"*" indicates required fields
Essex grew up around the Glenn L. Martin aircraft plant. Many of its homes still date from that wartime building boom. Post-war ranchers line the side streets off Mace Avenue and the Eastern Boulevard corridor. Brick Cape Cods and small colonials fill the blocks toward Middle River, and older cottages sit along the Essex waterfront on Back River and Hopkins Creek. Owners usually call us when an aging house needs a new roof and furnace in the same year, when bulkheads and flood repairs keep draining the budget, when they’re settling a parent’s estate, or when they’re done being a landlord. Houses For Cash Baltimore will buy your Essex home exactly as it stands.
Call (410) 989-5200 or fill out the form to get your Essex cash offer.
Most Essex homes are 60 to 80 years old. Many still have original roofing, worn-out HVAC systems, and, near the Middle River and Back River shorelines, flood zone designations that usually need costly insurance. Those issues can stall a financed buyer’s appraisal, inspection, or loan approval. A cash sale skips the lender entirely so that the house can sell as-is.
Skip the hassle of listing your home. With our Essex, MD Cash Offer Program, we can give you a fair, all-cash offer in as little as 24 hours—no obligations, no fees.

EXCELLENT Based on 30 reviews Posted on Google Phyliss WarlickTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We needed help selling my brother's property when he became unable to maintain his house due to some health problems. Joe Hartman was a great help. My brother was in a nursing home and they were able to have the settlement take place there. There were a lot of challenges and he helped us with everything along the way. I would definitely recommend Joe and his team to anyone needing a quick cash settlement.Posted on Google Dassi LazarTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a great experience purchasing a property with Joe. The entire process was handled professionally from start to finish. Joe followed through on their commitments, communicated clearly, and were always available to answer questions.Posted on Google Ken GrahamTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My brother contacted Joe several months ago regarding our mother's house in Aberdeen. He patiently waited and kept in touch until our mother made the decision to sell her house and adjoining property. Joe came to my mother's assisted living so she could sign the paperwork and he was so patient with her and ended up spending 2 hours there listening to her recount stories of her life in Germany in WW2. I was then made the point of contact for the transaction. I can not say enough about how easy Joe made the process. He worked with us on a closing date that was probably farther out than normal and kept us in the loop the entire time. I have absolutely no hesitation about recommending Joe and Perry Hall Investment Group to anyone who is in a situation where you need to sell as-is. This is who you should go to.Posted on Google Janet FaulstichTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. January 2026 Joe Hartman came to my house, took the tour and made me a fair offer on the spot. I was not ready to move until May 2026 so Joe walked me through the process and kept in touch over the 4 month process. Settlement was set for late May, went to the meeting, and 25 minutes walked out with a check for the offer he made me in January. No hassles, no repairs, no inspections, very smooth and clean process. I was very pleased with the procedure. And to boot, Joe is one heck of a nice guy. Russ BrownPosted on Google Silkman RichardsonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. “I would love to extend my heartfelt appreciation for Joe Hartman and the Perry Hall Investment Group for their professionalism as well as their personal care in helping my mom sell her house. My dad recently passed and they shared their home for 35 years and with the personal items and memories shared it was becoming hard for my mom to be there alone. Joe was patient and thorough in what he said his company does and they delivered every step of the way from start to finish with no pressure, no misleading information and not just trying to "close the deal" I would highly recommmend Joe and PHIG to anyone looking to sell a property. It's good to know that there are people and businesses that can still operate today with honesty and integrity as well as care and concern for their customers. Thanks Joe,Posted on Google ruby leutyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I just wanted to leave a review for Joe Hartman and Perry Hall Investment group. The team at PHIG were wonderful to work with and I would recommend them to anyone who’s in need of selling a house. Great experience give Joe a call directlyPosted on Google Jenna HallTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Very quick and easy to do business with! Joe was friendly and met our timeline.Posted on Google Melanie NelsonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Had a very positive experience with Joe and his team. Very fair price and the process was very timely and seamless. I definitely recommend this company!Posted on Google Eric HewittTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My family is truly grateful to Joe and the Perry Hall Investment team. We came to Joe with Perry Hall Investments when we needed to move my mother into a retirement community. It was a troubling time for us but Joe gave us a great cash offer and worked with our ever changing closing timeframe and needs. He made the process easy and fluid when we thought it would be everything but. During the home inspection more damage was found than was expected and he worked with us to not negotiate and stayed to the prior agreement, which I doubt most home buyers would have done. We are very thankful to have found them in our time of need and would recommend them as honest and reputable to anyone looking to sell a home.Posted on Google Trinitee GrantTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Joe Hartman with Perry hall investment group was a pleasure to work with. Thankyou so much for your time and patience as well!

Listing your home with a local agent can be a good option if your property is move-in ready and you’re prepared to wait for the right buyer. In Essex, MD, and the surrounding Maryland areas we serve, attractive homes can sell quickly on the market. However, selling through an agent often comes with frustrations—financing falling through, multiple open houses, inspections, and prolonged negotiations—which can add months of stress to the process. On top of that, agent commissions and buyer repair requests can significantly reduce your final profit, meaning you may not walk away with the full listing price you expected.
What’s the best way to avoid these uncertainties and long timelines? Sell directly to Houses for Cash Baltimore. We purchase homes straight from homeowners, allowing you to sell fast—without delays, high costs, repairs, or commissions tied to traditional real estate sales.
When you sell your house with our local Cash Home Buyer program, here’s what you can expect…
We’ll know very quickly if we can buy your house, and unlike listing with an agent, you don’t have to worry about buyer financing delays—we’re ready to buy immediately.
When you fill out the short property form below, we’ll provide a fair all-cash offer within 24 hours. Best of all, you decide when to close—whether that’s in a few days or weeks. No matter the condition of your house or if tenants are involved, we’ll handle everything. Need to sell quickly? We can close in as little as 7 days because we buy houses with cash and don’t rely on traditional bank financing.

Yes. We buy homes along Middle River, Back River, and the Essex creeks, including houses in FEMA flood zones and homes with past storm or water damage. Financed buyers often need flood insurance before their lender will approve the loan, and that cost can sink a deal. We don’t use a lender so that flood zone status won’t hold up your sale.
Yes. A 1950s rancher with a tired roof, an old oil furnace, or a damp crawlspace is a normal purchase for us in Essex. We factor those repairs into our offer, then handle the work after settlement. You won’t need to hire a contractor or spend money upfront.
Yes. Essex falls under Baltimore County, so any violation notice comes from Baltimore County Code Enforcement. You’ll disclose the open notice, and we’ll buy the house with it in place. Correcting the violation becomes our responsibility once we own the property.
