Delivering an Authentic Home Selling Experience


At ILM Home Offer, our mission is to help North Carolina homeowners avoid foreclosure, navigate probate challenges, or sell their house today without incurring any costs or fees. As established cash home buyers, we purchase properties quickly throughout Wilmington and surrounding areas!

We are a family-owned cash for home buyers company that has been operating in the greater Wilmington area for nearly a decade. Our founder, Michael Ruark, has deep roots in real estate and construction, growing up in a family of home builders before moving to Wilmington to attend UNCW. After graduating from the Cameron School of Business with a focus in Management, Michael left briefly but was eventually drawn back to the Port City, where he now lives with his wife and daughter.

When not helping homeowners find solutions, he enjoys everything our coastal region offers – from surfing the local beaches and exploring the outdoors to enjoying live music around town and spending quality time with family and friends.



We make the process of selling your house transparent and fair. Selling your house should be a win-win situation for both you and us. Sell your house on your terms.

ILM Home Offer - DBA certificate

We are registered and fully compliant with the state of North Carolina. We’d love to work with you and help you out. We can even point you in the right direction if we are not the best fit.

Michael founded ILM Home Offer while juggling a full-time job at an internet company during the day and working nights at a restaurant. He started by purchasing the occasional fixer-upper, and as the business grew, he gradually stepped back from his other jobs. Eventually, he began managing multiple projects at once and transitioned into real estate full-time. Since then, ILM Home Offer has consistently helped homeowners across North Carolina sell their houses quickly—especially when traditional listing methods aren’t the right fit.

Whether you’re dealing with foreclosure, a sudden move, an inherited property, probate challenges, bad tenants, or major repairs, we’ve seen it all. As experienced cash home buyers in North Carolina, we take pride in helping homeowners through tough situations while revitalizing homes in our local communities.
