No repairs, no cleaning, no updates. We buy houses in Elgin as-is - older homes, properties with deferred maintenance, houses that need a full renovation. Whatever condition your home is in, we make an offer based on what it's worth to us as-is, not what it would be worth after work you'd have to pay for. That includes homes with foundation issues, outdated systems, or storm damage common in Bastrop County.

Texas is a title/escrow state, which means your closing is handled by a local title company - not an attorney and not a real estate agent. The title company reviews the deed, clears the title, and coordinates the transfer of funds. You don't need an agent involved, and there's no state transfer tax in Texas, so you're not paying that fee at the table. For a full overview of what to expect, the Texas home seller guide and closing process from Texas Secure Title is a solid resource.

Property taxes in Texas are paid in arrears, so at closing they get prorated through your sale date. The Bastrop County Appraisal District's assessed value is used to calculate what you owe for the portion of the year you owned the property. That prorated amount comes out of your proceeds at closing - it's a real line item, not a surprise, and our team walks you through it before you sign anything. No competitor in this area covers this clearly, so we want you to know upfront.

Your Texas homestead exemption lowers your property tax bill while you live in the home as your primary residence. When you sell, the exemption stays with the property through the end of the tax year in most cases - but it transfers to the new owner going forward, not to you. If you're buying another home in Texas, you'll need to apply for a new homestead exemption on that property. It doesn't affect your sale proceeds directly, but understanding the timing helps you plan your move.

Yes, we buy manufactured and mobile homes in Elgin and throughout Bastrop County. The key factor is whether the home has been converted to real property - meaning the title has been surrendered to the county and the home is permanently affixed to land you own. If it's still titled as personal property (like a vehicle), the process is a bit different but still workable. Tell us your situation upfront and we'll give you a straight answer on what we can do.

We buy rural properties and flood-zone homes in Bastrop County. Flood zone designation affects what a traditional buyer can finance - many lenders require flood insurance, which can kill deals or drag out timelines. Because we pay cash, there's no lender requirement, no flood insurance contingency, and no appraisal that might come in low due to the flood designation. If you have a survey, a FEMA flood map reference, or an elevation certificate, bring it - it helps us move faster. The Texas home seller guide and closing process also covers what disclosure requirements apply to flood-zone properties in Texas.

It depends on where you are in the probate process in Bastrop County. If there's a will and the executor has been granted full independent authority by the court, they can sell without getting court approval for every transaction. Texas also has two simplified options for qualifying estates: muniment of title and the small-estate affidavit - both can speed up the process significantly if the estate meets the requirements. If you're still early in probate and not sure what authority you have, we can work alongside your attorney or walk you through the timeline before we make an offer.

This is a real financial risk for Elgin-area sellers with acreage. If your land has been receiving an ag or wildlife exemption and the new use no longer qualifies, the state can assess a rollback tax - that's the difference between what you paid under the ag exemption and what you would have paid at full market value, going back up to five years. That number can be significant on Bastrop County acreage. We factor this into our conversations upfront so there are no surprises at closing. It's worth talking to a local tax professional before you commit to any sale.

Texas uses a non-judicial foreclosure process, which is one of the fastest in the country. Once formal foreclosure starts, a trustee's sale can be scheduled with just 21 days of posted and mailed notice - and sales are held on the first Tuesday of the month. From your first missed payment to a completed foreclosure sale can be as few as 4-6 months, sometimes faster depending on the servicer. If you're already behind, the window to sell and walk away with equity closes quickly. Contact us now - we've helped Elgin homeowners sell in under two weeks when timing was critical.

Elgin sits in that in-between zone - close enough to Austin to attract commuters, but far enough that buyer demand is thinner and days on market run much longer. Austin's market moves faster with more buyer competition; Bastrop city has its own local draw. Elgin's 141-day average DOM tells the story: you're competing in a buyer's market where listings sit. Traditional buyers also have more choices here, which gives them more negotiating power. A cash sale sidesteps all of that - no waiting for the right buyer to find your listing, no contingencies, no back-and-forth. If you want speed and certainty in Elgin's market, cash is the more reliable path than listing and waiting.
