How it works
From first call to funded closing, in three steps
No listing agreement. No lockbox. No strangers walking through your house on a Sunday afternoon. Here is precisely what happens after you reach out, and what we need from you at each stage.
Tell us about your house
Share the address and a little about the property, online in about 60 seconds or on the phone with a local specialist. No listing agreement, no lockbox, no yard sign.
Get a fair, all-cash offer
We research comparable Houston-area sales, walk the property when it helps, and present a written cash offer, typically within 24 to 48 hours. There is no obligation to accept it.
Close on your schedule
Pick the closing date that suits you. We can close in as little as 7 to 14 days through a local title company, or hold off for weeks if you need time to move.
Step 1 detail
What we ask you for
You do not need repair estimates, an inspection report, a survey or a title search. We handle that side.
- The property address and, roughly, the condition it's in
- Whether anyone is living there: you, a family member or a tenant
- Anything on title you already know about: a lien, back taxes, an open probate case
- How soon you'd like to close, and whether you need time after closing to move
Step 2 detail
How we build the number
We are glad to walk you through the arithmetic. An offer you don't understand is one you shouldn't accept.
- Recent sales of comparable homes in your immediate area, not a county-wide average
- The condition of your specific house and what it realistically needs
- Current costs to carry, renovate and resell a property in that submarket
- Any title work, liens or past-due amounts that have to be cleared at closing
Step 3 detail
What closing looks like
Payoffs, liens and past-due property taxes are settled out of the proceeds at closing. You do not need to bring money to the table.
- We open title with a licensed Texas title company, usually within a day of your acceptance
- Title runs a search; anything that surfaces gets resolved before closing
- You sign at the title company, or by mobile notary if you've already left the area
- Funds are wired or issued the same day, and you receive a standard closing statement
Timeline
How long each stage actually takes
| Stage | Typical timing | What you do |
|---|---|---|
| First conversation | Same day | Answer a few questions about the property |
| Property walk-through | Within 1–2 days | Let us in. No cleaning or staging needed |
| Written cash offer | 24–48 hours | Review it, compare it, ask questions |
| Title opened | 1 day after acceptance | Nothing |
| Title search & clearing | 5–10 days | Sign anything title requests |
| Closing & funding | Day 7–14 | Sign and get paid |
Timelines vary with title condition, probate status and lender payoffs. If you need longer, we can schedule closing weeks out instead.
Questions
About the process
How long does it take to get a cash offer on my Houston house?
Every situation is unique, but you can have a cash offer in as little as 24 to 48 hours after we speak with you and see the property.
What if my house needs repairs?
We purchase as-is. There is no need to make repairs, clean out the house, or bring anything up to code. Roof, foundation, plumbing, fire or flood damage. We price all of it into the offer instead of asking you to fix it.
How fast can you close?
It depends on your situation, but we can typically close within 7 to 14 days through a local title company. If you need longer to find your next place, we can schedule closing for whenever works.
I'm behind on my mortgage. Do I need to make another payment?
No. We regularly purchase homes that are behind in payments or facing foreclosure. Past-due amounts are normally settled out of the sale proceeds at closing.
