What to Have Ready (and What You Don't Need)
You can call knowing nothing but the address. Still, the first conversation gets more precise if you have these handy:
- The property address and roughly how long you've owned it.
- Whether anyone lives there: you, a tenant, or nobody.
- A rough sense of what it needs. "The roof leaks and the kitchen is original" is plenty of detail.
- Whether there's a mortgage, and a ballpark of what's owed. Exact figures come from your lender later.
- Anything unusual: back taxes, liens, an estate, a divorce, a foreclosure date, a tenant who stopped paying.
- Your timeline, even if it's "I don't know yet."
You do not need a survey, an inspection report, a title policy, photographs, repair estimates, or a cleaned-out house. If you have records of past foundation work or a recent roof, mention them. They genuinely raise our number.
What Happens After You Reach Out, Hour by Hour
No mystery and no drip campaign:
- Within a few hours (same day, always): we call or text. If you'd rather have email only, say so and we'll respect it.
- That first call, about five minutes: the questions above. At the end, we'll give you a rough price range. We'll also tell you honestly if we think listing serves you better.
- Within a day or two: a walkthrough at a time that works for you, 20 to 40 minutes. You don't have to be present.
- Usually within 24 hours of the walkthrough: a written offer with comp addresses and a repair breakdown included.
- Then nothing, until you get back to us. We'll check in once. If the answer is no, that's the end of it. You won't get mailers from us for the next three years.

Around the metro, we buy in Round Rock, Pflugerville, Cedar Park, Georgetown, Leander, Hutto, Kyle, Buda, and San Marcos.
Not sure whether you're in our area? Call and ask. If you're outside it, we'll tell you right away instead of scheduling something we can't follow through on.
Free Resources That Aren't Us
Depending on your situation, one of these may serve you better than any buyer. All of them are free:
- Behind on your mortgage: a HUD-approved housing counselor offers free foreclosure counseling with no financial stake in your decision. The CFPB explains what your servicer must do.
- Legal questions: TexasLawHelp.org offers free legal information and forms for Texans. The Texas State Law Library publishes plain-language guides on probate, foreclosure, divorce, and landlord-tenant law.
- Property taxes and exemptions: the Texas Comptroller's exemption guide, plus your county appraisal district: Travis, Williamson, or Hays.
- Housing assistance: the Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs, and 2-1-1 Texas for local help.
- Suspect a scam: report it to the Texas Attorney General.
We are not affiliated with any of these agencies. We link them because a seller who knows their options makes a better decision, even when that decision isn't us.
How We Handle Your Information
Fair question, since you're about to tell a stranger about your finances and your house.
We use what you give us to research the property and prepare an offer. We do not sell, rent, or trade your contact information to lead brokers, other investors, or marketing lists. Many sites that look like ours do exactly that. If you've noticed a flood of calls and postcards after filling out a form somewhere, that's why. It isn't how we operate. Our full privacy policy spells this out.
If you'd rather not fill out a form at all, call. If you'd rather not talk on the phone, email and say so, and we'll keep everything in writing. Sellers dealing with a divorce, an estate, or a foreclosure often want a written record of every message. That's a completely reasonable preference, and we're glad to honor it.
And if you decide not to sell, tell us and we'll close the file. One follow-up call at most, then nothing. Nobody should have to opt out of a company they contacted once.
Who You'll Be Talking To
Not a call center. Not an appointment setter working from a script. Not a lead-generation company that sells your information to three investors who then race to call you first.
When you reach out, you're talking to the person who will walk your property and write the offer. That matters in practice. They can answer price questions on the first call instead of scheduling a specialist. They can tell you right away if your house isn't a fit. They also have the authority to adjust a number when you point out something we got wrong. Sellers who've dealt with the national franchises usually notice the difference within about two minutes.
It also means we're limited in how many houses we can buy at once, and that's deliberate. A buyer who takes on more properties than they can renovate well ends up cutting corners or backing out of contracts. We'd rather buy fewer houses and close every one we agree to.
Common Reasons People Hesitate to Call
A few things we hear, and honest responses:
"The house is embarrassing." It isn't to us. We've walked through houses with paths between stacks, ceilings on the floor, and years of accumulated everything. We're pricing a renovation budget, not judging your life. Nobody on our team has ever judged a seller. If they did, they'd be looking for other work.
"I'm not sure I actually want to sell." Then don't. Get the number anyway. It costs nothing, and it's useful information for whatever you decide, including deciding to stay. Plenty of people call us to find out where they stand and end up keeping the house with better information.
"I don't want to be pressured." Fair, given how this industry markets itself. Our approach is one call, one walkthrough, one written offer, one follow-up. If you say no, that's the end.
"I think the number will be insulting." Then check it. Every offer comes with the comparable sale addresses and the repair math. We also encourage you to ask an agent what you'd keep after repairs, commission, and carrying costs. A number that survives that comparison is a real number. Ours is written to survive it.
Selling a House You Don't Live In
Many of the properties we buy are not the seller's home. Each version has its own wrinkle worth mentioning before you call.
A vacant house. Empty properties cost money quietly. Taxes keep running. Insurance often costs more, or lapses entirely after 30 to 60 days of vacancy. Slow damage builds up with nobody there to catch it. If yours has been sitting, tell us how long and whether the utilities are on. We can walk it with a lockbox code, and you never have to make the trip.
A rental. Tenants stay, the lease transfers, and deposits move at closing. You don't need to give notice, coordinate showings, or wait for a lease to end. Bring the lease and a rough rent figure to the first call.
An inherited property. Get the offer even while probate is pending. Knowing the number often helps a family decide. Finding out costs nothing and commits you to nothing.
A property you own with someone else. Siblings, an ex-spouse, a former business partner. Everyone with an interest generally has to sign. So the useful first step is telling us who's on title. We'd rather get all parties on one call early than find a disagreement the week of closing.
If You're in a Hurry, Read This First
Some deadlines are real: a foreclosure date, a closing on your next house, a court order. When that's your situation, the order of steps matters more than usual.
Call rather than emailing. A five-minute conversation moves faster than a day of messages. If the timeline is truly tight, we can often walk the property the same day.
Tell us the deadline right away, and tell us the real one. We plan title work backward from your date. A title company needs lead time to order payoffs and clear liens. Finding an unreleased lien on day two is manageable. Finding it on day nine is not.
Have your lender's name ready if there's a mortgage. The title company needs it early to request the payoff statement. That statement is the single most common source of delay.
Know that seven days is possible but not automatic. With clean title, one owner, and no complications, we can close in a week. Heirship issues, judgment liens, or a pending tax suit add time no buyer can compress. We'll tell you what's realistic on the first call rather than promising a date we can't hold.
How we work
You Found Us. We Didn't Chase You.
Our whole sales process is no-pressure by design: you get a written offer with the math attached, it stays open while you think, and there's no obligation at any point. One follow-up call, then we leave you alone.
We also don't do outbound marketing — none of it. No bandit signs stapled to utility poles, no cold calls interrupting your dinner, no stream of letters filling your mailbox asking to buy your house. If you've been getting those, they aren't from us. We put our effort into being easy to find in search results, plus a few Google ads, so we're here at the moment you decide it's time — and invisible until then.
