Myths busted: how this Huntsville home-buying company really works
Sponsored
Did you know that nearly 10 years ago several Huntsville High School baseball state champs joined together to start a Huntsville home-buying company? And it’s unlike any traditional real estate process you’ve seen before.
Read on to learn about the cool things the Local Home Buyers are doing, plus discover some myths we debunk about their process.
Myth #1: Local Home Buyers isn’t based in Huntsville
Say what?! Yep, this is one myth floating around Huntsville. Here’s why:
Many companies claim to be local but operate out of state; rest assured, this company is truly local through and through.
The entire Local Home Buyers team was raised right here in Rocket City. Members AJ Cole, Michael Hitt, Brantley Johnson and Jordan Cole all played baseball at Huntsville High School, where they won a state championship together.
Other team members feature Richard Cole—father of AJ and Jordan—and Brian Utley who coached the baseball stars while they were growing up.

Myth #2: Their process isn’t easier than traditional real estate
Wondering if working with Local Home Buyers is really that much easier than a typical real estate transaction? Here’s a breakdown of their process:
- First, you’ll fill Local Home Buyers in on all the details of your property.
- If it meets their buying criteria, a team member will reach out to set up a quick appointment.
- They’ll present you with a fair, no-obligation cash offer.
- You’ll get the offer within 24 hours, and it will close on your timeline—whether that be one day, one month or one year
- They’ll close at a local reputable title company, and you’ll get the cash in your hands in as little as 7 days.
“In a typical real estate transaction process, there’s a lot of back and forth and unknowns—like inspection, appraisal, requests for repairs, closing costs and more.
We don’t make a commitment to the home seller unless we are 100% certain we can honor it. We are in communication with the seller from start to finish and are as transparent as possible.”
Jordan Cole
Myth #3: You’re not getting as good of a deal
One of the biggest advantages of working with Local Home Buyers is the flexibility. They’ve had deals go through within 48 hours, and they’ve worked with sellers who plan to move in two years. The bottom line: They can close on your timeline.
Plus, since their closing process is straightforward, you likely won’t encounter any delays or unexpected fees. For many many people, this could be the best home selling solution for their needs.
To help home sellers understand the difference, AJ uses the gas station analogy:
“Say you’re driving out of town going on vacation, you’ve got the family in the car and you need to get gas and stop for snacks. You have two options: the gas station right off the interstate where the prices are slightly higher or the station miles down the road where the prices are a bit lower.
For many people, the best answer is the closest gas station, so they can get back on the interstate to enjoy their vacation as soon as possible.”
AJ Cole
“Not only can we close on your timeline, but we cater the entire closing process to you as our client. That means no hassle, no showings, no closing costs and absolutely no commissions. We are the end buyer, and we want to work with you.
Our clients are constantly impressed by the speed, convenience and consistency of closing, but what impresses me is the peace of mind that we deliver to our clients while keeping more money in their pocket than they otherwise would have walked away with—a true win-win.”

Myth #4: You’re just a number to Local Home Buyers
Although Local Home Buyers has sold over 1,000 homes, they don’t think in numbers—they value people.
They meet with sellers in person, sitting down in their living rooms with them and seeking to understand their unique situations.
“It’s important to understand and appreciate that 1,000+ homes bought means 1,000+ unique cases and families helped.”
Brian Utley
Countless sellers have worked with them more than once, claiming they won’t partner with anyone else and love Local Home Buyers’ personal approach.
“After working with a seller for just a week and a half, I got invited to his wedding. I love the opportunity to build personal connections in our community.”
Brantley Johnson
Local Home Buyers thrives on community. With over 200 five-star Google Reviews, it’s easy to see why 50% of their business comes from client referrals and repeat customers—a true sign of satisfaction.
Myth #5: The Local Home Buyer team isn’t big enough to get it all done
Local Home Buyers may seem like a lean team, but they get the job done. Just like in baseball, these guys are utility players.
“Being on a small business team, you learn how to do everything. We all know every step of the process. That makes our team top notch because we understand how to value one another’s role, fill in for each other and work together.”
Jordan Cole
“A lot of people say you shouldn’t go into business with friends and family, but I highly recommend it. They have your back more than anyone else does, and you can trust each other.”
Michael Hitt
