As Texas homeowners confront rising property taxes, aging homes requiring expensive repairs, and complicated estate settlements, a Texas-based real estate investment company is providing solutions where conventional real estate sales often prove inadequate. iBuy-Houses, serving over 30 Texas communities, purchased more than 50 homes in 2024 from families dealing with foreclosure threats, inheritance complications, divorce settlements, and properties needing extensive repairs that made traditional sales impractical.
The company's founder emphasizes they are not competing with traditional real estate agents but serving a distinct market of homeowners who need to sell quickly, cannot afford repairs, or are handling complicated situations where time is critical. Recent clients include a Bonham family who inherited their parents' home but lived out of state and could not manage the property, a Sherman couple facing foreclosure after unexpected medical bills, and a Denison landlord overwhelmed by a problem rental property with difficult tenants.
Unlike traditional home sales that typically take 90-180 days and require thousands of dollars in repairs, staging, and agent commissions averaging 6% of the sale price, iBuy-Houses makes all-cash offers within 24 hours and can close in as little as 7 days. The company serves communities throughout Texas, with particular focus on small to mid-size cities often overlooked by larger institutional investment firms. Current service areas include Bonham, Sherman, Denison, Paris, Greenville, Tyler, Longview, Waco, Temple, College Station, Victoria, and dozens of other Texas cities.
The company's model addresses several common situations where cash home buyers provide solutions. These include inherited properties where heirs live out of state or cannot afford maintenance, foreclosure prevention for homeowners behind on payments, divorce settlements requiring quick property liquidation, homes needing major repairs like foundation work or roof replacement, tired landlords overwhelmed by problem tenants, job relocations requiring fast moves, and seniors downsizing who want a simple process.
iBuy-Houses eliminates many pain points of traditional home selling by charging no fees or commissions, requiring no repairs or improvements, and allowing sellers to choose their closing date. The company founder notes that every home has a story and every homeowner has unique circumstances, with their role being to provide fair, fast solutions when traditional methods do not fit the situation. They maintain transparency about how offers are calculated and why direct cash sales make sense for certain homeowners.
As 2025 begins, iBuy-Houses is expanding services to additional Texas markets and expects to help over 100 families this year. The company is also increasing educational outreach to help Texas homeowners understand all their options when facing difficult real estate situations. Many people do not realize cash home buying is an option, thinking listing with a realtor is the only way. The company aims to educate homeowners about alternatives so they can make informed decisions about what is best for their unique situation.
