Cash Home Buyers in West Beach, Gulf Shores — Get a Fair Offer in 24 Hours
Selling a home in West Beach, Gulf Shores? We buy cash.
I’m Drew Rodriguez, and my partner Tony Bertucci and I have been buying houses and condos across the Alabama Gulf Coast for years. If you own a beach cottage on West 1st Street, a condo in one of the Gulf-front towers like Islander, Windemere, or Grand Beach, or a canal-side property off West 5th, we already know your building or block. Fill out the form at the top of this page or call us at (504) 920-4747 and we’ll have a real cash number for you inside 24 hours.
West Beach is the stretch that runs west from Gulf Shores’ main drag out toward Fort Morgan Peninsula. You’ve got the Gulf-front condo towers, the older beach cottages on the interior streets like West 1st through West 5th, the canal properties on Lagoon Pass and Beach Boulevard, and the newer single-family builds in developments like The Retreat and Kiva Dunes back toward the state park.
Price bands run wide. A one-bedroom Gulf-front condo in a 1980s tower can trade in the $260s to $310s. A three-bedroom canal cottage on West Lagoon might land in the $525k to $675k range. A newer Gulf-view four-bedroom in a Class-A building can push well past $1M. Every offer we write is building-specific and unit-specific. We look at HOA health, pending special assessments, roof age on the tower, insurance history, and the exact view your unit has.
Why sellers in West Beach, Gulf Shores call us
The single biggest reason West Beach owners call us is vacation-rental burnout. Someone bought a two-bedroom in 2020 or 2021, ran it on Airbnb through the peak, and is now netting less than $18k after HOA, insurance, cleaning, and PM fees. They’re tired of the guest calls, tired of the cleaning-fee complaints, and ready to be done. We also see hurricane-damage sellers: units that took wind or water in Sally that were partially repaired and never fully put back together, and owners whose insurance carrier non-renewed after the storm.
The Gulf Coast vacation-rental burnout throughline
A large share of the sellers who call us from West Beach, Gulf Shores and the rest of the Baldwin County coast bought their property during the post-COVID short-term-rental boom. They ran it on VRBO or Airbnb, netted well through 2022, and are now sitting on tightening margins, cleaning-fee ceilings, rising insurance premiums, and the Baldwin County short-term-rental licensing tightening cycle. They’re not in trouble. They’re just done. We buy vacation-rental units as-is, furnished, with active bookings on the books if that’s easier. We handle the CLUE-report claim history, the wind-mitigation certificate, and the flood-zone documentation on our side.
