Selling a House During Divorce in Dallas-Fort Worth
No agent games. No showings. Sell your house directly for cash so you and your ex-spouse can both move forward.
What Happens If You Wait to Sell During a Divorce?
Divorce in Texas usually means the house has to get sorted out — sold, refinanced, or one spouse buys the other out. The longer it drags on, the more it costs both of you.
- Rising property taxes, utility bills, and mortgage payments on an empty house
- Repairs that cost more money the longer you wait
- Piling up city code violations and notices
- Dealing with bad tenants or a house that’s falling apart
- Losing property value as the market changes and upkeep costs grow
- Stress, worry, and wasted time from putting off big choices
You don’t have to wait for the divorce to finalize. Selling directly for cash means one less thing to fight about — a clean split, fast.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do we both have to agree before we can sell the house?
In Texas, most homes bought during the marriage are community property, so both spouses generally need to agree to sell — or a judge orders it as part of the divorce decree. We can make an offer as soon as you know who needs to sign, and we’re happy to work with both parties and your attorneys to keep things simple.
Do you pay fair prices for properties?
We’re buying the property directly, as-is, for our own account, so our offer reflects that — no showings, no repairs, no commissions, and no financing to fall through. Most people going through a divorce care less about squeezing out every last dollar and more about a fast, certain closing with nothing to fix up. We’ll walk you through exactly how we arrived at your number, and there’s never any obligation to accept.
How do you determine the price to offer on my home?
Great question, and we’re an open book: Our process is very straightforward. We look at the location of the property, what repairs are needed, the current condition of the property, and the value of comparable homes sold in the area recently. As you know, home values have taken a huge hit in the last 5 years and most areas still haven’t seen prices come back up. We take many pieces of information into consideration… and come up with a fair price that works for us and works for you too.
Are there any fees or commissions to work with you?
This is what makes us stand out from the traditional method of selling your mobile home: There are NO fees or commissions when you sell your mobile home to us. We’ll make you an offer, and if it’s a fit then we’ll buy your mobile home (and we’ll often pay for the closing costs too!). No hassle. No fees. We make our money after we pay for repairs on the mobile home (if any) and sell it for a profit (we’re taking all of the risks here on whether we can sell it for a profit or not, once we buy the mobile home from you… the responsibility is ours and you walk away without the burden of the property and its payments… and often with cash in your hand).
How are you different from a real estate agent?
Real estate agents list properties and hope that someone will buy them. The agent shows the properties to prospective buyers if there are any (the average time to sell a property in many markets right now is 6-12 months) and then takes a percentage of the sale price if they find a buyer. Oftentimes, the agent’s commission is 3-6% of the sale price of your home (so if it’s a $100,000 home, you’ll pay between $3,000 – $6,000 in commissions to an agent). Agents provide a great service for those that can wait 6-12 months to sell and who don’t mind giving up some of that sale price to pay for the commissions. But that’s where we’re different: We’re not agents, we’re home buyers. Our company actually buys homes. We don’t list homes. Since we’re actually the ones buying the home from you, and we pay with all cash…we can make a decision to buy your home within a couple of days (sometimes the same day). Again, we make our living by taking the risk to buy the home with our own cash, repair the home, and market it ourselves to find a buyer (which is the hard part in this market).
Is there any obligation when I submit my info?
There is absolutely zero obligation for you. Once you tell us a bit about your property, we’ll take a look at things, maybe set up a call with you to find out a bit more, and make you an all-cash offer that’s fair for you and fair for us. From there, it’s 100% your decision on whether or not you’d like to sell your home to us… and we won’t hassle you, won’t harass you… it’s 100% your decision and we’ll let you decide what’s right for you.
