Sell your house fast for cash in Houston, TX

Local cash buyers in Harris County compete for your house.

Harris County is huge, and so is the range of houses: flood-hit ranches, aging pier-and-beam bungalows, and suburban houses with foundation problems. Cash buyers here take on the repairs and flood history that scare off financed buyers.

Instead of calling buyer after buyer, send one request. Cash buyers who work in Harris County compete for the house, and we match you with the one that fits your price and your timeline.

Selling a house in Houston

Houston's inner-loop neighborhoods have 1920s–50s pier-and-beam bungalows; the suburbs are slab-on-grade ranches from the 1960s on. Foundation movement in the clay soil, past flooding, and roofs after hurricanes are the big-ticket items.

Buyers make offers on houses across Harris County, including:

  • Third Ward
  • Fifth Ward
  • Acres Homes
  • Sunnyside
  • Kashmere Gardens
  • Spring Branch
  • Alief

Common situations in Harris County

How each one works locally — and why a cash sale can help. General information, not legal advice.

Probate and inherited houses

Estates are filed in the Harris County Probate Courts. An independent executor can usually sell without further court approval; other administrations need it.

Behind on the mortgage

Harris County foreclosures are mostly trustee's sales held on the first Tuesday of the month at the location the county designates, after a notice filed at least 21 days ahead. You own the house until the sale, so you can usually still sell.

Behind on property taxes

The Harris County Tax Assessor-Collector collects taxes for most local taxing units; long-delinquent accounts go to tax suits and constable or sheriff's tax sales.

Code violations and city orders

The City of Houston's Department of Neighborhoods inspectors handle dangerous buildings and nuisance properties; outside the city, Harris County handles them.

Tired of being a landlord

Evictions in Harris County are filed in the Justice of the Peace courts for the precinct where the house sits. You can sell with tenants in place — paying, behind, or mid-eviction.

No fees or commissions, no showings or repairs, and buyers never see your contact details until you choose one. How DealSherpa works.

Selling for cash in Houston: questions

My Houston house flooded before. Do I have to disclose it?

Yes. Texas sellers must disclose known flooding and flood-insurance claims. Cash buyers in Harris County buy flood-history houses all the time and price it in.

How fast can I sell my house for cash in Houston?

Texas sales close through a title company, which pays off the loan, the taxes and any HOA balance before you're paid. Once you accept an offer, most Harris County cash sales close in one to three weeks — sooner if there's no estate or lien paperwork to clear, or later on a date you choose.
