Property Story • 2024
Inherited Property Probate Major Repairs No Cleanout

An Inherited House That Needed Extensive Work

The owner inherited this Houston property and was dealing with a house that needed substantial work. The property had issues involving the foundation, roof, HVAC and electrical systems.

Instead of taking on the repairs and preparing the house for a traditional listing, the seller chose to move forward with the property in its existing condition. There was also no need to completely clean out the house before the transaction.

The transaction closed approximately 30 days after moving forward.

Property Story • 2024
Heirship Former Rental Property Repairs Title Work

A Former Rental With Heirship Issues

This Houston property had previously been used as a rental and needed interior work. The ownership situation also required heirship issues to be addressed before the transaction could be completed.

Affidavits of heirship were used as part of resolving the ownership documentation. The property had also been through previous attempts to sell before the seller worked with us.

After the necessary pieces came together, the transaction closed in approximately 21 days.

More Properties & Seller Situations

Sometimes the challenge is the condition of the house. Other times it’s a rental, relocation, ownership issue or a change in the seller’s life. Here are several more examples from properties we’ve worked with.

Former Rental Major Repairs Freeze Damage

A Former Rental That Needed a Complete Remodel

This former rental had significant damage after the tenant moved out. The property also suffered additional damage when a pipe burst during the Texas freeze, leaving the house in need of a complete remodel.

A typical investor purchase didn’t fit the seller’s financial situation, so a different transaction structure was used to help move the property forward.

The transaction was structured around the property’s condition and the seller’s circumstances.
