Questions About Selling a House in Longview, TX

Yes. We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us. You can tell us what needs work and compare the written terms before you decide.

We give written cash offers in 24 hours. You get the written offer and terms before you commit, and the closing is through a title company. The written terms show the program timing; an offer in 24 hours is not a property-specific closing date.

Compare net proceeds — the money left after the costs attached to each option — rather than comparing only headline prices. The calculator lets you change assumptions for a possible listing and a cash sale, and the comparison above lays out the Cash Offer and EZ Sale terms.

No. Texas has no state, county, or city real estate transfer tax. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes and share of current property taxes are separate. The deed is signed in front of a notary and recorded with the county clerk.

Longview’s incorporated area intersects Gregg and Harrison Counties. The City of Longview tax-information page directs property in those counties to the respective county offices. Check the parcel or title records to confirm the legal county for your particular address, then use that county’s office.

Often, yes, if the sale can close before the foreclosure sale. Texas home foreclosures are usually non-judicial, meaning they can proceed without a court case. For a home used as your residence, the loan 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. At least 21 days before the sale, 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 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 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.

Yes. You can call before you have everything gathered. Tell us what you know about the property and the papers you already have. Before you commit, you will have a written offer and written terms; the title company can confirm who has authority to sign and what records are still needed for closing.

Yes. You can start the conversation while the house is occupied. Tell us who lives there, what the lease says if you have it, and what you know about timing and possession. The occupancy and handoff plan should be clear in the written terms before you commit.

You can call and explain what notices or balances you know about. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs; that does not pay your mortgage balance, liens, back taxes, or share of current property taxes. The title company reviews the property-specific amounts and how they appear in the closing figures.

You do not have to repair or clean out the house before asking about an as-is sale. We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us. Share the notice or damage details so they can be considered in the written property terms.

You can call before you have everything figured out. Start with the property address and the question or timing on your mind; a deed, lease, tax notice, payoff statement, lien notice, or foreclosure paper can help with the next step, but you do not need a perfect file to start.
