Selling a house or land as-is in New Hampshire.
Star Thing Valley, a real estate investment brand of Star Thing LLC, buys houses and land as-is in New Hampshire, or assigns its contract to an investor who buys. We pay the closing costs.
Star Thing LLC is not a licensed real estate broker. This solicitation is not from a licensed real estate professional.
What we take off your plate.
Why sellers work with us.
- Our investor network.
We work with investors, builders and land buyers, and with companies that show signed contracts to those buyers. When we assign, we offer the contract to buyers who buy properties like yours. We share your property's details only after you sign.
- No repairs.
We buy as-is. You don't fix, renovate or stage anything. We prefer the property vacant and clear of trash, but it doesn't have to be; we take its condition into account in our price.
- No commission, and we pay the closing costs.
There's no agent commission. We pay deed preparation, transfer taxes, title insurance, recording and the closing agent's fees. If we assign the contract, we're paid a fee from the difference between your price and what the buyer pays.
- No bank loan needed.
Our contract doesn't depend on a loan. During the 14-business-day inspection period we may still cancel, including if we can't buy it, partner on it or pass the contract to another buyer.
- Liens and back taxes, paid from your proceeds at closing.
Any mortgage, liens or unpaid taxes are paid from your sale proceeds at closing, through the title company or closing attorney. If they add up to more than the price, the difference has to be covered before closing; we'll tell you if we see that.
- Inherited or complicated ownership.
We work through death certificates, probate and heirs' paperwork to confirm who can sell.
- You always know where you stand.
Our full contract is public, your state's extra terms have their own page, and there's a fixed end date: if we don't confirm by business day 14, the contract ends on its own and you're free to sell to anyone. The closing date is written in your contract; ask us about it before you sign. Read the full contract →

Before you sign.
Four things every seller should know.
- We may assign the contract.
We may assign your contract to an investor or an affiliated company (a company with the same owner as Star Thing LLC), which then buys your property at your price.
- After an assignment, you deal with the new buyer.
Once the new buyer signs an agreement to take over our obligations and we send you a copy with their name and contact details, they take our place, and Star Thing LLC is released. You agree to this release when you sign.
- The inspection period is 14 business days.
Weekends and federal and state holidays don't count. If we don't confirm in writing that we're moving forward, the contract ends on its own.
- Vacant and clear of trash is preferred, not required.
If tenants, belongings or trash will still be there at closing, tell us before we make an offer. We take it into account in our price, and the contract lists anything that stays.

Terms in your contract
Principal
Buyer is purchasing as a principal for its own account and is not Seller's agent or broker. Seller consents now to Buyer's assignment of this agreement to any assignee, and Seller will close with the assignee on these terms.
Required notices (RSA 477:4-a)
Radon: Radon, the product of decay of radioactive materials in rock, may be found in some areas of New Hampshire. Radon gas may pass into a structure through the ground or through water from a deep well. Testing of the air by a professional certified in radon testing and testing of the water by an accredited laboratory can establish radon's presence and equipment is available to remove it from the air or water. Arsenic: Arsenic is a common groundwater contaminant in New Hampshire that occurs at unhealthy levels in well water in many areas of the state. Tests are available to determine whether arsenic is present at unsafe levels, and equipment is available to remove it from water. The buyer is encouraged to consult the New Hampshire department of environmental services private well testing recommendations (www.des.nh.gov) to ensure a safe water supply if the subject property is served by a private well. Lead: Before 1978, paint containing lead may have been used in structures. Exposure to lead from the presence of flaking, chalking, chipping lead paint or lead paint dust from friction surfaces, or from the disturbance of intact surfaces containing lead paint through unsafe renovation, repair, or painting practices, or from soils in close proximity to the building, can present a serious health hazard, especially to young children and pregnant women. Lead may also be present in drinking water as a result of lead in service lines, plumbing and fixtures. Tests are available to determine whether lead is present in paint or drinking water. PFAS: Poly-and perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are found in products that are used in domestic, commercial, institutional and industrial settings. These chemical compounds have been detected at levels that exceed federal and/or state advisories or standards in wells throughout New Hampshire, but are more frequently detected at elevated levels in southern New Hampshire. Testing of the water by an accredited laboratory can measure PFAS levels and inform a buyer's decision regarding the need to install water treatment systems. Flood: Properties in coastal areas and along waterways may be subject to increased risk of flooding over time. A standard homeowners insurance policy typically does not cover flood damage. The buyer is encouraged to determine whether separate flood insurance is required and consult the Federal Emergency Management Agency's flood maps (FEMA.GOV) in order to determine if the property is in a designated flood zone.
Seller disclosures
If the Property includes a building, Seller has given Buyer the water, sewage (including approved seating capacity if the Property is a food service establishment), insulation, flood-zone and heating-oil tank disclosures required by RSA 477:4-c and 477:4-d no later than when Buyer prepared its offer, stating 'unknown' where Seller does not know.
Other disclosures (RSA 477:4-g, 477:4-h)
No later than when Buyer prepared its offer, Seller disclosed in writing whether, to Seller's knowledge, methamphetamine production has occurred on the Property (RSA 477:4-g), and whether any metered public utility service at the Property is provided under a tariff with unamortized or ongoing charges for energy efficiency or renewable energy improvements under RSA 374:61, with the remaining term and amount if known, or a written statement that the information is not available (RSA 477:4-h). Buyer acknowledged receipt by signing a copy.
