Companies That Buy Houses in Texas: The Full List, Including Us

Why We Publish a List That Includes Our Competitors

Most "companies that buy houses in Texas" lists are written by one of two people: a lead-generation site that sells your phone number to whoever pays, or a single buyer pretending its competitors don't exist. We took a third route. We buy houses in Texas, we want your call, and we still put every serious competitor on this page with their evidence quoted, because a seller who compares us against the field is exactly the seller we win.

So here's the standard every listing was held to, ours included: verified against a live website, evidence limited to what's actually visible (displayed review counts, BBB logos, advertised timelines), and self-reported figures labeled as self-reported. Companies we couldn't verify against a live site didn't make the page. Neither did national iBuyers or lead resellers, for reasons covered below.

What Makes EZ Time Different: Two Paths Instead of One

Every other buyer on this list can hand you exactly one thing: a cash number. If that number works for your situation, great, they're legitimate companies and several of them will treat you fairly. But if the number comes in low (and cash offers price in repairs, resale risk, and the buyer's margin, so they often do), your only move with a one-path buyer is to walk away with nothing.

EZ Time is the only company on this page with a second path. It works like this:

Path one: the as-is cash offer

The same product the rest of the list sells, done transparently. One walkthrough, a written offer with the after-repair value, repair estimate, and our margin itemized, proof of funds in writing if you ask, and a title-company closing on your date, typically two to three weeks. Any condition, any situation, anywhere in Texas.

Path two: the Retail Buyer Program

Built for sellers whose cash offer number doesn't work. Instead of ending the conversation, we do the work while you keep the same easy process: no commissions, no fees, no showings to manage, and your proceeds agreed in writing before anything starts. You end up with more than a typical cash offer would have paid. One form covers both paths, so you're never choosing blind; you see both numbers and pick the one that fits.

That's the honest pitch. Compare it against every buyer below and call whoever earns it.

What About iBuyers and Listing With an Agent?

You'll notice Opendoor and Offerpad aren't on this list. iBuyers quote a computer-generated number that looks decent until the deductions start: a service fee off the top, then an inspection that produces a repair credit you can't negotiate against a person, and strict purchase criteria that exclude older houses, houses needing real work, and houses in most of Texas outside a few metro cores. Sellers routinely watch the final net land far below the headline number, after they've already mentally spent it.

Listing with an agent is the other road, and for a house that needs work or a seller on a clock, it's a rough one: 5 to 6% in commissions, repair negotiations after the inspection, strangers walking through on showings, 60 to 90+ days of timeline in a normalizing market with heavy inventory, and the ever-present risk that the buyer's financing collapses a week before closing and you start over. In Texas specifically, where a foreclosure can go from default notice to the courthouse steps in about 41 days, that timeline isn't just slow, it can be fatal to your equity.

Where We Buy in Texas

Everywhere, all 254 counties, but these markets have their own guides:

• Dallas, plus the DFW suburbs
• Houston, including flood-history houses across Harris County
• San Antonio, including military-timeline sales
• Fort Worth, now Texas's 4th-largest city
• El Paso, including Fort Bliss PCS timelines
• Killeen, Fort Cavazos moves and accidental landlords

The Texas hub covers the statewide picture: the 41-day foreclosure clock, the property-tax math, muniment of title for inherited houses, and why Texas closings run smoother than most states'. If your city isn't listed above, the process is identical: one form, one walkthrough, both numbers in writing. Published city guides follow demand, but the buying footprint is the whole state, not the table of contents, so a house in Lubbock, Waco, or a rural county gets the same written offer and the same two paths as one in Dallas.

How to Vet Any Cash Buyer (Including Us)

Whichever company you call first, run the same checks:

1. Demand a written offer with the math shown. ARV, repair estimate, margin. A buyer who won't show the math is hoping you won't ask. Our guide to how cash buyers actually calculate offers shows what honest numbers look like.
2. Ask for proof of funds in writing. A real buyer has it and hands it over. A wholesaler tying up your contract to shop it around usually doesn't.
3. Look up the LLC and read reviews on platforms the company doesn't control. Displayed badges are a starting point, not an ending point; live Google and BBB profiles change monthly.
4. Ask about assignment before signing. "Will you be the buyer on the closing statement, or someone else?" is the single most clarifying question in this industry.
5. Verify the title company. Every legitimate Texas cash sale closes through one.
