Sell Your Morgantown, WV House Fast — Local Cash Buyer You Can Actually Trust
Hi, I’m Jeff Merrifield — owner of 304 House Buyers and a lifelong North Central West Virginia guy. Whether your house sits up the hill in Suncrest, out near Cheat Lake, off University Avenue near the WVU campus, in Sabraton, Star City, Westover, South Park, Greenmont, Wiles Hill, or further out toward Cassville and Granville — we’ll come straight to you, walk the property, and give you a fair, no-pressure cash offer.
We’re not a 1-800 number from out of state. We’re a small, family-run, veteran-owned operation based at 304 1/2 Merchant Street in Fairmont, less than 25 minutes south of downtown Morgantown. We’ve earned a perfect 5.0-star rating across 17 Google reviews from neighbors who needed a real solution — not a sales pitch.
If you want to know what your Mon County house is actually worth to a cash buyer today, call or text 304-534-8861 and Jeff will pick up. That’s it. No forms, no spam, no pressure.
Tell us about your house to receive a fair cash offer fast.

START HERE: We buy houses in ANY CONDITION. Whether you need to sell your home fast for cash or list with a local agent for top dollar, we can help.
Who We Help in Morgantown and Mon County
Every Morgantown house we buy has a story behind it. We’ve sat at kitchen tables in Suncrest, on porches in South Park, and in driveways off Greenbag Road — listening to people work through hard situations. Here’s who we most often help:
Facing Foreclosure in Mon County If you’re behind on payments and the sheriff’s sale date is creeping closer, time matters more than top dollar. We can often close in 7–14 days, pay off your lender directly, and stop the foreclosure from hitting your credit. We’ve helped homeowners off Stewart Street, in Westover, and out near Sabraton Industrial Park avoid foreclosure entirely.
Going Through a Divorce Splitting a Morgantown house is one of the messiest parts of any divorce — especially when one spouse wants to keep it and the other wants out. We make clean, written cash offers that work with both attorneys, close on a date the court is comfortable with, and never make either side feel cornered.
Inherited a House You Don’t Want to Manage A lot of Morgantown homes we buy come from out-of-state heirs who inherited mom or grandma’s place near WVU, on the North Hills, or out toward Cheat Lake and don’t want to fly in to clean it out, fix it up, and list it. We handle probate-friendly closings, buy the property fully furnished, and you don’t even need to empty it. Leave what you don’t want — we’ll take care of it.
Tired Landlord With Student Rentals Maybe you’ve owned a duplex near WVU’s downtown campus, a Sunnyside student rental, or a single-family in Evansdale for fifteen years and you’re done with 3 AM phone calls, eviction filings, and unpaid rent. We buy tenant-occupied properties as-is — leases and all. You walk away clean.
House in Rough Shape Fire damage, foundation issues, hoarder situations, water damage from a busted pipe over winter break, dated kitchens from the 70s — we’ve seen it all, and we still write offers. You don’t fix a thing. You don’t clean a thing.
Relocating for a Job or School If you’re leaving Morgantown for a new role, a transfer out of Mylan or Mon Health, a military reassignment, or a job in another state — we can close on your timeline, even if that’s three weeks or three months out.
Six Real Ways We Can Buy Your Morgantown House
Most “we buy houses” companies offer one thing: a lowball cash price. We’re different because we offer six different exit strategies — and we’ll honestly tell you which one nets you the most money.
Straight Cash Purchase The classic. We pay all cash, close at a local title company in Morgantown or Fairmont, cover standard closing costs, and you pick the closing date. Best for sellers who need speed, certainty, and a clean walk-away.
Subject-To (Sub-To) We take over your existing mortgage payments while the loan stays in your name. You walk away from the property and the monthly payment, and we make those payments on time, every time. Best for sellers with little equity, a great interest rate, or who simply want out from under a payment fast.
Seller Financing You become the bank. We pay you a down payment, then monthly payments at an agreed interest rate over a set number of years. Best for sellers who own free-and-clear and want steady monthly income and major tax advantages over a lump-sum sale.
Lease Option We lease the property from you with a written option to buy at an agreed price by an agreed date. Best for sellers who can wait a little longer for top dollar but want a quality tenant in place immediately.
Fix and List Our in-house program: we cover the repair costs upfront, manage all the work with our Mon and Marion County contractors, then list the home on the MLS so it sells for top retail price. You don’t pay a dime out of pocket — costs come out of the sale. Best for nicer Morgantown homes that just need updating to hit their real ceiling.
Traditional MLS Listing We can simply list your home on the MLS the right way and earn your business through service, not pressure. Best for move-in-ready homes where the market will do the work for you.

About Jeff Merrifield — Why Morgantown Sellers Trust 304 House Buyers
I grew up in Fairmont, graduated from West Virginia University right here in Morgantown, and served in the West Virginia Army National Guard. I’ve been investing in North Central WV real estate since 2019, and 304 House Buyers is a family operation — not a national chain, not a hedge fund, not a wholesaler flipping your contract to a stranger in Texas.
When you call 304-534-8861, you get me. When we sit down at your kitchen table in Suncrest or your living room in Westover, that’s the same person who’ll be at the closing table. That continuity is rare in this business, and it’s exactly why we’ve earned a perfect 5.0 rating across 17 Google reviews and a steady stream of referrals from previous sellers, local attorneys, and probate clerks throughout Mon, Marion, and Harrison counties.
Morgantown Seller FAQs
How fast can you close on my Morgantown house? As fast as a local title company can pull the paperwork — typically 7 to 14 days for a straight cash purchase. If you need longer, we’ll close on the date that works for you, even 60 or 90 days out.
Do I have to clean or repair anything before you buy it? No. Leave the dirty dishes, the leftover furniture, the broken water heater, the boxes in the attic. We buy as-is, condition and contents included.
Will I get a fair price, or is this a lowball offer? We’ll show you exactly how we calculated the offer using recent Morgantown comps — Suncrest, Cheat Lake, South Park, Evansdale, wherever the property is. You’ll also know what your house would net if you listed it traditionally through us, so you can compare side by side and pick whichever path makes you the most money.
Do you buy WVU-area rentals with tenants in place? Yes. We regularly buy student rentals near downtown campus, in Sunnyside, and in Evansdale — leases and all. No need to wait for turnover or risk a vacant summer.
Are there any fees or commissions? Not on a cash sale. No agent commissions, no closing cost fees on your side, no inspection or appraisal contingencies. The number we agree on is the number you get at the closing table.
Ready to See What Your Morgantown House Is Worth?

Sold As-Is Without Hassle
“Highly recommend giving these guys a call. I was looking to sell my house as quickly as possible and they worked fast to get me info and present me with options. My daughter had lived in the house but was moving on and I knew the house needed some work but I just wanted to sell it as-is and knew it would be a hard sell if listed. They looked it over and made a quick decision and I got the price I wanted without haggling and having to deal with showings, inspections, etc. Everything was transparent and no hidden agenda or surprises and they paid all the closing costs and even some of the final utility bills.”
Foundation In The Community
“Jeff and his companies are great to work with. They have strong character and a foundation in the communities that they do business in. They have a vast knowledge of the local real estate and the needs that fit within that community. They are very trustworthy and reliable. Doing business with them is always a breeze and a great experience.”
Knowledgeable, Honest, & Dependable
“I am an attorney who practices law in north-central West Virginia. I have had multiple interactions with Jeff Merrifield and others who work with his company while providing legal services to Jeff and his clients. Jeff Merrifield is everything you would want in a realtor. He is hard-working, knowledgeable, honest, dependable, and punctual. When my own son was looking to buy a house, Jeff was the first person we contacted. If I trust Jeff to help my own son pick out a house, you will be well served allowing him to assist you or your family members as well.”
