I’m Dennis, owner of Family First Homebuyers. I’ve been buying properties across the St. Louis area for over 10 years.
Over the past decade, I’ve worked directly with agents and their clients on 200+ acquisitions. I understand how important the agent-client relationship is, and I make it a priority to protect that, communicate clearly, and help get deals to the closing table.
Whether it’s a tough property, a unique situation, or just a second opinion — my goal is to be a resource to you, not competition.
Whether you’re an agent or a homeowner already working with one, we’re happy to work together throughout the process.
We believe agents play a vital role as advocates and trusted resources when it comes to selling a home. Our goal is to work alongside that relationship — not around it — to help create the best possible outcome.
- Property needs repairs and won’t qualify for traditional financing
- Seller needs speed or certainty
- A deal fell apart and needs a backup plan
- Unique situations (inheritance, tenants, distress, etc.)
- Seller wants to explore options before listing
- Clear and consistent communication
- No going around you — we respect your relationship
- Flexible solutions (not just one offer)
- A buyer who actually closes
- A smooth process from contract to closing
- Direct access to the owner
- Local, relationship-focused approach
- Experience with over 1,000 closings
- Ability to structure deals creatively when needed
- Focus on solutions — not just acquisitions
Whether it’s sitting down one-on-one, doing a quick presentation for your team, or hosting a lunch and learn at your office, I’m always open to sharing and being a resource. Even if we never do a deal together, my goal is to be someone you can call when you need a second opinion or a different perspective.
Even if I’m not the right buyer, I’m always happy to help you think through a deal.
Call or e-mail us anytime – or submit your property here.
