Which ways can you sell an as-is house?
Listing with an agent can fit when you want to reach retail buyers and can manage the preparation, access, and time involved. Selling it yourself means handling your own marketing and buyer conversations. Compare likely repair and preparation costs, the listing agreement, carrying costs, and the written price and terms for a direct sale.
Cash Offer or EZ Sale: compare the written numbers
For an as-is property, compare the condition, access, occupancy, and timing each path needs. The program terms below let you compare two direct-sale options with listing or selling the house yourself.
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.

A Killeen city detail for vacant or neglected houses
The City of Killeen says its Vacant Structure Registration Ordinance applies to vacant structures within the Historic Overlay District. That is a limited area, not a citywide vacancy rule, and it does not establish whether a particular address is covered. If a city notice or property condition is part of your decision, check with the City's Code Enforcement office; its page lists routes for issues such as high grass, litter and debris, junked vehicles, and dangerous buildings. The City's Downtown Killeen page describes the Historic Overlay context.
What costs should you compare?
With a listing, compare repairs and preparation, compensation under your listing agreement, other sale expenses, and the bills you carry while the house is for sale. With a direct offer, compare the written price and terms with the costs and obligations tied to your property. A headline price alone does not show what you keep.
Texas has no state, county, or city real-estate transfer tax on a sale that conveys full ownership. The Texas Constitution bars a law imposing that tax on such a sale; see the Texas Constitution, Article VIII, Section 29 and the Texas Legislative Council's explanation.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Your mortgage balance, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes remain separate from those closing costs.
