Richmond County home sales, by the numbers
From Augusta-Richmond County's own sales records for the 12 months through October 2026, the county recorded 2,186 qualified residential sales (sales the county marks as normal market sales). The median price was $186,900, and the middle half of sales fell between $100,000 and $274,430.
Those are mostly houses in good shape sold on the open market. A house that needs major work usually sells for less, and its buyer usually needs cash, because many lenders won't finance a house with a bad roof, foundation, or plumbing. That's the gap we fill: we buy the house as it sits.

Questions from Richmond County sellers
What companies buy houses for cash in Richmond County, GA?
Several local investors and national companies buy houses for cash here. Smith Asset Group LLC is based in Augusta and buys anywhere in Richmond County. Whoever you talk to, ask for the offer in writing, ask who the closing attorney is, and never pay an upfront fee to sell your house.
Do you buy houses as-is in Richmond County?
Yes. We buy houses that need roofs, plumbing, foundation work, or a full rehab, plus houses with fire or water damage, code violations, or tenants in place. You don't fix or clean anything.
How fast can I sell my house for cash?
When the title is clear, a cash sale can usually close in a few weeks, and you can choose a later date if you need more time. Liens, probate, or title problems can add time; we'll tell you up front if we see any.
How do you decide on a cash offer?
We look at recent sales of similar houses nearby from county records, estimate what the house needs, and walk you through the math. A cash offer is usually below full retail value; in exchange you skip repairs, showings, and waiting on a buyer's loan.
Can I sell if I owe back taxes or the house is in probate?
Often, yes. Back property taxes are usually paid from the sale at closing. For inherited houses, the estate's representative typically needs authority to sell; a Georgia closing attorney can tell you what your situation requires.
Do I pay commissions or fees?
No commissions or fees to us. We'll put in writing who pays which closing costs before you sign anything.
