How to Sell Your Home Fast for Cash in Houston

Getting cash for your Houston home takes four simple steps.

Step 1: Tell Us About Your Home

Call us or fill out our website form. We’ll ask basic questions. Where’s your house? What condition is it in? Why do you need to sell for cash?

This conversation takes about 5 minutes. No sales pitch.

Step 2: We Visit Your Houston Property

We’ll schedule a quick walkthrough of your home. Don’t clean up. Don’t fix anything. We’re looking at the property, not judging your housekeeping.

Can’t meet in person? Send photos and we’ll work from those.

Step 3: Get Your Cash Offer in Writing

Within 24-48 hours after seeing your home, you’ll get a written cash offer. A real number you can accept or reject. Not a “maybe” or “we’ll think about it.”

Step 4: Pick Your Closing Date and Get Cash

Accept our offer and choose when you want to close. Need cash next week? We can do that. Want 30 or 60 days? That works too.

On closing day, you sign the paperwork. We give you cash. Done.

Why Houston Homeowners Sell for Cash

Let’s talk about real situations where cash sales make sense.

You’re Behind on Mortgage Payments

Facing foreclosure? Need to avoid it hitting your credit? A fast cash sale pays off your mortgage and gets you out before foreclosure happens.

We’ve helped hundreds of Houston homeowners avoid foreclosure. The cash from the sale covers what you owe, and you walk away clean.

You Inherited a House You Don’t Want

Got a property from a family member who died? Maybe it’s got problems. Maybe it’s across town. Maybe three siblings all just want their share of the cash.

We buy inherited Houston homes for cash and close fast so you can settle the estate and move on.

You’re Going Through a Divorce

Splitting up is hard. Fighting over a house makes it worse. A fast cash sale gives both people their share so everyone can move forward.

You Got Transferred for Work

Starting a new job in Dallas, Austin, or another state next month? Traditional sales take 60-90 days. That doesn’t work when you need to relocate fast.

We can close before your start date so you’re not paying two mortgages.

Your House Has Expensive Problems

Foundation cracks from Houston’s clay soil? Roof damage from a storm? Flood damage from a hurricane? Fixing everything could cost $40,000 or more.

We buy Houston homes as-is for cash. You don’t fix anything. We handle all repairs after we buy.

You’re Done Being a Landlord

Tired of tenant drama? Done with late-night maintenance calls? Fed up with people who trash your property?

We buy rental properties for cash, even with tenants still living there. You get out, we take over.

You Need Cash for Medical Bills

Healthcare costs can destroy your savings fast. Sometimes you just need cash quickly to handle an emergency.

We close fast and get you the cash you need to deal with life’s problems.

What Makes Our Cash Offers Fair

Some buyers lowball everyone. We don’t. Here’s how we calculate fair cash offers.

We Look at Real Market Values

We check what similar homes in your Houston neighborhood actually sold for recently. Not listing prices. Actual closed sales. Size, age, condition, and location all matter.

We Estimate Repair Costs Honestly

If your house needs work, we figure out what repairs will cost. Foundation repair in Houston can run $5,000 to $30,000. New roof? $8,000 to $15,000. Kitchen update? $15,000 to $40,000.

We’re realistic because we’re the ones paying for repairs.

We Factor in Our Holding Costs

While we fix your house, we’re paying property taxes, insurance, utilities, and HOA fees. In Houston, that costs $1,500 to $3,000 per month.

We Include a Fair Profit

We’re running a business. We need to make money when we resell. But we’re not trying to rip you off.

The result? A fair cash offer that works for both of us.

Cash Sale vs. Traditional Sale – The Real Math

People always ask: “Am I leaving money on the table?”

Sometimes yes. Sometimes no. Let’s look at actual numbers on a $300,000 Houston house.

Traditional Sale with an Agent:

• Sale price: $300,000 (if everything goes well)
• Agent commission (6%): -$18,000
• Closing costs (2-3%): -$6,000 to $9,000
• Repairs: -$15,000 to $30,000
• Staging: -$2,000
• Time on market: 60-90 days
• Mortgage payments during sale: -$3,000 to $4,500
• Property taxes: -$600 to $900
• Insurance: -$300 to $450
• Utilities: -$300 to $450
• Risk of falling through: 30%
• Net to you: $245,000-$255,000 (maybe in 3 months)

Cash Sale to Hero Homebuyers:

• Our cash offer: $255,000
• Commission: $0
• Closing costs: $0
• Repairs: $0
• Staging: $0
• Time to close: 7-14 days
• Holding costs: $0
• Risk: 0%
• Net to you: $255,000 cash (guaranteed in 2 weeks)

See how it works? Sometimes you net the same or more with cash, especially if your house needs work.

Watch Out for These Cash Buyer Red Flags

Not everyone who says “we buy homes for cash” is honest. Here’s what to watch for.

Extremely Low Cash Offers

If someone offers 30-40% of your home’s value without explaining why, walk away. Even houses needing major work are worth more.

No Proof They Have Cash

Anyone can say they’ll pay cash. Ask to see proof of funds. Bank statements. A letter from their bank. Something showing the cash exists.

If they can’t prove it, they probably don’t have it.

Pressure to Sign Right Now

Legitimate cash buyers give you time to think, read the contract, and talk to family or an attorney. If someone pushes you to sign immediately, that’s a problem.

Contracts with Assignment Clauses

This language lets them sell your contract to someone else. You’re not selling to them. You’re selling to whoever they find later.

We don’t use assignment clauses. When we make a cash offer, we’re the buyer who closes.

Not Licensed in Texas

Ask if they’re licensed by the Texas Real Estate Commission. Not everyone buying homes for cash has proper credentials.

We’re licensed Texas real estate professionals. You can verify our license with TREC.

What You Get with Our Cash Home Sales

Let’s be clear about what’s included.

No repairs required. Foundation problems, roof damage, outdated kitchens. Don’t fix anything. We buy as-is for cash.

No cleaning needed. Leave your house however it is. We’ll clean after closing.

No showings. We visit once. That’s it. No parade of strangers walking through every weekend.

No agent fees. Zero commission. No 6% going to real estate agents.

No closing costs. We pay all title fees, transfer fees, and closing costs.

Fast cash. Most people get cash via wire transfer the same day we close.

Flexible timeline. Close in 7 days or 60 days. You pick.

Common Questions About Selling for Cash in Houston

How much cash will you offer for my Houston home?

We can’t give you a number without seeing your property. Our cash offers typically range from 60-85% of fair market value, depending on condition and repairs needed. We’ll explain exactly how we got to that number. No obligation to accept.

Can I really get cash in 7 days?

Yes, if that’s what you need. We can close and get you cash in as little as 7 days. Most people prefer 2-3 weeks to make moving arrangements. Some want 30-60 days. You decide.

What if my house has serious problems?

That’s what we do. Foundation cracks, roof damage, fire damage, flood damage, Hurricane Harvey damage, mold, code violations. We buy Houston homes in any condition for cash. The problems affect our cash offer, but they don’t stop us from buying.

Do I have to clean out my house?

Nope. Take what you want, leave the rest. Old furniture, junk in the garage, stuff in the attic. We’ll handle removal after closing. Many people just take personal items and leave everything else.

What if I owe more than my house is worth?

This is called being underwater. It’s tricky, but sometimes we can help. If you’re close to breaking even, we might work with your bank on a short sale. Call us and let’s look at your numbers.

Will you lower your cash offer after seeing my house?

The cash offer we give you in writing is what you get at closing. We don’t renegotiate. Once we inspect your property and make a cash offer, that’s final. The only exception would be if you hid major problems.

How do I know you’re not a scam?

Smart question. Here’s how to verify:

• Check our license with Texas Real Estate Commission
• Read our Google and Facebook reviews
• Ask for references from Houston homeowners we’ve bought from
• Request proof of funds showing we have the cash
• Have your attorney review our contract

We welcome your due diligence.
