Frequently Asked Questions
Real questions from Texas homeowners, organized by what’s usually on your mind first.
Common Situations
I'm behind on my mortgage but haven't received a foreclosure notice yet — is it too early to talk to you?
Not at all — the earlier you reach out, the more options you have. Once a foreclosure sale date is set, your options narrow fast. We'd rather talk to you six months before that happens than the week of.
The house I inherited is still in my late parent’s name — can you still buy it?
Usually, yes, once the property has gone through (or is going through) probate. We work with probate situations regularly and can walk you through exactly what stage yours is at.
I have a code violation notice from the city — will that stop me from selling?
No — in fact, that’s one of the most common reasons homeowners come to us. We buy the property as-is, violations and all, so you’re not the one who has to bring it up to code.
I live out of state and inherited a property in Texas I’ve never seen in person. How does that work?
Everything can be handled remotely — evaluation, paperwork, and closing. Many of our sellers never set foot in Texas during the process.
I owe back property taxes — can you still buy the house?
Yes — property tax debt is one of the most common situations we help with. We handle the payoff directly as part of closing, so you’re not the one coordinating with the county under time pressure.
I’m going through a divorce and we need to sell the house — can you help?
Yes. Selling during a divorce often calls for a fast, clean, unbiased sale rather than a drawn-out listing process. We can work directly with both parties and keep the transaction straightforward.
I’m a landlord and I’m tired of managing tenants — do you buy occupied rental properties?
Yes, including properties with tenants currently in place. We handle these case-by-case and can talk through what the transition looks like for you and your tenants.
The Process
Do you buy vacant land or lots, not just houses?
Yes. We purchase vacant land and lots in addition to houses, anywhere in our Dallas-Fort Worth and Greater Houston service areas.
How do you calculate an offer?
We look at the property’s condition, recent comparable sales in the area, and the cost of any repairs or updates it would need. The offer reflects a fair cash price for buying as-is, without the time or cost of a traditional listing.
How long does closing typically take?
It varies by situation — we’ve closed in as little as two weeks, and we’re also glad to work on a longer timeline if that’s what fits your circumstances.
Do I really not need to make any repairs?
Correct. We buy properties in their current condition — no cleaning, repairs, or updates needed before closing.
Do you cover closing costs?
Yes. As part of a direct sale to us, we cover standard closing costs — one less thing for you to budget for.
Will I need to be present for closing, or can it be handled remotely?
It can be handled remotely — evaluation, paperwork, and signing can all be done without you needing to travel to Texas.
I still have a mortgage on the property — do I still get any money from the sale?
In most cases, yes. Your existing mortgage payoff is factored into the offer, and the difference — your equity — comes to you at closing, the same as it would in a traditional sale.
Do you buy properties with liens attached?
In many cases, yes — liens are typically resolved out of the sale proceeds at closing, similar to a mortgage payoff. We’ll walk you through exactly what’s owed and how it affects the numbers before you commit to anything.
What if I decide not to sell after getting an offer?
Nothing happens. There’s no cost, no obligation, and no pressure to move forward — you can accept, decline, or just take time to think it over.
Trust & How We Work
Am I under any obligation if I submit my information?
No. Requesting an offer, talking with our team, or even receiving a written offer never obligates you to sell. You’re free to walk away at any point.
How did RCPS get my information?
We use publicly available property records to identify properties and reach out to owners directly. We don’t purchase leads from third-party marketing lists.
How does RCPS make money on the deal?
We purchase at a price that accounts for repair costs, holding costs, and the property’s resale value, and then either resell it or hold it. That margin is how we operate as a business, and it’s why we’re able to offer a fast, as-is, commission-free sale.
Why did I get a text or call from RC Property Solutions?
Your property came up in our research into publicly available records — not an assumption about your personal situation. There’s no obligation to respond, and no pressure if you do.
How do I stop receiving texts or calls from you?
Reply STOP to any text to opt out immediately, or call or email us directly and we’ll update our records right away.
Is RC Property Solutions a licensed real estate agency?
No — we’re not a brokerage. RC Property Solutions buys properties directly, as the actual buyer, not as a listing agent. That’s part of why there’s no commission: you’re selling directly to us, not through an intermediary.
Are you a local company or a national chain?
Local. We’re a Texas-based company operating in Dallas-Fort Worth and Greater Houston, not a national franchise or call center. When you talk to us, you’re talking to the same local team handling your specific property.
Will my personal information be shared with anyone else?
No — we don’t sell or share your information with third parties for marketing purposes. See our Privacy Policy for full details on how your information is used and protected.
