We buy houses in Columbia Heights
Built for how Columbia Heights homes really sell.
Columbia Heights runs along the 14th Street corridor around its Metro station, and its housing is a genuine mix: Victorian and Edwardian rowhouses, many carved into condos during the mid-2000s conversion wave, alongside small apartment buildings and 1920s walk-ups. That blend pulls the neighborhood's median toward the middle of the DC range, with rowhomes trading above $700,000 and converted condos starting well below. For an owner selling a tenant-occupied building, the mix also raises questions the rest of the city rarely meets at the same density.
Nobu Holdings buys across that whole range in Columbia Heights, from a single-family rowhome to a small tenant-occupied building, in as-is condition and for a single cash offer with the comps laid out. A dedicated local operator reviews the property and, where tenants are in place, maps how DC's tenant-purchase rules apply before anything is signed. You pay no commissions and no fees, arrange no repairs and no showings, and pick a closing date at a local title company that can land in as little as 14 days.

Local questions
Selling a house in Columbia Heights - questions we hear
I own a tenant-occupied building in Columbia Heights. How does TOPA affect my sale?
It depends on the building. DC's Tenant Opportunity to Purchase Act can give tenants the first chance to buy before an outside sale, though single-family homes have been exempt since 2018 and 2025's RENTAL Act narrowed it further for many properties. We map how it applies before you sign.
Do you buy converted condos as well as whole rowhouses here?
Yes. Columbia Heights is a patchwork of Victorian rowhouses, mid-2000s condo conversions, and small walk-up apartment buildings, and we buy across all of them. Whether you hold one converted unit or an entire rowhome carved into flats, you get a single cash offer with the math shown.
The rowhome has an English basement unit that was rented off the books. Can you still buy?
Yes. Basement units brought online without proper zoning or a certificate of occupancy are common along the 14th Street corridor. We buy the property as it stands and take on the legalization question ourselves, so you are not applying for permits on the way out.
What if my Columbia Heights property is stuck in probate?
That is fine. DC estates pass through the Probate Division of the Superior Court, which rarely moves quickly. We keep our offer open while the Register of Wills processes the estate and buy once it can deliver title, on a schedule that works for the family.
