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. The Cash Offer is direct: USA Home Buyers buys directly, with a term of 30 days or less and a lower price. EZ Sale goes to one of our partners, with a term of 60 days or less and a higher price than the Cash Offer. Both are listed with no repairs, no commissions and no closing costs. Either way, compare the written numbers and pick what works best for you.

Often, yes, if the sale closes before the foreclosure sale. Texas home foreclosures usually proceed without a court case. For a home used as your residence, the servicer must send a written default notice by certified mail and give at least 20 days to catch up before a sale can be noticed. The sale notice must then be posted at the courthouse, filed with the county clerk and sent by certified mail to each borrower at least 21 days before the sale. The public auction is usually on the first Tuesday of the month between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., and must start no later than three hours after the time in the notice. Some foreclosures go through court and follow different steps. If a trustee's sale is scheduled, tell us the date right away so we can try to close before it.

No. A mailing address does not identify the county or jurisdiction for every parcel. Corpus Christi city boundaries intersect Nueces, Kleberg, San Patricio and Aransas Counties, but that boundary map is not a parcel-level county determination. Confirm the county for the property before relying on a county office or record search.

No. You can call with the property address, what you know about its condition, who lives there and your timing. A deed, tax bill or notice, lease, payoff statement or court paper may help answer a particular question, but you can start before you have everything gathered.
