Most of the homeowners we work with are not in a normal sale. They are in a deadline, an estate, or a house that will not pass a bank inspection. That is the whole reason we exist.
A sale date is scheduled, or you are behind and the notices have started. We can often close before the auction so the equity goes to you instead of the courthouse steps.
You inherited a house you do not want to maintain, insure, or split three ways. We work with executors, administrators, and heirs, and we can wait on the court timeline.
Back taxes, a tax lien, or a pending tax sale. Unpaid taxes come out of the closing proceeds, so you are not writing a check to sell.
Foundation, roof, fire damage, mold, an open code violation. We buy as-is. You do not clean it out, fix it, or stage it.
Non-paying tenants, an eviction in progress, or a rental you are done managing. We buy occupied properties and handle the tenant situation ourselves.
You need a certain date and a clean split, not a listing that sits for ninety days with showings and a financing contingency.
No listing, no showings, no repairs, no commissions. Here is the entire process.
Message us in the chat or call. We ask a few questions about the house, the title situation, and your timeline. Nothing invasive, and nothing is public.
We walk the property or review photos, run comparable sales and a repair estimate, then give you a real number in writing, usually within 24 hours.
If the number works, we close at a licensed title company on a date you choose. If it does not work, you owe us nothing and we part as friends.
Some buyers are vague about this. We are not. Every property we put under contract goes down one of three roads, and we tell you which one before you sign anything.
We assign the purchase agreement to another investor in our buyer network who is a better fit for the property. You still close at the price and date written in your contract. We disclose this up front, in writing.
We fund the renovation ourselves, bring the house back to retail condition, and resell it. Bad roofs, dated kitchens, and deferred maintenance are the point, not a problem.
Some houses we repair and hold as long-term rentals in the neighborhoods we believe in. That is why we are still here after the deal closes.
Yes. Requesting an offer costs nothing and commits you to nothing. You can walk away at any point before you sign a purchase agreement.
No. Take what you want and leave the rest. We buy as-is, including the contents you do not want to move.
If you give us your mobile number and consent, we may text you about your property and your offer. Message frequency varies. You will typically receive no more than 8 messages per month. Message and data rates may apply. Reply STOP to any message and we stop immediately, or reply HELP for help. Full details are on our SMS Terms page.
Call us anyway. In Texas the foreclosure timeline moves fast, but there is usually still room to close before the sale date. It is not too late until it is too late.
No. We are investors buying with our own funds and our buyer network. We do not list your property, we do not represent you, and we do not charge a commission. We also do not give legal or tax advice, so keep your own attorney or CPA in the loop.
Recent comparable sales near the property, the repairs the house needs to reach that condition, holding and closing costs, and a margin. We will walk you through the math if you want to see it.
One conversation, no pressure, no obligation. Call or text (832) 307-1066, or send us the address and we will do the work.
