Compare what you keep, not just the sale price
Repairs, commissions, cleanout, carrying costs, and written sale terms can change the amount you keep. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate. Review the Cash Offer and EZ Sale comparison and use the Granbury calculator to compare possible net proceeds with your own assumptions.
Cash Offer or EZ Sale: compare the written numbers
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.

Useful questions about selling in Granbury
Can I sell my Granbury house without making repairs?
We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us. Tell us what you know about the house, its condition, who is there, and your timing.
What is the difference between a Cash Offer and EZ Sale?
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. Cash Offer is USA Home Buyers buying directly, 30 days or less, at a lower price. EZ Sale goes to one of our partners, 60 days or less, at a higher price than the Cash Offer. Both have no repairs, no commissions, and no closing costs; EZ Sale includes partner visits. Compare the written numbers and choose what works for you.
How soon can I get a written cash offer?
We give written cash offers in 24 hours. Start with the property address and the condition, occupancy, and timing details you know.
Can I read the offer and terms before I decide?
Written offer and written terms before you commit; title-company closing. Read the price, responsibilities, timing, and property-specific costs before deciding what to do.
What costs affect what I keep from a sale?
Compare what you would keep, not just the sale price. Repairs, commissions, cleanout, carrying costs, and the written sale terms can change the comparison. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate amounts to account for.
Does Texas charge a real estate transfer tax?
No. Texas has no state, county, or city real estate transfer tax. The deed is signed in front of a notary and recorded with the county clerk. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate.
Can I sell my Texas house while it is in foreclosure?
Often, yes, if your sale closes before the foreclosure sale. In Texas, a lender usually forecloses on a home without going to court; a trustee or substitute trustee runs the sale. For property used as your residence, the loan servicer must first send a written notice of default by certified mail and give you at least 20 days to catch up before a sale can be noticed. At least 21 days before the sale, the notice of sale must be posted at the courthouse, filed with the county clerk, and sent by certified mail to each borrower. The sale is a public auction at the county courthouse, usually on the first Tuesday of the month between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m.; it must start no later than three hours after the time stated in the notice. Some foreclosures go through court instead 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.
How do I know which local jurisdiction handles a Granbury property?
Granbury is an incorporated city. In 2020 Census geography, the Granbury place polygon lies in Hood County. The City’s map can help orient you to the incorporated boundary and ETJ, but it does not determine a parcel’s status. Confirm the property’s current jurisdiction with the relevant office.
Can I call before I have every document gathered?
Yes. Start with the address, what you know about the condition and occupancy, and your timing. A notice, estate paper, lease, payoff, or lien information may help answer the next question, but you can call before you have everything figured out. Written offer and written terms come before you commit, with a title-company closing.

Local help
Use the City’s map to orient a jurisdiction question
The City of Granbury publishes a map separating the incorporated boundary from its ETJ. Use it for orientation, not to decide a parcel’s status; confirm the current jurisdiction with the relevant office.
