What People Say About Working With Us
My old rental in Austin kept sitting vacant. Eagle Cash Buyers made a straightforward cash offer the day after I called and we closed in 10 days. No inspections, no repairs, and they even worked with my tenants' schedule. Perfect option for landlords wanting to sell an investment property quickly, as-is.
Allan was very helpful and the process was fast and easy. I highly recommend.
Eagle Cash Buyers helped me to stop a foreclosure. My home was 2 days away from an auction. For a company who invests in buying homes for profit they helped my family keep mine. So grateful.
After talking with several other cash buyers and real estate agents I talked with Alex and he really worked with me and got me the best deal. Down to earth and straight with facts.
One of these describes a closing faster than our normal range. We move as fast as the title work allows, but most transactions close in roughly 21 to 42 days.

Mercedes Homeowners We Help
Mercedes sellers come with very different houses and reasons. Here are six situations we see, and how a direct sale to Eagle works in each.
A House That Needs Repairs
A leaking roof, worn floors or an outdated kitchen can make a traditional listing a long project. We can buy a house in any condition when the numbers work, so you do not have to fix anything or pay repair costs before you sell. The offer reflects the condition of the house, and there is no obligation to accept it.
An Inherited House
A house passed on by a family member can be a burden if the heirs live elsewhere or disagree on what to do. We can work with the heirs and their attorney on the timeline. Everyone whose signature or authorization is required needs to be involved, and probate steps depend on your situation, so ask an attorney licensed in Texas.

A Rental With Tenants
If you are tired of managing a rental, you can sell it to us with the tenants in place, so you do not have to wait for a lease to end. The lease generally passes to the buyer at closing and what happens next depends on the lease terms. We read the lease with you before we make an offer.

Selling While Buying the Next House
When one purchase depends on the other, the timing matters. Most sales close in 21 to 42 days, or later if you need more time, and you pick the date. A signed purchase agreement is something you can ask for and show other real estate professionals as evidence that money is coming, and many agents accept it.
Behind on Payments or Taxes
Missed mortgage payments or back property taxes can pile up fast. A sale may help you avoid a foreclosure sale if it closes in time, but we cannot promise to stop or postpone a foreclosure. Liens and back taxes can often be paid from the sale proceeds when there is enough equity, so it helps to get a payoff figure early. A HUD-approved housing counselor or an attorney can explain your options.
Moving on a Schedule
A job change, a family move or a move closer to relatives can leave little time for showings and repairs. Send the address and we can usually say whether we can make an offer. You can sign in person or remotely, as the title or escrow company arranges, so you usually do not need to be in Mercedes to close.
Tell us about the property and you will hear back within one business day. Send it on a weekend and that means the next business day. There is no pressure either way.
Get My Cash OfferWhat the Numbers Actually Look Like - Cash Sale vs. Listing vs. Instant-Offer Programs
Sellers in Mercedes are right to ask about the net rather than the headline offer price. On a typical listing, agent commission, closing costs and repairs can all come out before you see a dollar. Here is how the three paths compare.
| Cost or Factor | Eagle Cash Buyers (Cash Sale) | Traditional Listing (Agent) | Instant-Offer Program (iBuyer) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Agent Commission | None - $0 | Negotiable, not fixed. For illustration only, a typical 5% to 6% commission on a $143,100 sale is about $7,200 to $8,600 | Usually none, though a service fee often applies |
| Repairs Before Sale | None - we buy as-is | Often paid by you before listing, or given back in price, and buyers' inspections often ask for more | Often deductions for repairs after the inspection |
| Transfer Tax | Texas has no real estate transfer tax, by its constitution. Anything charged is shown on your settlement statement before closing | The same rules apply | The same rules apply |
| Seller Closing Costs | We pay the closing costs. Your mortgage payoff, any liens and prorated property taxes are paid from the sale proceeds. | Title, recording and closing fees, plus prorations; amounts vary by contract | A service fee set by each platform |
| Days to Close | Most close in 21 to 42 days, or later if you need more time; you pick the date | Weeks on the market, then weeks more to close, and a financed buyer's loan can still fall through | Set by each platform, and instant-offer programs buy only in some areas |
| Showings and Inspections | No public showings. Walkthroughs and any reinspection are as set out in the agreement | Multiple showings, buyer inspection, possible renegotiation after inspection | Usually a company inspection, often with repair deductions |
| Financing Contingency Risk | No buyer mortgage contingency. Other contract terms still apply | Buyer financing can fall through weeks into the process | Low risk, but platform rules apply |
| Condition Required | We buy as-is - no updates needed | Buyers and agents expect move-in or near-move-in condition for top dollar | Varies - iBuyers often exclude significant distress |
Your actual net depends on your loan payoff, prorations and contract terms. We walk through it with you before you sign anything. Instant-offer terms vary by company and change often.
Skip the listing process. Close on your schedule, in Mercedes, with no agent commission and the closing costs covered.
See What We'd PayAn Example From a Real Call
One homeowner who contacted us was selling a house while lining up the next purchase, and his financing for the new home was going to take longer than the sale. He asked what would happen if he sold and had nowhere to go. Our transaction coordinator explained that the timeline could be worked out around his move instead of being forced. He also asked about showing other real estate professionals that money was coming, and was offered a signed purchase agreement for that purpose, which many agents accept.
Three Steps, From First Call to Closing
Sellers ask whether a cash sale is complicated. Usually it is not: we work with a licensed title or escrow company that coordinates the paperwork, and you sign in person or remotely, as the title or escrow company arranges. Here is how it runs.
Tell Us About Your Property
Call us at (833) 330-1625 or fill out the form on this page. We ask a few basic questions: the address, the condition and your situation. No obligation, no hard pitch. Tell us what you know about the roof, plumbing, foundation and any past damage. See how our closing process works, start to finish.
Receive Your Cash Offer Within One Business Day
We look at the property, recent comparable sales in Mercedes, and the repair costs, which we take off the price rather than asking you to do the work. You get a written cash offer with no agent commission. It shows the price, the contingencies and your estimated net before you sign. To weigh it against a traditional sale, our Texas page sets out what a listing costs.
Pick Your Closing Date and Get Paid
Once you accept, we open title with the title or escrow company, which handles the title search, the loan payoff and the closing paperwork. Every cost is shown on your settlement statement before closing. Most sales close in 21 to 42 days, depending on when the title work clears, or later if you need more time; you pick the date. Anything that could change the price after we agree is written into the agreement, so you can see it before you sign.
Mercedes Housing Market - What the Numbers Say
Zillow's Home Value Index put the typical Mercedes home at $143,100 in August 2026, 0.8% higher than a year earlier (https://www.zillow.com/research/data/).
A typical-value figure reflects mid-priced homes across the whole city, not the condition of any one house. A house that needs work will usually sell for less than the typical value, and one that is updated may sell for more.
On a traditional sale, an agent commission is usually between 5% and 6% of the sale price. It is negotiable and depends on the agent. On a $143,100 sale that would be roughly $7,200 to $8,600. Eagle does not charge you an agent commission when you sell your house directly to us, and the final numbers are set out in the purchase agreement.

How to Check Out Any Cash Buyer in Mercedes
These questions apply to us too. Any buyer should answer them plainly.
- Ask for proof of funds. A real buyer can show a bank letter or statement quickly. Ask us the same question. If we assign the contract, ask the closing buyer for theirs too.
- Ask whether they intend to assign the contract. Our answer: Eagle may purchase the property itself or, if the purchase agreement permits, assign its contractual rights to another investor or purchasing entity. Any assignment right is stated in the agreement before you sign. Assignment itself is not the problem. What matters is whether the right to assign is disclosed, whether the buyer stays accountable under the agreement, and whether the closing structure and deadlines are clear before you sign. Ask any buyer to put those terms in writing.
- Never pay anything up front. No application fee, no inspection fee, no processing fee. If money is moving from you to the buyer before closing, stop.
- Look the company up. Search the buyer's name in the business registry of the state where it was formed, and check that it is active. Eagle Cash Buyers, LLC is registered in Ohio.
- Get the whole offer in writing before you sign, including who pays closing costs and what happens if the buyer walks.

Mercedes and Hidalgo County Seller Questions
What Rio Grande Valley Homeowners Ask Before Selling to Eagle
Timing, repairs, tenants, mobile homes, liens and probate, in plain answers for Hidalgo County owners.
How fast can you close on a Mercedes house?
Most sales close in 21 to 42 days, or later if you need more time. You pick the date. The timeline depends on the title work, any liens or payoffs and the closing provider.
Will you make an offer if my Mercedes house needs major repairs?
We can buy a house in any condition when the numbers work. Whether we make an offer depends on the area, the value and whether the numbers work, not on condition. The offer reflects the repairs needed, and you owe no repair costs.
How soon will I get an offer?
After you send the address and basic details, we can usually provide a written cash offer within one business day. Some houses need more research, photos or a walkthrough before the offer can be finalized. There is no obligation to accept it.
Who pays closing costs when I sell my Mercedes house to you?
We pay the closing costs on a sale to us, and the purchase agreement sets this out. Eagle does not charge you an agent commission on a direct sale to us. Your mortgage payoff and any liens, delinquent taxes, HOA or association balances, agreed prorations and other seller obligations are deducted from your proceeds when applicable. The closing professional provides a settlement statement showing the charges and credits before closing. Transfer, deed, conveyance or similar taxes vary by state and locality. For a sale in Mercedes: Texas has no real estate transfer tax, by its constitution.
Can I sell my Mercedes house with a lien or back taxes on it?
Often, yes. Delinquent property taxes and many recorded liens can be paid from the sale proceeds at closing, provided there is enough equity and the required payoff or release can be obtained. The title search or other closing review will identify items that must be paid, released or otherwise resolved. A disputed lien, an unavailable payoff or debts exceeding the available proceeds can delay or prevent closing unless the issue is resolved or the creditor agrees to another arrangement. Tell us what you know upfront so the closing professional can investigate it early.
Do I have to go through probate before I can sell an inherited house in Mercedes?
It depends on how title was held and Texas law. Property held in the deceased owner's name alone may require probate or another estate procedure before anyone has authority to sign a deed. Property held in a trust or with survivorship rights may pass outside probate. A probate or estate attorney licensed in Texas should confirm who has authority and which procedure applies. We can evaluate the property and make an offer while that is being established, but we cannot close until someone has legal authority to sign.
Do I still have to make disclosures if I sell my Mercedes house as-is?
Selling a property as-is does not automatically eliminate disclosure obligations under applicable federal, state or local law. Tell us what you know about the roof, plumbing, electrical system, foundation, environmental conditions and any past damage or repairs so we can evaluate the property accurately and address known issues in writing before you sign. Texas sellers commonly complete a seller's disclosure, which may apply to your sale. A real estate attorney licensed in Texas can confirm which disclosures apply.
Will Eagle Cash Buyers buy my house itself, or assign the contract?
Eagle may purchase the property itself or, if the purchase agreement permits, assign its contractual rights to another investor or purchasing entity. Any assignment right is stated in the agreement before you sign. The agreement also states the price, closing date or timeline, contingencies and other material terms. The closing is handled by the title company, escrow holder, settlement agent or closing attorney used for the transaction.
Can selling my Mercedes house to you stop a foreclosure?
A sale may help avoid a foreclosure sale if it closes in time and the proceeds are enough to satisfy the required payoff, or if the lender gives written approval to accept less. In Texas, a home loan secured by a deed of trust is generally foreclosed by a trustee's sale rather than through a court case. We cannot promise to stop or postpone a foreclosure; that depends on the lender or servicer, the trustee or the court, the timing and whether the transaction closes. Contact us as early as possible and bring every notice you have so we can usually tell you whether our expected timeline appears workable. A HUD-approved housing counselor or an attorney licensed in Texas can explain your legal options and deadlines. At Eagle, we can help only if there are at least 3 weeks before the auction date and you can send paperwork quickly and help the title company close fast. Our Texas page explains how the foreclosure process generally works in the state.
Will you buy a mobile home or manufactured home in Mercedes?
We buy mobile homes only when they are sold together with the land they sit on. If you own the land and the home, send the address and we can usually say whether we can make an offer.
Who needs to be on the call when you present the offer?
At Eagle, our policy is to have everyone on the deed and every decision maker on the call when we present the offer, so they can decide together whether to move forward. A spouse, relative or attorney can make the first contact.
Can I sell with tenants in the house?
Yes, we can buy a rental with tenants in place. The lease generally passes to the buyer at closing, and what happens next depends on the lease terms. Send us a copy of the lease with the address.
Do I have to be in Mercedes to sell?
Usually not. You can sign in person or remotely, as the title or escrow company arranges, so a move out of the area need not hold up the sale. We work with a licensed title or escrow company that coordinates the paperwork.
Can I stay in the house for a short time after closing?
In some cases Eagle can agree to a short stay after closing, usually 7 to 14 days. Part of the seller's proceeds is held in escrow by the title company or attorney and released when the seller moves out. Eagle does not offer rent-backs or longer stays.
Eagle Cash Buyers is not a law firm, title company or tax advisor. This information is general and is not legal, title or tax advice. Laws, procedures and transaction costs vary by state and locality, and the purchase agreement and closing documents control each transaction.
