From the first conversation to settlement

The Fort Worth sale, step by step

  1. Step 1: Tell us what you know about the house

    Start with the Fort Worth address, the house's condition, who occupies it, access, and the timing you are considering. If an estate, mortgage payoff, lien, tax balance, tenant, or deadline is part of the situation, tell us what you know. You can start the conversation before every property question is settled.

  2. Step 2: Talk through the property and your choices

    We ask practical questions about repairs, occupancy, access, ownership, and timing. We look at the house as it sits. We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us. Then we talk through the options that fit the property, including our Cash Offer and EZ Sale, listing, or another path.

  3. Step 3: Read the written offer and terms

    We give written cash offers in 24 hours. Written offer and written terms before you commit; title-company closing. Read the price, responsibilities, possession, timing, costs, and property-specific conditions before deciding whether to proceed.

  4. Step 4: Work through title, signing authority, and payoffs

    If you choose to proceed, the title company checks the deed, ownership, who can sign, mortgage payoffs, liens, taxes, and the documents needed for closing. A payoff is the amount needed to satisfy a mortgage or another obligation. Bring the statements, notices, or estate papers you have so the right questions can be identified; you can start before every document is in hand.

  5. Step 5: Review the settlement sheet

    The settlement sheet shows how the sale money breaks down. We always review the settlement sheet with the seller and walk through how the money breaks down so there is no confusion. We try to do that the day before closing so settlement is smooth; the title company confirms the final numbers.

  6. Step 6: Choose, sign, and close

    If you decide to proceed, the title company handles the closing paperwork and confirms the final numbers. You're going to get a fair price and not have to do anything. Just show up at settlement.

Two ways to sell to us

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.

Fort Worth city and county details

Check the county for the property address

Fort Worth city land intersects Tarrant, Denton, Johnson, Parker, and Wise Counties. A particular property is in one county, so confirm its county before using a county office for records or payoff questions. These U.S. Census TIGERweb Fort Worth city boundaries ↗ and county boundaries ↗ show the citywide geography; check the actual address for the county that applies.

Closing numbers

Read the settlement figures

The settlement sheet lays out the sale price and the amounts that affect what is paid out, including mortgage payoffs, liens, taxes, and other costs. We always review the settlement sheet with the seller and walk through how the money breaks down so there is no confusion. We try to do that the day before closing so settlement is smooth; the title company confirms the final numbers.

Texas has no state, county, or city real-estate transfer tax on a sale that conveys full ownership of real property. The deed is signed before a notary and recorded with the county clerk. Recording fees are based on page count, not the sale price, and can be higher if the deed leaves out the buyer's mailing address. Texas Constitution, Article VIII, Section 29 ↗ and Texas Legislative Council background ↗.

When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs.

Your mortgage, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes remain separate settlement items.

When things get difficult

We keep working through the bumps

It's real estate. Sometimes there are bumps in the road. We won't disappear when that happens, and we'll be fighting to get this to the closing table.
