What are your practical choices for an as-is sale?
List with an agent
Ask whether the house can be listed as it sits or whether selected work could help. Compare preparation, repairs and cleanout, the costs in your listing agreement, showings, and the bills you may carry while the house is for sale.
Sell it yourself
Selling without an agent puts marketing, buyer questions, showings, price discussions, and sale coordination in your hands. Include the time and any professional help you choose when comparing this route with a listing or offer.
Compare USA Home Buyers’ options
We have two ways to buy. A Cash Offer is built for speed, condition, and tough situations — heavy repairs, tight timelines, difficult circumstances. EZ Sale is often the better fit when the house doesn't need major repairs and you want a higher number. Either way, you compare written numbers and you pick what works best for you.
You see the written offer and terms before you commit. If you choose to sell to us, closing is through a title company.

A Jacksonville detail for houses that need work
Jacksonville Code Compliance lists unsafe structures, sanitation, overgrown lots, debris, and neglected properties among the concerns it addresses. That is useful context when a property needs work, but it does not establish whether a notice or deadline applies to a particular address. Read the City of Jacksonville Code Compliance information.
Which costs should you compare?
For a listing, compare repair and cleanout costs, preparation, listing-agreement expenses, and bills you may carry while it is for sale. For any option, put the written price beside your mortgage, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes. The headline price alone does not show what you keep.
For a sale that conveys full ownership of real property, Texas has no state, county, or city real estate transfer tax. See Article VIII, Section 29 of the Texas Constitution. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate.
Use the Jacksonville home-sale net-proceeds calculator to compare estimates using your own assumptions.
What can you do now?
