Frequently Asked Questions

It’s natural to have questions, and we’re here to help. Below is a brief collection of common questions and our answers. If you need more information, feel free to reach out to us anytime at (214) 744-3037—we’re happy to assist you!

1. Will you list my house on the MLS or buy it?
Great question! We’re not agents and don’t list properties. At Tight Spot Home Buyers, we are professional home buyers who purchase homes in Texas based on our specific criteria. Because we don’t depend on bank financing, you can count on us to close the deal. After buying a property, we may renovate and resell it or keep it as a rental.

2. How are you different from a real estate agent?
Real estate agents list properties to attract potential buyers, a process that can take 4 to 6 months in many markets. They typically show the home to interested buyers, and once a sale is made, they earn a commission—usually between 3% and 6% of the sale price. For instance, if your home sells for $100,000, you could end up paying between $3,000 and $6,000 in agent commissions.

Agents offer valuable services for those who can wait over four months to sell and don’t mind paying commissions. However, we do things differently. At Tight Spot Home Buyers, we buy your home directly, offering a cash payment that allows us to decide within days—sometimes even the same day. Our business model involves taking on the risk, purchasing the property outright, making any necessary repairs, and handling the marketing ourselves to find a buyer.

3. Do you pay fair prices for properties?
Many of the properties we purchase are below market value, allowing us to resell them at a profit. In return, we offer sellers a fair discount and a hassle-free selling experience. From our experience, most sellers prioritize the benefits we provide—cash payments, fast closings without financing delays, and avoiding the time, effort, and costs of repairs or agent fees—over maximizing their sale price. If you’re looking for a quick, stress-free sale, we’d be happy to discuss a mutually beneficial price. Plus, with our no-obligation pricing commitment, you’re never required to accept our offer—but knowing what we can offer may be helpful.

4. How do you determine the price to offer on my house?
Great question! We’re happy to clarify. Our process is simple—we assess the property’s location, necessary repairs, current condition, and recent sale prices of similar homes in the area. By considering all these factors, we determine a fair price that works for both parties.

5. Are there any fees or commissions to work with you?
What sets us apart from traditional home-selling methods is that you won’t pay any fees or commissions when selling directly to us—unlike listing fees, which can take up to 6% of your sale price. We present you with an offer, and if it meets your needs, we purchase your home with no hassles or hidden costs. In many cases, we even cover the closing costs. Our profit comes after we handle any necessary repairs and resell the property, taking on the associated risks. Once the sale is complete, ownership transfers to us, freeing you from the burden of the property and its expenses—while you walk away with cash in hand.

6: Is there any obligation when I submit my information?
You’re under no obligation whatsoever. Once you share some details about your property, we’ll review the information and may schedule a call to learn more. Then, we’ll present you with a fair all-cash offer that works for both parties. The decision to sell is entirely yours, and we fully respect whatever choice you make.

By choosing our services, you can skip the expenses and inconveniences associated with multiple walkthroughs, open houses, extensive inspections, and prolonged listings with a real estate agent. For more information on securing an all-cash, as-is transaction, please visit our “How It Works” page. If you have any further questions, feel free to call or text us at (214) 744-3037. Should we determine that purchasing your property is not the best solution, we remain dedicated to helping you find the most suitable way to sell it.
