About Launch Homebuyers
For years, the only option for most Omaha house sellers has been to list their property on the market, try to sell it yourself, or hold on to it hoping the problem will go away. Launch Homebuyers saw the gap in the local market for all of the property owners who don’t want to (or can’t) sell through the traditional route with an agent.
We provide win-win solutions to help homeowners get out of their sticky situations, including foreclosure, owning a burdensome property, probate, or anything else. Our focus is on providing you with a solution to your situation so you can continue to do the things you love.
