Can We Sell Our El Paso House During a Divorce?
You only have to agree on one thing — the price. After that we handle the rest, so there's nothing to argue about over repairs, contractors, showings, or who pays for what.

Avoid repairs, contractors, and showings
We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us.
You do not have to arrange a repair crew, coordinate contractors, clean out the house, or prepare it for public showings before talking with us. Tell us about the house as it stands and the practical issue that is making a regular sale hard.
Who can sign? Start with the deed and any court order
The deed shows how ownership is recorded, but it may not answer every signing question by itself. A temporary order while a divorce case is pending, or the final decree, can affect what happens to the house. The documents and title company’s requirements matter for this sale.
The title company reviews the deed and relevant court papers and confirms the documents and signatures it needs for closing. A Texas family-law attorney can explain what an order means for your situation. You can start talking with us while that review is happening.
Bring us the problem before every disagreement is settled
If the disagreement is about repairs, contractors, showings, access, or who will deal with the house, tell us what is getting stuck. You can talk through an as-is sale before every practical issue is resolved; the deed and any court orders still matter before closing.

What happens next
1. Tell us about the house
Share the El Paso address, condition, who lives there, access, timing, and what is making a sale difficult. If you know whose names are on the deed or have a court order about the property, tell us what you know.
2. Review the house and written terms
We review the house as-is. We give written cash offers in 24 hours. Written offer and written terms before you commit; title-company closing. Read the written terms before you decide whether to accept.
3. Confirm title and signing details
The title company reviews recorded ownership, payoffs, liens, and the documents and signatures needed for closing. Give the title company and your attorney any divorce order that addresses the house so they can explain what it means for this sale.
4. Review the closing figures and sign
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Mortgage balances, liens, back taxes, and your share of current property taxes are separate items in the settlement figures.
You can sign separately; we can send a notary to each of you.
Sell from anywhere in the country — we can send a notary to you, and you don't have to attend settlement or even visit the property.
Review the closing figures with the closing team before signing.
