Frequently Asked Questions
No. They are not created equal. Some buyers say they are “cash buyers,” but after locking up a deal, apply for a hard money loan or attempt to assign the deal to another buyer. Urban Street is rated “Strong Buyer” by BuyerScout.com rating services, based on 10 key factors.
Yes. We are flexible buyers that can customize an offer to accommodate most seller’s needs.
Sellers get the certainty of a cash offer, with no financing contingency. Typically, the property is purchased “as-is” with no repairs or termite work requested. Also, sellers avoid the inconvenience of open houses and buyer traffic through the property.
We have a great reputation earned over 25 years as a reliable buyer that can be counted on to close on-time with no last-minute drama. Also, we are a one-stop buyer who buys across all property types and throughout Southern California.
We’ll need the property address and, if available, the price the seller is looking to receive for the property. If the property generates income, we will need rental information as well. We suggest that you send this information by email. We can follow up with more questions if needed. Get Offer
In past years, bootleg additions were not scrutinized like they are today. With cities implementing pre-sale inspections combined with stricter lending standards, unpermitted structures are being red-flagged. Little to no value can be attributed to bootlegs because of the time and cost to legalize them.

Urban Street bought my Mother’s house and did everything they said they would. I’m going to recommend them to my friends.
I Contacted Robert at Urban Street Ventures with details about a flip opportunity here in Long Beach. He was quick to respond and we wrote the offer that day. All buyer documentation was available the same day with evidence of cash on hand required to close quickly. This was a very large home on a very large lot. The purchase went very quick and without any issues. His crew worked like Santa's Helpers and completed the myriad of renovations in a few weeks. He was true to his word and listed the property with me and as a result of the stellar workmanship; I was able to put it in escrow in 3 days. I've been selling real estate for over 40 years and in my experience this company is top notch.
I like Urban Street because they have the deep pockets to buy any and all deals that makes sense. They close on time because they have the money in hand. By closing in a timely manner, they made me look good to my clients. They do not wholesale properties to other people, they are a REAL BUYER who only buy for their own account.

My wife and I have rented a house from urban street ventures for the last four years. They have been nothing but great to us. Any time if ever we had a problem our property manager, Gabrielle, always found a solution right away. She treated us so well over the years. She was always so friendly, polite, and understanding of any situation. The property we rented was extremely affordable. We loved it and treated it as though we bought it ourselves. The only reason we ended up moving is because we bought a house. If not, we still would be there. Thank you for everything Gabrielle and urban street ventures.
I just closed my first transaction with Urban Street Ventures, Inc. This team is awesome- quick decision makers and when they say they are going to do something- they do it.

Looking forward to seeing what they do with the property. I highly recommend working with this team. They are quick, efficient and a pleasure to do business with.
Our entire experience with Urban Street Ventures was nothing short of pleasant all around. Robert, Gabrielle, Albert and their entire team made the transaction smooth sailing and efficient.

I’ve worked with Robert Compean and Urban Street Ventures for over 20 years and being in the title insurance business for 32 years I can say without a doubt that he is my best customer. He is always honest, straightforward and by far the hardest working owner in the real estate and investment business.

Robert Compean was one of the most professional investors I have ever met. He is honest, down to earth and has a wonderful office crew that was very responsive. I will gladly call him with any listings that may pencil out for him. Urban Street Ventures is my go to company.
I've been working with Urban Street Properties for over 10 years. We've closed every escrow we've opened, always on time and always all cash. They are every Realtors dream investor. Normally a Realtor wouldn't advertise their prize investor, they're hard to come by, but Urban Street has the resources, the dedication and the capabilities of working on a much larger scale than the typical "1 sale per mo" or the "hard money investor" that we so very often have to contend with. Robert at Urban Street is the real deal.
I have and will continue to work with Robert and his staff at Urban Street Properties. They are very professional and exceedingly efficient . They are very responsive with all deals offered and very fair in their dealing.
Robert and Urban Street Properties are my first choice when investment opportunities are presented.
Respectfully
Professional and reliable! The entire staff was a pleasure to work with; they hung in there on a difficult and long short-sale transaction and completed as they had promised they would! I know many investors that would have bailed out but these guys stayed the course and did what was required to close the sale and help save my Seller's credit from a pending foreclosure, Thank you! Hope we can work together again!
I been fortunate enough to work with USP on several deals, and they were a pleasure to deal with on both the buying an selling side of the deal. The entire staff is professional, prompt to respond to all requests, and they have never bailed on a deal, or attempted to switch a cash offer to a financed deal last minute.
