Frequently Asked Questions.
What kinds of properties does Texas Investment Buyers purchase?
At Texas Investment Buyers, we purchase a wide range of property types — from single-family homes, condos, townhomes, duplexes, and multi-unit residential properties to commercial buildings and land. We buy properties in any condition, whether they’re move-in ready or need significant repairs. There’s no requirement to fix or stage anything before we buy.
Is there any obligation when I submit my contact information and property information?
No — there is absolutely no obligation when you submit your information to Texas Investment Buyers. Requesting a cash offer is 100% free, confidential, and comes with no pressure to sell. We simply review your property details and provide a fair, no-obligation cash offer for your residential or commercial property in Texas. You are never required to accept the offer, sign anything, or pay any fees.
How do I get a cash offer from Texas Investment Buyers?
It’s simple and free! Just fill out our online form or call us with your property details. We’ll assess the information and schedule a walkthrough (or virtual visit). After evaluating the property, we’ll present you with a no-obligation cash offer tailored to your property and goals
Is there any cost, fee, or obligation when I request an offer?
No — absolutely not. There are no fees, no commissions, and no obligation when you request a cash offer from Texas Investment Buyers. You decide if the offer works for you, and if you choose not to accept, there’s no pressure or cost.
Do I have to make repairs or clean up the property before selling?
Nope! We buy properties “as-is”, which means you don’t have to invest in repairs, updates, or cleaning. You can even leave behind unwanted items — we handle the cleanup after closing. This makes selling easier and faster for sellers in any situation.
How do you calculate the offer price?
Our offers are based on multiple factors: the current condition of your property, market value in your area, repair or renovation costs, and recent comparable sales. We aim to make a fair and transparent offer that reflects the value of your property and the investment we’ll make.
How quickly can Texas Investment Buyers close on a property?
We are flexible to your timeline. Once you accept our offer, closings can happen in as little as 7–14 days, but if you need more time — such as 30, 60, or more days — we can adjust. We work around your schedule to make the sale convenient for you.
What happens after I accept the offer?
After you accept, we coordinate with a trusted title company to finalize the paperwork. Closing is scheduled at your convenience, and on that day you’ll receive your cash funds. We handle most of the details so the process is smooth and stress-free.
Will I still pay closing costs?
No. When you sell to Texas Investment Buyers, we typically cover most or all standard closing costs — another way you save money compared to traditional market sales where sellers are often responsible for such costs.
Can I sell even if I’m behind on payments, in foreclosure, or dealing with an inherited property?
Yes. We specialize in helping sellers in a variety of situations, including financial distress, foreclosure, inherited properties, relocating, downsizing, or simply wanting to avoid the hassles of the traditional market. If you own it, we can make an offer.
How does selling to Texas Investment Buyers compare to selling with a real estate agent?
Selling with an agent typically involves repairs, showings, open houses, appraisal and financing contingencies, and agent commissions — which can reduce your net proceeds. When selling to Texas Investment Buyers, you avoid all of that: no showings, no repairs, no commissions, faster closings, and more certainty with a cash offer.
Will you buy tenant-occupied or rental properties in Texas?
Yes. Texas Investment Buyers purchases tenant-occupied properties, rental homes, and income-producing properties throughout Texas. Whether your property has long-term tenants, month-to-month leases, or inherited occupants, we can evaluate the situation and make a cash offer. Many landlords choose to sell rental properties to us to avoid ongoing maintenance, management headaches, or tenant turnover — all without requiring vacancies or evictions.
Do you buy commercial properties in Texas as well as residential homes?
Absolutely. Texas Investment Buyers is not limited to residential real estate. We purchase commercial properties in Texas, including office buildings, retail spaces, warehouses, mixed-use properties, and multi-unit investments. Whether you’re looking to liquidate an underperforming asset or sell a commercial property quickly for cash, our team can evaluate and provide a competitive offer.
What if my property has liens, title issues, or legal complications?
If your Texas property has liens, back taxes, title challenges, or probate issues, we can often still help. Our team works closely with experienced Texas title companies to resolve complications whenever possible. Many homeowners searching for “sell house with liens in Texas” are surprised to learn they still have options. Every situation is unique, and we review each property case-by-case to provide solutions.
Do you buy properties “subject to” an existing mortgage, and how does it work?
Yes. Texas Investment Buyers does buy properties subject to the existing mortgage in certain situations. A subject-to purchase means we buy the property while the current loan stays in place, and we agree to make the payments moving forward as outlined in the contract.
This option can help Texas homeowners who need to sell fast, avoid foreclosure, or relocate without paying off the loan at closing. Each subject-to transaction is fully disclosed, carefully structured, and reviewed so you understand how it works before moving forward.
Is selling to a cash home buyer in Texas legitimate and safe?
Yes — working with reputable cash home buyers in Texas like Texas Investment Buyers is a legitimate way to sell property. We use licensed Texas title companies to ensure all paperwork, escrow, and fund transfers are handled professionally and securely. You’ll review all documents before closing, and you receive certified funds upon completion of the sale. Transparency and professionalism are core to how we operate.
Why do homeowners choose Texas Investment Buyers over other “We Buy Houses” companies in Texas?
Homeowners choose Texas Investment Buyers because we offer a local, transparent, and flexible selling process. Unlike some large national companies, we evaluate each residential and commercial property individually and tailor offers to fit your situation. We focus on clear communication, fast closings, no hidden fees, and solutions that work for sellers who need to sell fast in Texas. Whether you’re downsizing, relocating, managing an inherited property, or selling a commercial asset, we aim to make the process straightforward and stress-free.
What’s the difference between Texas Investment Buyers and iBuyers or Wholesale Companies?
Texas Investment Buyers takes a hands-on, personalized approach to valuing properties, unlike many iBuyers and wholesale companies that rely heavily on automated algorithms to calculate home values. iBuyers typically use computer models that analyze large amounts of market data, which can overlook a property’s true condition, unique features, or specific challenges — especially with distressed, commercial, or non-standard properties.
At Texas Investment Buyers, we personally evaluate each residential and commercial property, factoring in condition, repair needs, location, market trends, and your selling goals. We buy properties directly, meaning you receive a straightforward cash offer, not a contract that may be reassigned or renegotiated later. This results in more transparency, fewer surprises, and a smoother closing process for Texas property owners.
How can I avoid dealing with Wholesalers/ Real Estate Scammers?
Protecting yourself from wholesalers and real estate scams starts with knowing the key differences between legitimate cash buyers like Texas Investment Buyers and untrustworthy operators. Wholesalers/ Scammers NEVER operate with the seller’s best interests at heart and use tactics that can complicate or stall your sale or even scam sellers out of their properties.
Here are important warning signs to watch for when evaluating any cash offer:
Standard TREC Contracts vs Custom Contracts — Legitimate buyers use a Texas Real Estate Commission (TREC) contract, which protects both parties and gives sellers clear legal rights. Wholesalers frequently avoid TREC forms and instead present their own contract templates that may obscure their intentions and limit your protections.
Length of Inspection and Closing Periods — Real buyers typically need 10 days or less for inspections, especially if they are paying in cash. Wholesalers may request extended inspection or option periods, not because they need time to evaluate the property, but so they can shop the contract to other investors or buyers like myself.
Earnest Money Deposit Amount — In a legitimate Texas real estate purchase, earnest money is typically around 1% (or more) of the purchase price and is deposited with a title company shortly after contract execution. Wholesalers often offer very low earnest money amounts and may fail to deposit those funds on time (within 3 days of the contract’s effective date), which is required for proper escrow handling.
Title, Escrow & Disclosures — Always confirm that earnest money and any option fees are deposited properly with a licensed title company. Wholesalers and scammers sometimes try to delay or avoid this step. Red flags also include unverifiable buyer contact info or undue pressure to sign quickly without due diligence.
Marketing your property without consent: Wholesalers/ Scammers may post or advertise your property on other websites without your knowledge or consent. Make sure your contract prohibits this unless you have given written approval.
To avoid these pitfalls:
Ask about funding — legit cash buyers will show proof of funds.
Consult a real estate attorney or licensed agent before signing.
Never wire money to unknown escrow contacts or send money via Cashapp.
