Frequently Asked Questions

At Lone Star Cash Homes, we aim to get you an offer as fast as possible. But we also want to make sure it’s based on your home’s actual condition and your unique situation. That’s why we usually wait until we’ve had a chance to meet you and walk through the property before making an offer. Trust us—this approach helps us give you a solid, fair number.

Here’s what typically happens: First, we’ll chat with you over the phone to make sure we’re a good fit. Then we’ll schedule a time that works for you to see the house in person. After that, we usually have your cash offer ready within a few hours or by the next day at the latest.

Since Lone Star Cash Homes buys houses for investment—not to live in—we’re flexible on your closing date. Need extra time to find a new place? No problem! Want to close super fast? We can do that too. In many cases, we can close as soon as two weeks from today if needed.

Nope! One of the biggest perks of working with Lone Star Cash Homes is that we buy houses as-is. That means you don’t have to worry about repairs, cleaning, or getting your house “market ready.”

In some cases, we may bring in a home inspector just for our own reference—to help us plan our renovations—but you will never be asked to fix anything.

Honestly… not much! You won’t be dealing with endless showings or negotiations. Once you accept our offer, you just sit back and wait for closing day.

If you’re still living in the home, you’ll need to handle moving your stuff—but if you need help with that, Lone Star Cash Homes can assist! We also handle all the paperwork and coordinate with our title company to make the whole process smooth and hassle-free.

It depends! Every property and situation is different. Here are some common things we do:

• Renovate and resell
• Renovate and rent
• Help people who can’t get traditional financing become homeowners
• Use the property for short-term rentals

The biggest benefits are speed and simplicity. When lenders get involved, things can drag out and there are more hurdles—like appraisals, financing contingencies, and repair demands. Plus, banks usually won’t lend on homes needing major repairs.

With Lone Star Cash Homes, you get a cash offer with no financing contingencies. That means no waiting on loan approvals and no risk of the deal falling through at the last minute.

We do our best to make competitive, fair offers. We know if our offers aren’t realistic, we won’t buy any houses!

Our goal is to keep our renovation costs low so we can offer you more. We base our offer on your home’s after-repair value minus renovation and resale costs. Want to see how we calculate it? Just ask—we’re happy to walk you through it. And remember, there’s no pressure to accept!

None. Zero. When we make you an offer, that’s the amount you’ll receive at closing—no commissions, no hidden fees, and we’ll even cover your closing costs.

Compared to listing with an agent (where you’d typically pay 6% in commissions plus closing costs and possible repair expenses), working with Lone Star Cash Homes could save you thousands.

Great question! Our offers depend on several factors: location, size, condition, finishes, recent neighborhood sales, and what we plan to do with the property.

We also factor in your timeline and goals to make sure the offer works for you. Every situation is unique, and we do everything we can to structure a deal that makes sense.

Real estate agents list your house and hope someone buys it. Lone Star Cash Homes, on the other hand, is your actual buyer. You won’t be wondering if your house will sell—we’re making you a direct offer.

While agents focus on getting top dollar through traditional marketing, we specialize in fast, hassle-free sales with no showings, no repairs, and no waiting. If you’re looking for speed and certainty, working with Lone Star Cash Homes may be the better choice for you.
