Frequently Asked Questions
Maybe you have a few questions. That’s okay; most people do. So here’s a quick collection of some of the questions people ask us… along with our answers. If you still have a question, don’t hesitate to contact us (or give us a call) and we’ll be happy to answer it for you.
Q: Who is TX Cash Home Buyers?
A: At TX Cash Home Buyers, we’re not your average real estate company. With a wide network of local partners and capital investors, we seamlessly purchase properties across Texas. Whether our partners are long-time connections or newcomers, we ensure a smooth, hassle-free process for sellers like you. Choose TX Cash Home Buyers for a streamlined selling experience and outstanding results.
Q: What information will a home buying company need from me?
A: Typically we will need to gather some basic details such as the following:
- Your timeline for selling
- Current condition of the property
- How long you’ve owned the property
- The reason for wanting to sell
This information will help us figure out how we can provide the best solution for you.
Q: What factors determine if an offer is a good fit?
A: A good offer isn’t just about the highest number—it’s about reliability, transparency, and how well it fits your needs. When evaluating offers, consider these factors:
- Reliability: Can the buyer close on time, or are there contingencies that might delay or cancel the deal?
- Transparency: Does the buyer clearly explain their process and how they arrived at the offer?
- Convenience: Does the offer include covering closing costs or saving you the time and expense of making repairs?
We focus on providing offers that are not only fair and straightforward but also highly dependable. Some buyers may offer higher numbers upfront, but those offers often come with risks like price reductions or failure to follow through. Our approach is designed to ensure a reliable transaction with minimal surprises, so you can sell your house with confidence—even in more complex situations.
Q: How do you determine the price to offer on my house?
Our process is thorough yet simple. We consider factors like location, property condition, comparable sales, and Days on Market (DOM)—which impacts holding costs like taxes, insurance and utilities. Properties with longer DOM may require a more conservative approach to ensure a sound investment.
Q: Do you pay fair prices for properties?
A: Our cash offers are based on the property’s condition, market trends, and the costs we’ll take on—like repairs, holding expenses, and reselling. We aim to provide a fair price that leaves room for us to make a profit while offering you a fast, hassle-free sale.
Many sellers value the certainty and convenience of a cash sale, which avoids agent fees, repairs, or waiting months for the right buyer. If speed and simplicity are your goals, a cash offer may be the perfect solution.
We’re also open to discussing other approaches that could better meet your needs. Our goal is always to find a win-win outcome that works for you. With no obligation, you can explore your options and make the choice that feels right.
Q: Are there any fees or commissions to work with you?
A: This is what makes us stand out from the traditional method of selling your house: There are NO fees or commissions when you sell your house to us. We’ll make you an offer, and if it’s a fit then we’ll buy your house (and we’ll often pay for the closing costs too!). No hassle. No fees. We make our money after we pay for repairs on the house (if any) and sell it for a profit (we’re taking the risks here on whether we can sell it for a profit or not, once we buy the house from you… the responsibility is ours and you walk away without the burden of the property and its payments… and often with cash in your hand).
Q: How are you able to buy houses all over Texas?
A: We have a vast network of partnerships with other investors, local cash buyers and private capital partners across Texas that help us maximize our reach. These partnerships allow us to offer fast, reliable solutions to homeowners statewide while ensuring we always have the right resources to close deals efficiently.
Q: What types of properties do you buy?
A: We are open to working with these types of properties:
- Single-Family
- Multi Family
- Condos
- Townhomes
- Mobile homes on land
- Vacant lots/land
Q: Do your offers expire?
A: Yes, our offers have a two (2)-day expiration period from the date they’re issued. You’ll receive an email, though, when it does with an option to request an updated offer. Just click on the ‘Renew Offer Now’ button in the email, and we’ll provide you with a refreshed offer. It’s important to keep in mind that home prices can fluctuate due to various factors like market activity and competition. Therefore, your renewed offer might be the same, higher, or lower than the original one. However, in some instances, we may not be able to renew an offer due to these factors.
Q. Why do I have to sign paperwork to accept an offer?
A: Signing paperwork is a standard and necessary step in real estate transactions. It formalizes our agreement to work together and allows us to move forward with the next steps, such as scheduling property visits or arranging any resources needed to close the deal.
Much like when a buyer makes an offer on a listed property, the process can’t proceed—like inspections or due diligence—without a signed agreement. This step ensures both parties are committed and protects everyone’s time and resources. Once we have the agreement in place, we’re fully committed to handling everything professionally and ensuring the process is smooth and stress-free for you.
Q: Do you visit my house before giving an offer?
A: We ensure a thorough evaluation of your property using available resources like the photos and property description you provide, as well as online data. However, we hold off on physical visits until we’ve reached an agreement with the proper paperwork in place. This approach allows us to streamline the process and allocate resources efficiently, ensuring we focus our efforts where they’re most needed.
Q: Will there be more than one visit to my property?
A: Yes, multiple visits may be required as part of our due diligence process to ensure everything moves smoothly toward closing.
- Initial Visit: After an agreement is in place, we may conduct an initial visit to take pictures, verify property details, and gather any additional information needed.
- Follow-Up Visits: Depending on the property’s specifics, follow-up visits may involve contractors, appraisers, or local partners. These visits could happen as a group or individually, depending on availability and the needs of the transaction.
We carefully coordinate these visits to work with your schedule and minimize any inconvenience. Each step is designed to ensure accuracy and keep the process straightforward and transparent.

Q: Can the price change after the visit?
A: Our goal is always to provide you with a fair and accurate offer based on the information available at the time. Since we don’t physically view the property before making an agreement, we rely on the details you provide, along with online data, to determine our initial offer.
After we conduct our property visit, if everything aligns with the information provided, the offer remains the same. However, if significant repairs, unexpected issues, or discrepancies are discovered, we may need to revisit the numbers. In such cases, we’ll communicate the reasons clearly and work with you to find a solution. If we’re unable to reach an agreement, you’re never obligated to proceed, and we’ll part ways with no hard feelings.
This is a standard part of the real estate process, whether you’re working with an investor or a traditional buyer. We believe in transparency and open communication, so if any adjustments are needed, we’ll explain the reasons and work with you to find a solution that fits your needs.
Q: How are you different from a real estate agent?
A: Real estate agents list properties and hope that someone will buy them. The agent shows the properties to prospective buyers if there are any (the average time to sell a property in many markets right now is 6-12 months) and then take a percentage of the sale price if they find a buyer. Oftentimes, the agent’s commission is 3-6% of the sale price of your house (so if it’s a $100,000 house, you’ll pay between $3,000 – $6,000 in commissions to an agent). Agents provide a great service for those that can wait 3-6 months to sell and who don’t mind giving up some of that sale price to pay for the commissions.
Q: Is there any obligation when I submit my info?
A: There is absolutely zero obligation for you. Once you tell us a bit about your property, we’ll take a look at things, maybe set up a call with you to find out a bit more, and make you an all-cash offer that’s fair for you and fair for us. From there, it’s 100% your decision on whether or not you’d like to sell your house to us… and we won’t hassle you, won’t harass you… it’s 100% your decision and we’ll let you decide what’s right for you.
