FOR REAL ESTATE AGENTS
A Cash Buyer for the Listings That Won't Close
Every agent has them. The distressed house no lender will touch. The landlocked tract that has been sitting for a year. The seller who needs out in two weeks. We are the local cash buyer for exactly those deals - houses and land, any condition, closed fast through a title company. You keep your commission, and when you send us a seller we close, you earn a referral bonus on top.
THE HARD ONES
The Listings That Don't Fit the MLS
You know the listing the moment it walks in. The foundation is shot, the roof is gone, and no buyer's lender will write a loan on it. Or it is raw land with no road access and a buyer pool of almost nobody. Or the seller is in probate, behind on taxes, or relocating in ten days, and a sixty-day listing does them no good.
These deals eat your time and rarely close. You can pour weeks into showings and price cuts and still watch the financing fall through. A standard listing is the wrong tool for a property that cannot be financed or a seller who cannot wait. That is where we come in.
SIMPLE PARTNERSHIP
How Working With Us Works
1. Bring Us the Deal
Send us the property and the situation - your listing that will not move, or a seller you cannot help the usual way. Houses or land, anywhere in East Texas. One short conversation tells us if it is a fit.
2. We Make a Cash Offer
We look at the property and bring a fair cash offer, usually within 24 hours. No lender, no appraisal, no financing contingency. If it works for your seller, we move. If it does not, you have lost nothing.
3. You Get Paid, Fast
You keep your commission on the sale, or take a referral fee if it is not your listing. We close on the timeline, through a licensed title company. Your seller is handled and you get paid without the months of waiting.
Your Commission Is Safe
You Keep Your Commission. Full Stop.
This is the first question every agent asks, so here is the straight answer. We are a principal buyer, not a brokerage. When it is your listing, you represent the seller and earn your commission on the sale to us, written into the contract like any other deal. When it is a seller you are simply sending our way, we pay you a referral fee instead. Either way, you get paid.
We are not in the business of cutting agents out. We do not take listings, we do not chase your sellers, and we do not want your buyers. We want the deals the open market cannot close, and we would rather build a relationship where you keep bringing them than save a fee one time. Get it in writing. We expect you to.
What We Buy
The Deals We Take Off Your Hands
Won't-Finance Houses
Foundation, roof, fire or water damage, or a full gut job. If no buyer's lender will touch it, we will. We buy as-is and price the repairs in, so your distressed listing finally closes.
Land That Sits
Landlocked, no road access, back taxes, ag exemption, or an old paper-subdivision lot. Banks will not finance raw land, which is why it sits. We buy it for cash.
Probate and Inherited
A seller who inherited a house or a tract and just wants it gone. We work the title side, including an affidavit of heirship when there is no will, so the deal closes clean.
Behind on Taxes or Payments
Texas foreclosure moves fast, on the first Tuesday of the month. A cash close can beat the sale date and pay off what is owed at closing, before your seller loses everything.
Tired-Landlord Rentals
A rental with tenants in place, deferred maintenance, and an owner who is done. We buy it as-is, tenants and all — no make-ready, no evictions to wait on.
Out-of-Area or Difficult Sellers
An owner two states away, or a situation too messy for a normal listing. We make it simple: one cash offer, one closing, on their schedule.
Certainty
Why These Deals Actually Close
The reason a cash sale closes when a listing falls apart is simple. There is no lender in the middle. No mortgage approval, no appraisal coming in low, no buyer backing out at the last minute because their financing died. That is the contingency that kills more deals than anything else, and it is not part of ours.
We cover the closing costs, we close through a licensed title company that holds the funds in escrow, and we close on the date that fits your seller, often in as few as 7 days. Fewer deals die, fewer surprises at the table, and you spend your time on listings that move instead of ones that limp.
HOUSES AND LAND
We Buy the Land Listings, Too
Most cash buyers only do houses, which leaves you stuck with the land. And land is the listing that sits the longest. A bank will not write a normal mortgage on a raw tract, so the buyer pool shrinks to people paying cash, and months go by with no showings. Landlocked pieces, back-tax tracts, ag ground, and old subdivision lots are the worst of it.
We buy land directly, all across East Texas - any acreage, any access, any situation. So the land listing that has been dragging down your numbers becomes a closing instead of a sign in a field. House or land, if it will not move the normal way, send it our way.
STRAIGHT TALK
The Honest Numbers, Agent to Agent
We will not pretend a cash offer beats a clean listing on price, because it usually does not. Our offer typically lands somewhere around 70 to 90 percent of what the property would be worth fixed up and sold on the open market. For a market-ready home with a seller who has time to wait, a normal listing nets more, and you should tell them so. We will too.
But that comparison changes fast on a distressed or time-pressed deal. Net out the repairs the seller cannot afford, the months of payments and taxes while it sits, the price cuts, and the real risk the financing falls through, and a certain cash close often comes out ahead. The honest move is to let your seller get both numbers, a cash offer from us and your listing proposal, and choose with open eyes. On the right deals, we make you look good.
Get Paid to Refer
The Referral Bonus
You come across these sellers all the time, the ones you cannot really help through a listing. Instead of turning them away, send them to us. If we close, we pay you a referral bonus, even when it was never your listing to begin with. It is found money for a deal you would otherwise have passed on.
There is no catch and no exclusivity. Refer one seller, or send us every hard situation that crosses your desk. The more you bring, the more you earn, and the more your sellers walk away handled instead of stuck. Reach out and we will spell out exactly how the referral works for your situation, agreed up front and in writing.
THE OPEN SECRET
That Listing Was Going to an Investor Anyway
Here is something every experienced agent already knows. When a house is too rough to finance or the seller needs out fast, that listing very often ends up sold to an investor in the end, just after months on the market, a couple of price cuts, and a commission earned the hard way. The distressed deal finds the cash buyer eventually.
We are simply that buyer on day one instead of day ninety. Same destination, far less road. It is a real, disclosed purchase that closes through a title company, nothing under the table, and your seller gets there without the long, uncertain wait. Why grind a listing for a quarter to reach the same buyer you could have called first?
The New Landscape
One More Tool in a Shifting Market
The ground has moved under agent commissions. Since the 2024 industry changes, buyer-side compensation is negotiated deal by deal instead of posted on the MLS, and the market itself has been slow. A lot of agents closed very few deals last year. Every closing counts more than it used to, and the hard ones are the ones you cannot afford to let die.
A reliable cash buyer is one more tool to keep a stuck listing from becoming a total loss. The distressed house, the dead land listing, the seller who would otherwise walk, instead of writing them off, you turn them into a closing and a check. We are not here to change how you work. We are here to help you finish the deals that will not finish themselves.

AGENT QUESTIONS
Questions Agents Ask Us
Do I really keep my commission?
Yes. When it is your listing, you represent the seller and earn your commission on the sale to us, written into the contract. When you are referring a seller that is not your listing, we pay you a referral fee instead. You get paid either way.
How does the referral bonus work?
Send us a seller, and if we close the purchase, we pay you a referral bonus. We agree on the terms up front so everything is clear and in writing. Reach out and we will walk you through how it applies to your situation.
Are you a brokerage or a competitor?
Neither. We are a direct cash buyer. We do not list property, we do not take clients, and we never compete for your listings. We only buy, directly, for cash.
What kinds of properties do you buy?
Houses in any condition and land of almost any kind. Distressed homes, rentals with tenants, inherited and probate property, pre-foreclosures, landlocked tracts, back-tax land, ag ground, and old subdivision lots. If it is hard to finance or hard to sell, it is a fit.
How fast can you close?
Often in as few as 7 days, because there is no lender and no appraisal. If your seller needs more time, they pick a later date. The timeline works around them.
Do you buy land, or only houses?
Both. Land is half of what we do, which is unusual for a cash buyer. Your stalled land listings are some of the best deals to send us.
Is everything done legitimately?
Yes. Every purchase closes through a licensed title company, with funds held in escrow by a neutral third party, the same way any real estate transaction closes. It is a clean, disclosed sale from start to finish.
