Frequently Asked Questions

We can close in as little as 7 days if needed. Once you contact us, we'll schedule a quick property visit (or do a virtual assessment), present you with a fair cash offer within 24-48 hours, and close on your timeline - whether that's a week or a few months from now.

No! We buy houses in any condition - as-is. Whether your home needs minor cosmetic updates or major structural repairs, you don't need to fix anything. We handle all repairs ourselves after closing, saving you time, money, and stress.

Absolutely none. Unlike traditional real estate sales, you won't pay any realtor commissions (typically 6%), closing costs, or hidden fees. The offer we present is the exact amount you'll receive at closing. We even cover all closing costs.

Our offer is based on several factors: current market value of similar homes in your neighborhood, the property's condition, needed repairs, and current Austin market trends. We provide a fair, transparent offer with a detailed breakdown of how we arrived at the price.

We specialize in helping homeowners avoid foreclosure. Our quick closing process can help you sell before the foreclosure sale date. We'll work with your lender and can often close in time to prevent foreclosure from appearing on your credit report.

Yes! We regularly purchase homes with outstanding property tax liens. We'll handle paying off the back taxes at closing, and the amount will be factored into our offer. This allows you to move forward without the burden of tax debt.

We buy homes throughout the Greater Austin area, including Round Rock, Pflugerville, Cedar Park, Georgetown, Leander, Kyle, Buda, and all surrounding communities. If your property is in the Austin metro area, we're interested in making an offer.

No. You can leave behind anything you don't want to take with you. We'll handle all cleanout and disposal after closing. This is especially helpful for inherited properties, hoarding situations, or when you're relocating quickly and can't move everything.

We present our best offer upfront based on our thorough market analysis, but we're always open to discussion. If you have comparable sales data or information about your property that we didn't consider, we're happy to review and adjust our offer accordingly.

We're local Austin experts who truly understand the market. Unlike out-of-state investors or wholesalers who flip your contract to someone else, we're the actual buyers with our own funding. This means faster closings, better communication, and no surprises. We're also focused on building long-term relationships in our community.

Absolutely. We frequently work with divorcing couples and understand the sensitivity of these situations. We can work with both parties and their attorneys to ensure a smooth transaction that meets everyone's needs and timeline requirements.

Once you accept, we'll open escrow with a local title company, conduct a title search to ensure clear ownership, and schedule a closing date that works for you. You'll receive your cash payment at closing - typically via wire transfer or cashier's check. The entire process from accepted offer to closing usually takes 7-30 days, depending on your preference.

Our offers typically range from 70-85% of after-repair value (ARV), depending on the property's condition and needed repairs. While this may seem lower than listing price, remember you save 6% in realtor commissions, 2-3% in closing costs, plus repair costs and holding costs. Many sellers net the same or more selling to us, with far less hassle and uncertainty.

Yes! Most homes we buy still have mortgages. We work directly with your lender to get the exact payoff amount, and we handle paying off the mortgage at closing. You'll receive the difference between our purchase price and your mortgage balance (minus any other liens or agreed-upon costs).

We buy all types of residential properties: single-family homes, condos, townhomes, duplexes, and small multifamily properties (up to 4 units). Each property type is evaluated on its own merits, and we're experienced with HOA requirements and condo association processes.

We specialize in buying homes with significant issues. Foundation problems, roof damage, electrical issues, plumbing problems, mold, fire damage - we've seen and purchased it all. We have experienced contractors who can accurately assess repair costs, which allows us to make fair offers on distressed properties that traditional buyers won't touch.

Absolutely. We regularly purchase tenant-occupied properties. You don't need to evict anyone or wait for leases to expire. We'll take over the property with tenants in place, inherit the existing leases, and handle all future landlord responsibilities. This is ideal for landlords who are tired of property management.

Cash sales eliminate uncertainty, waiting, and hassle. With a realtor, you'll prepare the house, stage it, host showings, wait for qualified buyers, negotiate multiple times, deal with inspections and appraisals, and risk deals falling through (30% do). Cash sales mean no prep work, no showings, no waiting, one negotiation, and guaranteed closing. The trade-off is typically a lower price, but faster certainty and zero headaches.

Very minimal paperwork is required. We primarily need proof of ownership (deed), a government-issued ID, and mortgage payoff information if applicable. The title company will handle most of the documentation. If you've lost important documents, don't worry - we can help track them down or work with the title company to obtain replacements.

Yes! We regularly work with out-of-state sellers, especially those who've inherited Austin properties. We can conduct virtual property assessments using video calls, handle all local logistics, coordinate with the title company for remote signing, and even arrange for cleanout of the property. You may never need to visit the property in person.

There's no catch - just a trade-off. We offer below retail market value because we're taking on all the risk, time, and costs of repairs and resale. We make our profit by fixing up properties and either renting or reselling them. You're trading maximum price for maximum convenience, speed, and certainty. It's a fair exchange that works well for homeowners who value their time and peace of mind.

Not at all. Our offers are typically valid for 7 days, giving you time to think it over, consult with family or advisors, and compare other options. There's absolutely no pressure or obligation. We want you to make the decision that's best for your situation, even if that means listing with a realtor or waiting to sell later.

We have established relationships with private lenders and maintain lines of credit specifically for property acquisitions. We can provide proof of funds before closing to demonstrate our ability to purchase. Unlike retail buyers who need mortgage approval, our funding is already secured, which is why we can close so quickly.

We buy properties with code violations, unpermitted additions, zoning issues, and other legal complications. We have experience working with Austin's building department and can resolve these issues after closing. We'll factor the cost of bringing the property into compliance into our offer, but these problems won't prevent a sale.
