6-month trend Declining

Ultra Homebuyers™ has a strong customer experience profile. Its large review record was mostly positive, but low ratings reduced the lifetime average. In the latest 3 months, recent feedback was weaker, with a higher share of low ratings in the newest period. Its Customer Experience score of 89/100 places it above the middle of comparable cash buyers serving a single market.

Lifetime ratings. Lifetime feedback was mostly positive: 265 rated reviews averaged 4.7/5, with 238 five-star ratings and 13 one- or two-star ratings (5%). Reviews dated back to 2020. Our methodology adjusts small rating samples toward the typical company rating, then maps the adjusted rating to a score and applies a small review-depth deduction that decreases as the record grows. Volume credit grows with every rating, with an additional small adjustment that grows fastest over the first few hundred ratings and then slows. It strengthens the distance from the neutral, sample-adjusted 4.5-star signal; this record received a 0.96% adjustment to that signal. This added 0.17 score points before the depth deduction and confidence limit.

Recent ratings. Recent feedback was more mixed. Ratings averaged 4.2 across 27 reviews over 12 months, 4.2 across 14 reviews over 6 months and 3.7 across 7 reviews over 3 months, through October 31, 2026.

Rating trends. The 3-month average fell from 4.74 lifetime to 3.71 — down 1.03 stars, or 21.6%. The one-star share rose from 4.5% to 28.6%, up 24.0 percentage points. The comparison covered only 7 recent ratings, limiting confidence in a continuing trend.

Common themes. A smooth process led the feedback, appearing in 108 of 172 detailed customer reviews (63%), followed by fast closings in 69 (40%) and good communication in 62 (36%). Negative themes included concerns about misleading information in 9 (5%), pressure in 7 (4%) and a disorganized process in 6 (3%). Reviews could mention multiple themes.

Review relevance. We classified 218 of 265 reviews (82%) as relevant to the home-selling experience. Another 8 concerned business partners, 5 concerned property buyers and 1 concerned initial contacts without reported outcomes. We excluded 3 duplicate entries and 30 reviews with too little text from sentiment analysis. All 265 star ratings remained in the lifetime rating record.

Company activity · As of October 31, 2026 — our latest collection date.

Ultra Homebuyers™ has recent review activity. Its recent review volume is higher than similar companies, and its 6-month review pace is cooling, at 0.6× its lifetime average pace. We lack direct business-activity data, including purchase figures. Its Activity score of 82/100 places it around the top 15% of comparable cash buyers serving a single market.

Recent review volume. The company received more reviews than similar companies across all 3 periods. We counted 27 reviews over 12 months, 14 over 6 months and 7 over 3 months. Similar companies had median counts of 3, 1, and 0, respectively.

Recent review pace. Its 6-month review pace is cooling, at 0.6× its lifetime average pace. Its latest 3-month pace was 0.6×, compared with 0.6× over 12 months. Recent rates averaged 2.3 reviews per month over 6 months, 2.3 over 3 months and 2.3 over 12 months, versus a lifetime average of 3.7. The record contains 265 reviews dating back to 2020. This gives the recent comparisons a substantial historical basis.

Review freshness. Its latest review on file was October 24, 2026 — less than 2 weeks old as of our last data refresh. 5% of all reviews appeared within the last 6 months, and the average review age was about 2 years.

Other business activity. We have no claimed directory profile, completed enhanced screening, business interview, or reviewed purchase figure on file.

We have 5 years of documented review history. The main limit on its score was moderate website depth and transparency. We identified 6 relevant complaints, but they did not result in a deduction.

Verification. We identified Google and BBB profiles. The BBB records we reviewed list accreditation since 2020. They list an A+ rating. Its Google Business Profile was verified. Ultra Homebuyers™ has not claimed its directory profile or completed enhanced screening with our team.

Website assessment. The website was accessible when checked on September 29, 2026. The website scored 55/100 for depth and transparency. It includes team information.

Business details. We identified Nestor Soto as the company’s owner. The BBB information we reviewed names Zev Sklar as partner. BBB lists the business as an LLC. Its website identifies it as a direct buyer. BBB lists Ultra Investment Group LLC as an alternate business name. A customer describes wholesaling.

Track record. BBB lists January 1, 2012 as its business-start date, October 22, 2019 as its incorporation date, and November 17, 2020 as its profile-opening date. Reviews on file date back to November 17, 2020. Reviews appear in 53 of the 72 months covered by our records.

Complaints and red flags. We identified 6 relevant complaints. Accounts allege pressure over signing or release, reduced agreed prices and an undisclosed intermediary role. Another seller disputes cancellation after the inspection deadline. The company denies coercion. The company reports an agreement; the customer requested removal after speaking with an owner. Contracts and independent outcomes were unavailable; several accounts have limited detail. The allegations remain unverified.

Next steps if you’re considering Ultra Homebuyers™

Even with a well-supported company record, the quality of an individual offer comes down to its price, terms, and the entity responsible for closing.

  1. Get the complete offer in writing

    Confirm the purchase price, closing date, seller-paid costs, inspection or cancellation rights, and whether the contract can be assigned to another buyer.

  2. Verify who is buying your home

    Confirm the legal business name, request proof of funds, and identify the title or closing company. If the brand has multiple offices, verify which office or entity is responsible for your offer.

  3. Compare the likely net proceeds

    Request at least 2 cash offers when possible. If time allows, compare them with an estimate of what you could net from an as-is listing after fees, repairs, and carrying costs.

How we researched and scored this company

Methodology

We research each company using its website, business profiles, and third-party customer reviews. We use company sources to understand its services and terms, and distinguish those claims from independent evidence. When available, we also draw on interviews with company representatives and sellers, and relevant public records.

When there is enough evidence, we calculate an overall score out of 100 using 3 categories:

  • Customer experience (67.5%) reflects customer satisfaction, based primarily on average customer ratings and the number of reviews supporting them.
  • Recent activity (20%) reflects recent review volume, how recently the company received a review, and how its recent review pace compares with its history. Reviews are a signal of activity, not a count of completed home purchases.
  • Credibility (12.5%) considers business verification, website transparency, public engagement, and documented operating history.

Use the company or location identified on this page when interpreting the evidence. A broader company record may not describe every local office. Review history is separate from the company’s founding date.

Limited evidence can restrict what we can assess. A company may appear without a score, and a small review sample may not represent a typical seller’s experience. Scores summarize the evidence available to us; they do not predict an offer price or guarantee a sale or service quality.
