FastCashBuy IE was founded in 2012 by Michael A. Torres, a California DRE-licensed Real Estate Broker who built a cash-buying operation specifically for the Inland Empire market. With Riverside and San Bernardino Counties experiencing the fastest population growth in Southern California and significant LA/OC price-pressure migration, Michael designed a process giving IE homeowners a fast, fair alternative to the traditional listing process.

No repairs, no cleaning, no showings. Cash in hand in 7 days. The Inland Empire wildfire corridor (San Bernardino Mountains, foothill communities) and foreclosure-affected areas of Moreno Valley, San Bernardino, and Hemet are among our most active markets.
Orange County median home price is $1,000,000+. Los Angeles median is $800,000+. The Inland Empire median is $550,000 (California Association of Realtors, car.org), making it the most accessible major SoCal market for cash transactions.

FastCashBuy IE purchases tenant-occupied Inland Empire investment properties as-is, with tenants in place. Our cash offer accounts for occupancy. No evictions required before close. We handle the tenant transition after the sale. Ideal for IE landlords exiting the rental market.
$0 is what FastCashBuy IE charges sellers to coordinate lien payoff at close. We purchase Inland Empire properties with IRS tax liens, HOA liens, mechanics liens, unpaid property taxes (San Bernardino and Riverside County tax defaults), code violation fines, and judgment liens. All liens are paid from sale proceeds at the close of escrow. No lien is too complex for our title team.
83 miles is the average one-way commute from San Bernardino to downtown Los Angeles, making the Inland Empire one of the longest average daily commute regions in the United States (US Census Bureau, census.gov).
