Frequently Asked Questions

Maybe you have a few questions.

It is absolutely normal to have some questions about our process. Here are some of our best hits, as it were. If after reading through the most common ones, you still have a question, please feel free to contact us or reach us via phone and we will get back to you shortly.

Q:  Will you be listing my house on the MLS or actually buying it?
A: An excellent question. We are interested in investing in your house and selling it again to another person after we have fixed it up ourselves. It is also possible we will maintain it as a rental. We buy houses in Galveston that pique our interest.

Q:  Do you pay fair prices for properties?
A: We often purchase houses at somewhat below market value. Ideally, we are buying houses at a discount so we can profit by reselling. It seems to us as though sellers are appreciative of us offering cash, closing quickly on the deal and there is no out-of-pocket cost expected for repairs or upgrades. If you are in a hurry to get your house sold and would like to get paid fast too…reach out and maybe we can find a mutually agreeable deal. And anyways, our quotes are fast and free and come with no obligation to use our services. It is nice to know what all of your options are before you decide on a method to sell your house.  

Q:  How do you determine the price to offer on my house?
A: The process in which we figure out what to offer for your house is simple. We consider where your house is, what sorts of repairs it needs, and the value of nearby houses that have sold recently. We have worked in your area for years and we are informed about local market conditions. Our offers are carefully crafted to get you paid fairly for your house and allow us to resell later on too.

Q:  Are there any fees or commissions to work with you?
A: Here is one of the biggest differences when you sell directly to us instead of listing the usual way. When you work with us, there are absolutely NO fees or commissions charged. We will write you a fast and fair offer and if you like it, we will buy your house. What you see as your written cash sale price is what you get. That’s right, there are no deductions taken out for closing fees or other commissions. We profit later on when we pay to fix up your house and resell for a higher price. When the deal is done, you walk away and get paid, and don’t have to deal with the work of repairs or upgrades.

Q:  How are you different from a real estate agent?
A: When you sell your house via a real estate agent, you will have to prepare the house for the market which may involve costly upgrades or repairs. Then begins the open houses and viewings. Once that has begun, you may begin to receive offers, and then you’ll have to decide if you like any of them. Your house will also be inspected officially before the sale which could turn up even more expensive repairs. Your real estate agent’s commission is usually 3-6% of the sale price. Long story short, you will not get the exact sale price your house ends up going for. We can also get you paid faster than a typical sale will. We are not real estate agents, but real estate investors. If you sell directly to us, however, you will get your full cash offer. We attempt to turn a profit later on by fixing up the house and marketing it to find a buyer to who we will sell it for a higher price.

Q:  Is there any obligation when I submit my info?
A: Your cash sale price quote comes to you for free and with no obligation to use our services. Send us some details about your properties and we will look into it further. We might want to chat with you a bit about it before finishing up our offer for an all-cash purchase. Our aim is to make it fair for both parties. After that, the choice to use or not use our services is all yours. We want you to carefully consider all your options and decide on the one that is right for you, even if it isn’t working with us.
