.
That’s what The Perfect Cash Offer™stands for:
✅ Real buyers. ✅ Real terms. ✅ Real results.
🏁 The Standard We’re Building
