ENC Home Solutions buys houses in Kinston and across Lenoir County for cash, as-is. In Kinston, the Neuse River shapes a lot: Hurricanes Fran, Floyd and Matthew all flooded parts of the city, and after those storms many homes in the floodplain were bought out and turned into open space and parks. The neighborhoods that remain are full of older, solid houses that simply need work, and we buy them without asking you to fix a thing.
ENC Home Solutions is a family-owned cash home buyer in Greenville, North Carolina, buying houses, land and mobile homes across Pitt County and Eastern North Carolina since 2020, with 150+ properties bought and counting.
Kinston homes we buy
- Pre-war and mill-era houses in and around the historic districts, from Mitchelltown to Queen and Gordon Streets
- Homes with past water damage, crawl space moisture or patched storm repairs
- Inherited houses where the heirs live out of town
- Rentals that need too much work to keep renting
- Houses with code enforcement letters or unpaid city or county taxes
Is flooding going to stop me from selling?
Not with us. Homes near flood-prone areas can scare off buyers using a loan, because their lender may require flood insurance and an inspector may flag past water damage. We buy flood-affected houses as they are. If your home is in good shape and away from the river, listing with an agent may bring more, and we will tell you when that is the better path. See Cash Offer or List With an Agent?.
Where is Kinston property paperwork handled?
Kinston is the Lenoir County seat, so everything is local. Deeds are recorded with the Lenoir County Register of Deeds on North Queen Street, estates and foreclosure filings go through the Clerk of Superior Court at the Lenoir County Courthouse on South Queen Street, and property taxes are billed by Lenoir County and the City of Kinston.
Why sell to a Greenville company?
Kinston is about 30 miles south of us on NC-11, close enough that we can walk your property within a few days and close with a local attorney. We are a family business, not a national franchise, and you will talk with the same small team from first call to closing.
How does selling to ENC Home Solutions work?
- Call us or fill out the form. Tell us the address and a little about the property.
