FAQ

What types of homes do you purchase?

Myers Home Buyers buys all types of homes, including: single family homes, apartments, duplexes, townhouses, farms and even land. We’ve purchased everything from old 19th century homes to newer homes. Houses with mold, or severe foundation problems, or even rodent infestations.

Why sell to Myers?

Home owners sell their homes to us for many reasons. Many people do not want to deal with the hassle of listing their home on the market and waiting for the right buyer to come along, especially in homes needing costly repairs or updating. Others need to simply sell their house quickly, like in the cases of foreclosure, divorce, relocation, inherited property, change of income—or their home has simply sat on the market too long already.

Does the condition of my house matter?

No! At Myers Home Buyers, we buy homes “as-is”. This means it doesn’t matter if the house is outdated, has structural damage or other costly repairs—we will still make you an offer!

What does it cost to have Myers come look at my house?

Nothing! We will come inspect your property, and give you a no obligation offer. Unlike many other home purchasers and real estate agents there is no additional fee charged once we purchase your property.

How long does it take to get an offer?

Typically, by just answering a few questions about your property, like the number of bedrooms, bathrooms, overall condition and location we can give you an offer estimate over the phone. However, we will schedule a time to come and view the property to confirm property details, and give you a formal offer on the spot.

How do you determine how much you'll pay for my house?

We look at many different factors when making an offer on a property, including: location, condition of the property, cost of needed repairs and what other similar properties are selling for. Our evaluation will be explained to you, so you can understand exactly how we came to the amount we are offering.

How soon do I get the cash?

As soon as you close you will receive your cash. We can close most home purchases in as little as 7 days, and in some cases less time than that. In some cases you may also be eligible for a cash advance before closing.

When will I need to move out?

That is something that can change depending on your scenario. Typically we don’t like to buy homes with a closing date longer than 3 months out from us putting the home under contract. However, we will allow some people to stay in the property after we purchase it for a period of time up to 1 month. This typically is at no charge back to you.

What if the property belonged to a family member that did not leave a will?

Myers Home Buyers has a team that is dedicated to expediting the estate process. Part of this team is attorneys that we work with that can help push the process along. We do all of this at absolutely no cost to you.

What if the owner/co-owner does not live in the area?

Most of our closings can actually be done remotely. All you need to do is meet with a notary, which we can arrange, and sign the paperwork.

What if I am behind on my mortgage?

Call us immediately! Some banks are very diligent on taking properties back from the owner. We are experienced in negotiating with banks, and in some cases, reducing the amount of penalties you owe.

What if the property has a tax lien or other liens?

This is a unique question that completely depends on the circumstances. However, we have purchased properties with tax liens, mechanics liens, and HOA liens.

Does the property need to be cleaned once a deal is made?

No, you just get the items you want, or let us know what you are going to leave and we will arrange to empty the property.

In what areas do you buy houses?

We buy homes in Dallas, TX; Fort Worth, TX; Houston, TX; and Tampa, FL. However, if you live outside of these areas, please contact us. If you’re within 80 miles of one of our locations we’ll offer to buy your house. If not, we can probably refer you to someone else.

How do I know you are legitimate and reputable?

We’ve been involved with over 1,000 transactions in North Texas. We also will put a significant deposit down on your home, provide you with a proof of funds from a known bank, and use a Texas Real Estate Commission contract, so you know there’s no funny business hidden in the fine print. Additionally, Myers Home Buyers is accredited with the Better Business Bureau and maintains an A+ rating.
