Selling a House in Lemay
Lemay is an unincorporated community in South County, sitting along the Mississippi River and the River des Peres, just north of Jefferson Barracks. It isn’t its own city, so St. Louis County handles the permits and rules. The houses here are mostly smaller brick homes, bungalows, and older frame houses on modest lots, many of them owned by the same families for generations.
Older homes, smaller budgets
Older Lemay homes often need the kind of work that’s hard to finance: foundation cracks, tuckpointing, sewer lateral problems, old electrical, and roofs at the end of their life. Buyers using FHA or VA loans may not be able to close on a house until those issues are fixed. We buy as-is with our own funds, so the condition of the house doesn’t hold up the sale.
Rentals and inherited houses
We also buy Lemay rentals with tenants in place, and inherited houses that nobody in the family wants to manage. If you live out of town and the house is sitting empty, we can handle most of the sale with a single visit.
A note on inspections: occupancy-inspection rules vary across St. Louis County, so check with the county about what applies to your sale. You won’t be making repairs to sell to us either way.

- One visit. We come out once to see the house and meet you.

- Sell it as-is. No repairs and no cleanup required.
- Your closing date. As little as 7 days, or later if you need time.
Our offers are below full retail value, because we take on the repairs and the risk. We’ll always be upfront about that, and whether you say yes is 100% your decision. See the full process on our How It Works page and compare options on our Compare page.
Cash Home Buyers in Lemay: Who Is Really Buying?
Here’s the truth: a lot of the “we buy houses” signs on South County telephone poles belong to wholesalers. They sign a contract on your house, then try to sell that contract to an actual buyer. Ask, “Are you buying my house, or assigning the contract?” We buy with our own funds and close through a title company. Our article Don’t Be Fooled by Advertising explains what to look for.
Nearby, we also buy houses in Affton, Mehlville, Oakville, and across St. Louis County.
A House We Bought in Lemay
- Bought
- 2023
- Condition
- Dated throughout, belongings left inside
This Lemay house was the first one we bought as Swift Home Buys. It still had belongings inside, and it was dated from top to bottom, from the kitchen to the bathrooms.
After we bought it in 2023, it got a major overhaul: new flooring, a new kitchen, new bathrooms and a new roof.

Selling a House in Lemay: Your Questions
Do you buy houses in Lemay, MO?
Yes. We buy houses throughout Lemay and the 63125 ZIP code, in any condition.
Will you buy a house with foundation or sewer problems?
Yes. We buy as-is, including houses with foundation, sewer lateral, roof, or electrical issues.
I live out of town. Can I still sell my Lemay house?
Yes. We visit the house once, and the closing is handled through a title company. Talk with the title company about remote signing options.
How fast can I sell my house in Lemay?
We can close in as little as 7 days, or on a later date you choose.
Do I pay commissions or closing costs?
No. You won’t pay real estate commissions, and we cover the closing costs. Any mortgage or liens are paid off from the sale at closing.
Can you buy an inherited house in probate?
Often, yes. The personal representative usually needs to be appointed by the St. Louis County probate court before the house can be sold. Our guide to selling an inherited home in probate explains the steps. This isn’t legal advice, so talk with a probate attorney about your situation.
