Frequently Asked Questions
Selling your house by yourself (FSBO) is entirely achievable, but it requires substantial effort and research. Here's how you can do it:
- Understand Your Market: Gain a thorough understanding of your local real estate market. Determine the current value of your home as-is. Avoid overestimating its value based solely on personal preferences, such as aesthetics.
- List on MLS: Pay a flat fee to list your property on the Multiple Listing Service (MLS), which can significantly increase your home's visibility to potential buyers.
- Effective Marketing: Learn how to market your property effectively. Utilize online platforms, social media, and traditional marketing methods to reach a wide audience.
- Negotiation Skills: Develop strong negotiation skills to ensure you get the best deal possible. Be prepared to handle tough questions and negotiations with potential buyers.
- Open Houses: Host open houses to showcase your property. Be prepared to answer questions from potential buyers and address any concerns they may have.
- Legal Knowledge: Familiarize yourself with all the laws and regulations related to real estate transactions in your area. This knowledge will help you navigate the process smoothly and avoid potential legal issues.
While selling your home without an agent means avoiding agent fees, you'll still encounter significant costs such as attorney fees, closing costs, holding costs, title insurance, escrow costs, and more for as long as you own the property.

Looking to sell your house in Plano, Texas? We buy houses for cash, regardless of their condition or v. If you want to avoid the hassles of traditional listings, we're the ideal alternative. Even if you're not in a rush but still want to skip the expenses and annoyances of listing with an agent, we're the perfect option for you.
We can close in as little as 7 days, or on whatever timeline works best for you. Since we buy with cash, there are no banks, no mortgage approvals, and no waiting. Many of our Dallas-Fort Worth sellers choose to close within 2-3 weeks, but if you need more time, we are happy to work around your schedule.
Absolutely not. We buy houses in any condition — whether your home needs minor cosmetic updates or major structural repairs. We handle all renovations after purchase. You do not need to spend a dime fixing anything before we buy your property.
None. When you sell directly to us, there are zero realtor commissions, zero closing costs, and zero hidden fees. The cash offer we give you is the amount you walk away with at closing. We cover all closing costs ourselves.
We evaluate your property based on its current condition, location, comparable recent sales in your neighborhood, and the cost of any repairs needed. Our goal is to give you a fair, honest offer that reflects the true market value of your home in its current state. We are transparent about how we arrive at every number.
We buy single-family homes, duplexes, townhomes, condos, and even vacant land across the entire Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex. It does not matter if the property is occupied, vacant, tenant-occupied, or in disrepair — we are interested.
Yes, and we specialize in helping homeowners facing foreclosure in Texas. If you have received a Notice of Default or a Notice of Substitute Trustee Sale, time is critical. We can move fast to close before the auction date and help you avoid the lasting damage foreclosure does to your credit.
We primarily serve the entire Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex, including Dallas, Fort Worth, Plano, Arlington, Frisco, McKinney, Irving, Garland, Grand Prairie, Mesquite, Denton, and all surrounding cities. If your property is anywhere in North Texas, give us a call.
Yes, we can often help in situations where you are upside down on your mortgage. Depending on your circumstances, we may be able to negotiate a short sale with your lender or find another creative solution that works for everyone. Contact us to discuss your specific situation.
We regularly buy properties with liens, tax issues, and title complications. Our team works with title companies to resolve these issues as part of the closing process. In many cases, liens are paid off directly from the sale proceeds at closing.
When you list with an agent, you typically wait 3-6 months to sell, pay 5-6% in commissions, make repairs, host showings, and deal with buyer financing falling through. When you sell to us, you get a cash offer within 24 hours, close in as little as 7 days, make no repairs, pay no commissions, and skip the uncertainty. The tradeoff is that our offer may be below full retail market value, but many sellers find the speed, certainty, and convenience are worth it.
Yes. Once we make you an offer and you accept, we do not renegotiate or back out due to financing issues — because there is no financing involved. Our offers are backed by real cash, and we close on time, every time.
Yes. Selling to a cash buyer is often the fastest and simplest way to divide a shared property during a divorce. We can work with both parties and their attorneys to ensure a smooth, quick sale so you can both move forward.
After you fill out our form or call us, one of our team members will reach out within 24 hours to learn more about your property. We may schedule a brief visit to see the home in person. After that, we present you with a no-obligation cash offer. If you accept, we handle everything from there — title, paperwork, and closing — on your timeline.
Not necessarily. We work with your schedule. In many cases, sellers stay in the home until closing day. If you need extra time after closing, we can often arrange a short leaseback so you have time to transition without stress.
