Your Situation Determines Your Best Option

Not every McKinney homeowner is selling for the same reason — and the right approach depends entirely on your circumstances. Here’s how we help in the most common situations:

Going Through a Divorce

Texas is a community property state, which means the house is typically split 50/50. But you can’t split a house — you have to sell it or buy out the other party. A cash sale eliminates the 60-90 day listing process, removes the need for showings during an already stressful time, and gives both parties a clean break. We’ve worked with McKinney couples and their attorneys to close quickly and fairly. Read our full guide on selling during a divorce in Collin County.

Inherited a Property

Inheriting a house in McKinney sounds like a windfall — until you realize it needs $30,000 in repairs, the property taxes are due, and you live three hours away. We buy inherited properties in any condition, and we can work with you whether probate is open or already closed. No need to clean out the house or make repairs — we handle everything. Here’s what to do if you’ve inherited a house in Collin County.

Facing Foreclosure

If you’ve received a notice of default or your lender has started the foreclosure process, time is critical. A cash sale can close fast enough to pay off your mortgage before the auction date — protecting your credit and allowing you to walk away with any remaining equity. See your 5 options for stopping foreclosure in Collin County.

Behind on Property Taxes

Collin County property taxes are among the highest in Texas, and falling behind can lead to tax liens and eventually a tax sale. Even with a tax lien on your McKinney property, we can still make you a fair cash offer and handle the lien payoff at closing. Learn about your 4 options before the tax sale.

Relocating for Work or Family

When your employer needs you in a new city in 30 days, you don’t have time to list, stage, and wait for a buyer. We can close on your timeline — as fast as 7 days — so you can focus on your move instead of worrying about two mortgages.
