Need To Sell A House In Houston?

Whether you live in it, rent it out, it sits empty, or it is not fit to live in — we buy houses in any condition and in almost any situation. Most people who call us have never sold a house this way before, and that is a normal place to start. If a foreclosure date is coming up, start there instead.

Three simple steps

How It Works

1

Tell Us About The House

Fill in the short form or call 713-588-5152. We only need the address, the rough condition, and what is going on.

2

Get Your Cash Offer

We look at what comparable houses nearby have actually sold for, work out what yours needs, and put a fair cash offer in writing. No fee, no obligation.

3

Choose Your Closing Date

If the number works for you, we close at a local title company on the date you pick and you get paid by wire or check.

Why sell to us

What You Will Not Be Dealing With

Sell As-Is

No repairs, no cleaning, no hauling anything away. Leave what you do not want.

No Fees Or Commissions

No agent in the middle, so nothing comes off the top of your price.

No Showings

One walkthrough instead of open houses every weekend for months.

Simple Paperwork

A short, plain contract you can read through in one sitting.

Tenants Are Fine

Occupied, vacant, or mid-eviction — it is still a house we can buy.

Close On Your Schedule

Quickly if you need it, or months out if that suits you better.

Side by side

How Do We Compare To A Traditional Sale?

Both routes are legitimate. Which one wins depends on the condition of the house and how much time you have — we go through this in more detail on the agent vs. cash offer page.

 Listing with an agentSelling to us
Time to closeOften 3+ months: about two months on market lately*, plus escrow — longer if the house needs workThe date you choose
Repairs & cleaningDone before listing, at your costNone — sold as it stands
Commissions & feesTexas sellers average 5.88% in commission plus about 3.26% in closing costs*You pay nothing

Risk of falling throughBuyer financing can failNo buyer mortgage contingency

*Texas averages from 2026 commission and closing-cost surveys; Houston market time from HAR's 2026 monthly reports (roughly 50–67 days). Every sale is different — treat these as typical, not promised.

How We Work Out Your Offer

The most common complaint about cash buyers is the lowball, and it stings because the math is usually hidden. Here is ours — not a formula on a screen, but the four things that decide the number, and an open offer to walk you through all of them on your actual house.

What it would sell for repaired

What comparable houses near you have actually closed at once they are in good order — not asking prices, and not an online estimate.

What the house needs spent on it

Roof, foundation, kitchen, bath, whatever it is. This is usually the biggest number and the one sellers are most often surprised by.

The cost of buying, holding and reselling

Closing costs on both ends, taxes, insurance and utilities for every month the house is being worked on, and the commission when it sells again.

The margin we work on

We are not going to pretend this is zero. A cash offer comes in below retail, and that gap is what pays for the work, the risk and the time.

The honest part: if your house is in good shape and you can wait four to six months, listing it with an agent will usually net you more, even after commission. A cash sale buys certainty and speed instead. When we look at your house we will tell you which side of that line it falls on — including when the answer is that you should list it.

Ask Us To Work Out Your Number

Before you sign with anyone

Questions Worth Asking Any Cash Buyer

Consumer guides tell sellers to ask these. Most companies wait to be asked — here are our answers up front, so you can hold us to them or take the list somewhere else and use it.

“Can you show proof you can close?”

Ask any buyer to show proof they can close — and ask us the same. Then verify it yourself: call the institution on a number you look up, not one the buyer gives you. A screenshot is not proof.

“Who exactly is buying it?”

Ask for it in writing, and read the buyer’s name on the contract before you sign. Whoever you are talking to should tell you plainly and put it on paper.

“Can the price drop after I sign?”

Only if something material turns up that was not disclosed — a lien, a title problem, damage nobody could see. If we ever need to revisit the number for any other reason, you are free to walk away with no fee and no penalty.

“How long do I have to decide?”

As long as you like. Our offer does not expire at midnight. Take it to an agent or an attorney first — pressure to sign fast is the clearest warning sign there is.

Straight answers

Frequently Asked Questions

A few of the ones we hear most. There are more on the full FAQ page.

How quickly can you close?

The closing date is yours to pick. When a seller needs speed we can usually complete inside three weeks, because there is no mortgage lender in the chain to wait on. If you need longer to arrange your next move, we will work to that instead.

Do I have to make any repairs or clean up first?

No. We buy the house in the condition it is in on the day we walk it. Leave the repairs, the cleaning, and anything in the garage you do not want to move.

Will I get less than the house is worth on the open market?

Usually yes, and it is fair to say so plainly. A cash, as-is purchase trades some of the headline price for speed, certainty and paying nothing yourself. What you save is the agent commission, the repair bill, the holding costs while it sits, and the risk of a buyer's loan falling through. On a house that needs little and can wait six months, listing it will usually beat our offer, and we will tell you so.

Is there any cost to get an offer?

No. There is no fee for the offer, no listing agreement to sign, and no obligation to accept. If the number does not suit you, that is the end of it.

Can you buy a house that still has tenants in it?

Yes. Occupied, vacant, or somewhere in between. You do not need to end a tenancy or finish an eviction before talking to us.

What areas around Houston do you buy in?

Houston itself and the surrounding counties, including Harris, Fort Bend, Montgomery, Galveston, Brazoria and Waller. If you are unsure whether your address is in range, call and ask, because it usually is.

No cost, no obligation

What Do You Have To Lose?

Tell us the address and a little about the property. There is no fee, no listing agreement, and no obligation to accept anything we put in front of you. If the answer is “list it instead”, we will say so.
