Sell Your House Fast in Richmond, TX. Fort Bend County Seat.Written Offer in One Business Day.

It affects which taxing districts and services apply to your house, and your tax bill or deed shows them. It does not change whether we can look at your house. Some Fort Bend County communities have Richmond addresses without being inside the city, so send the address and we can usually say whether we can make an offer.

Usually not by much. The title company asks the HOA for a status or payoff letter. Any unpaid balance is usually paid from your proceeds, and who pays a transfer fee is set out in the purchase agreement. If you have a notice from your HOA, send it with the address so we can look at it early.

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 Richmond: Texas has no real estate transfer tax, by its constitution.

In Texas, a licensed title or escrow company usually handles the closing. It runs the title search, holds the funds, arranges payoffs and records the deed. You can sign in person or remotely. Most sales close in 21 to 42 days, or later if you need more time. You pick the date. A Texas attorney can review the agreement if you want one.

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.

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.

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.

We buy mobile homes only when they are sold together with the land they sit on. If you own the home and the land, send the address and a few details and we can usually say whether we can make an offer.

No. You can leave behind what you want to. The offer takes the condition into account. Whether we can make an offer depends on the area, the value and whether the numbers work.

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 may make the first contact, and we can talk through the process with them.

Yes, comparing offers is a good idea. Look at the price, who pays the closing costs, the closing date and how clear the written terms are. Our acquisition manager can explain how an offer is reached, and you are welcome to have an agent or attorney you trust review it.

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 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.

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.
