Money and choices

Compare what you keep, not just the sale price

Net proceeds are the money left after sale costs and property balances. Compare a written price with the costs that apply to your house, including repairs, commissions, carrying costs, payoff, liens, back taxes, and your share of current property taxes.

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

Laredo seller questions, answered

What would I keep if I sold my Laredo house for cash?

Net proceeds are what remains after sale costs and property balances, not just the headline price. Compare the written price with repairs, commissions, concessions, carrying costs, and any mortgage payoff, liens, back taxes, or share of current property taxes. The actual numbers depend on the house and written terms.

What is the difference between a Cash Offer and EZ Sale?

A Cash Offer is a direct purchase by USA Home Buyers, 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. Compare the written numbers and responsibilities for your house before choosing.

We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us. You don't need to fix the house before you ask about your options.

Does Texas charge a tax when I sell my house, and who pays closing costs?

No. Texas has no state, county, or city real-estate transfer tax. The deed is signed before 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 ask about an inherited house before I have every estate document?

Yes. You can start before every document is gathered, but the person signing and that person’s authority must be clear before closing. In an independent administration, the executor or administrator generally may sell once the court issues letters, which show the appointment. In a dependent administration, a court order and judge approval are required before the sale. The will, deed, estate orders, and title review determine what applies.

Can I sell a Laredo rental house with tenants still living there?

Yes. A sale does not cancel the lease. The new owner becomes responsible for returning the security deposit when it gets title. You remain responsible for deposits you collected until the new owner receives them or takes over that responsibility in writing. Bring the lease, deposit records, occupancy details, and access plan into the sale discussion.

What if a foreclosure sale is scheduled?

Often, you can still sell if the sale closes before the foreclosure sale. In Texas, a lender usually forecloses without going to court, through a trustee or substitute trustee. For a home used as your residence, the loan servicer must send a written default notice 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, notice must be posted at the courthouse, filed with the county clerk, and sent by certified mail to each borrower. The auction is usually at the county courthouse 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 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.

Can I sell a house with back taxes or liens?

A house with delinquent property taxes or recorded liens can be discussed, but a sale does not automatically settle every balance or determine who can sign. The title company and closing professionals confirm the actual payoffs and settlement treatment. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs; your mortgage, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes remain separate.

Can I sell a house with a code notice or repair order?

You can ask about selling without making the repairs first: we buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us. Keep any city notice or order and share it when you ask. A sale does not by itself end an order or court case; the actual notice and property records matter.

What should I have ready for a first conversation?

Start with the property address, what you know about its condition, who lives there, and your timing. A lease, deed, estate paper, tax notice, payoff statement, lien notice, or foreclosure notice can help answer a follow-up question, but you can call before you have everything gathered.
