We Buy 502
Nyx Sherwin, Owner of We Buy 502
Hi, I’m Nyx Sherwin, a Kentucky real estate investor and the owner of We Buy 502. I started buying homes here in 2008 and founded this company in 2019.
We’re a small, family owned business located in Louisville, KY and have also called Lexington and Bowling Green home.
About We Buy 502 | Our Origin Story
In 2019, I founded the company. By then I had spent more than a decade learning title complications the hard way, building relationships with local attorneys and title companies, and working through the kinds of situations that push homeowners toward a cash buyer in the first place.
Those situations stuck with me. The family that inherited a house with four siblings and no agreement. The couple three months behind on their mortgage with an auction date circled on the calendar. The landlord who had been managing problem tenants for a decade and was finally, genuinely done.
None of those people needed a pitch. They needed someone to tell them what their options actually were and make a fair offer. That is the job.
My background in real estate goes back to 2007. I started out in property management in Bowling Green, Kentucky after graduating from Western Kentucky University (Go Tops!). That work taught me things no licensing course covers: how a rental property actually ages over ten or twenty years, what deferred maintenance does to a home’s value, and why some houses just sit on the market no matter how the sellers price them.
2008 was a great year. That’s when I bought my first property and the same year my wife Allison and I were married and have called Kentucky home ever since. In 2025, we celebrated our 17th wedding anniversary.
Throughout the years we bought and sold dozens of properties all over Kentucky and Southern Indiana.

What happens if We Buy 502 backs out?
The offer we make is a written purchase agreement. Closing goes through a licensed title company, which means both parties are accountable to the same process and the same paperwork. We have not backed out of a deal.
Will I get a fair offer?
A cash offer will typically be below what you would net listing with an agent on the open market. That is the honest answer. What you trade in price you get back in speed, certainty, and zero fees or commissions. Most people who reach out have already thought through that trade-off and decided it fits their situation.
Do I need to clean out the house or make repairs?
Leave whatever you do not want. Furniture, old appliances, whatever is still in there. We handle cleanup and any needed repairs after closing.
How long does it take to close?
Seven days on the fast end. Two to three weeks is more typical. You set the timeline.
Is there any obligation when I ask for an offer?
Walk away any time before you sign. There are no fees for requesting an offer and no pressure to accept it.
Do you buy homes outside Louisville?
We buy anywhere in Kentucky and into Southern Indiana, including New Albany and Clarksville.
