Sell your Concord house for cash, as it is.
Concord is the biggest city in Contra Costa County, and most of it went up between 1950 and 1980. That means a lot of single-story ranches on quarter-acre lots, many with the original kitchen and a garage that became a family room at some point. Those are the houses that sell as-is here.
The houses we see most in Concord
Each kind comes with its own repairs. A cash buyer prices them into the offer, so you don't fix anything first.
Two-story tract house
Clayton Valley and the newer edges of town. 1980s and 90s houses due for big-ticket systems.
What's different about selling in Concord
The local rules that show up in a Concord sale, in plain English.
Transfer tax
Contra Costa County charges $1.10 per $1,000 of the sale price. Concord has no separate city transfer tax, so the total is the county's $1.10 per $1,000.
If the house is rented
Concord's Residential Tenant Protection Program has been in effect since April 2024. Single-family homes are exempt from its rent stabilization caps, but landlords of exempt homes still have to follow its just-cause rules.
Worth knowing in Concord
Clay soil in parts of central Contra Costa swells in winter and shrinks in summer, so cracked slabs, sticking doors and uneven floors are common findings in older Concord houses. A cash buyer looks at that on the walkthrough and builds it into the offer.
