Kirkwood, Missouri
Sell your home and stay in Kirkwood.
Kirkwood pairs a walkable, train-stop downtown with some of the region’s most characterful older homes — early-1900s frame houses, mid-century ranches, and everything between. People here tend to stay put for the schools and the sense of place.
Mainstay buys Kirkwood homes for 80–95% of their value, pays off your mortgage, and leases the home right back to you — so you unlock your equity without leaving your home, your schools, or your neighbors. We serve all of St. Louis County.

Your number, backed by Kirkwood comps
Your estimate isn’t a number we made up. We use genuine recent sales from across the Kirkwood School District, so your number reflects what buyers are really paying near you — historic charm and all. It’s a sale plus a lease — not a loan, mortgage, or refinance — and the price is set transparently, with no negotiation games.
