What we take on
We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us. For a fire-damaged house, that means you do not have to clean up, repair, or haul away debris before selling to us.
Tell us what you know about the damage and the property's condition. Do not enter an unsafe or restricted house to gather details; share what you can safely access.
You keep your insurance proceeds
We buy the house exactly as it stands, and you keep your insurance proceeds.
Confirm how the proceeds and any mortgage requirements apply to your claim with your insurer and mortgage servicer.
What happens next
Tell us about the damage
Share the address, what was damaged, any limits on safe access, and your timing. You can start with what you know.
Read the written terms
We'll give you a written cash offer within 24 hours. You receive written offer and written terms before you commit.
Close through a title company
If you choose to proceed, closing is through a title company.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Your mortgage balance, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate.
College Station building, permit, and property-record contacts
Do not enter a structure that may be unsafe or where officials have restricted access. Follow the directions from the fire or building official and utility provider responsible for the property. Before cleanup, repairs, or demolition, ask the authority for the address what permits or inspections apply. If the house is outside College Station's jurisdiction, contact the authority that covers that address.
- City building inspections: College Station Building Inspections. The City describes its construction-permit inspection workflow and routes inspection requests through eTRAKiT or Planning & Development Services. Ask what applies to the actual property and work; the page does not establish an address-specific permit status or a blanket inspection requirement for a sale.
- Brazos County property-tax questions: BCAD tax-payment information. BCAD says payments are made to the Brazos County Tax Office, not BCAD, and lists the office at 4151 County Park Ct., Bryan, TX 77802. No parcel balance or payment status has been checked. The City tax information distinguishes the City portion from Brazos County and College Station Independent School District taxes; it does not give a parcel-specific amount here.
- Brazos County records or recording questions: the Texas Office of Court Administration directory lists the County Clerk at 300 E 26th St., Suite 1430, Bryan, TX 77803-5360, phone 979-361-4135. Use the Texas OCA directory to confirm the listing and ask about records or recording. Current procedures, fees, forms, and acceptance for a particular address or document were not verified.
Compare rebuilding with selling as-is
Compare written cleanup, repair, or rebuilding estimates with the time and property costs you expect while the work is underway. Ask your insurer and mortgage servicer how their requirements apply to your claim and loan, and ask the City which permits or inspections apply to the work at your address.
Put those estimates beside the written sale terms and the net you expect from a listing after costs. Use the College Station calculator with assumptions you can adjust; it is an estimate, not an insurance payout, contractor quote, or property-specific offer.
