Maumelle, AR ยท Pulaski County
We buy houses in Maumelle for cash.
Maumelle sits north of the Arkansas River, next to North Little Rock and a short drive from downtown Little Rock. The city was built from scratch starting in the 1970s as a planned community, so most of what we buy here is a newer house that has reached the point of needing real repairs, or a home a long-time owner or their family is ready to let go of.

Selling a house in Maumelle
Maumelle did not grow the way most Arkansas towns did. Businessman Jess Odom bought about 5,000 acres here in 1967 and built the city from scratch as a planned community backed by HUD, and the first family moved in during the spring of 1974. That start shows up directly in the housing today. Census data puts 87 percent of Maumelle homes built in 1980 or later, and the single biggest building decade was the 2000s. A lot of those houses are now old enough that the original roof, water heater, or HVAC system is at or past its expected life, and that is often the point where an owner decides fixing everything before a sale is not worth it.
Maumelle also grew fast, then stopped. Population rose more than half each decade through 2010, then slowed to about 12 percent growth in the 2010s and has stayed close to flat since. That makes it a mature, built-out market rather than a boom town, and it means more of our calls here are long-time owners aging in place or a family sorting out a house after a death. The job base has shifted too. The city's own financial reports show Molex, still Maumelle's largest employer, cut its local workforce roughly in half between 2012 and 2021, while other employers added distribution jobs. Changes like that are often what starts a move out of town, and a house does not always wait for the market to cooperate.
We buy across Maumelle, including Country Club of Arkansas , Maumelle Valley Estates , Rolling Oaks , Edgewater , and Riverland . If your street is not on that list, it does not matter. We buy anywhere in Maumelle.
Where the paperwork happens in Pulaski County
Maumelle is in Pulaski County, but Little Rock is the county seat, not Maumelle. The county courthouse is at 401 West Markham Street in Little Rock, and that is where the Circuit Clerk records deeds for a Maumelle house, for a $15 first-page recording fee. Pulaski County has no separate elected collector, so the county treasurer's office handles property tax bills, due each year from the first business day of March through October 15.

When we are not your best option in Maumelle
If the house shows well and you can wait a few months, selling it on the open market usually brings a higher price, even after the fees that come with it. We will tell you if that is what we would do in your position.
If the goal is to keep the house and the trouble is missed payments, a HUD approved housing counselor is free and can walk you through the options with your lender first.
And if our number does not do what you need it to do, we will say so plainly instead of talking you into it.
Call (501) 251-9330 and ask. You will talk to one of us.

Questions Maumelle sellers ask us
Is Maumelle in Pulaski County?
Yes. Maumelle is one of eight cities in Pulaski County, but it is not the county seat. Little Rock is the county seat, and that is where deeds and property records for a Maumelle house are handled.
Do you buy houses in Country Club of Arkansas or other Maumelle subdivisions?
Yes. We buy across Maumelle, including Country Club of Arkansas, Maumelle Valley Estates, Rolling Oaks, Edgewater, and Riverland. A property owners association or golf course lot does not stop us from making an offer.
My Maumelle house was built in the 2000s. Does that matter for a cash offer?
Not to whether we will buy it. About a third of the houses in Maumelle were built in the 2000s, and a lot of those are now old enough that the roof, water heater, or HVAC is reaching the end of its life. We buy the house as it sits and account for those repairs in the number instead of asking you to make them first.
Where do I record a deed for a house in Maumelle?
At the Pulaski County Circuit Clerk's Real Estate Department in Little Rock, since Maumelle is in Pulaski County and Little Rock is the county seat. Recording runs $15 for the first page and $5 for each page after that. We handle that step as part of closing.
Do you really buy houses in any condition?
Yes. We buy houses with bad roofs, foundation problems, fire or water damage, and houses full of belongings. You do not need to repair, clean, or clear anything out.
How fast will I get my offer?
We call you with a guaranteed cash offer within 24 hours of getting your property details.
Are there any fees or commissions?
No. There are no agent commissions and no service fees, and we cover the typical closing costs, meaning the title work. The offer we make is the cash you receive at closing.
Is the offer really guaranteed?
Yes. You get a written cash offer with no financing contingency. If you accept it, that is the amount you are paid at closing.
