You have a timeline. We work inside it.
Maybe PCS orders just arrived for Lackland or Fort Sam and you have 45 days to report. Maybe the Bexar County foreclosure notice lists a first-Tuesday auction and you’re counting the days. Maybe you inherited a house in the Monte Vista area that needs a new roof and wiring and you don’t live in San Antonio. Whatever brought you here: you want a cash offer, a real number, and a close date you can actually plan around.
Short version: We buy houses in San Antonio as-is — any condition, any situation. Cash offer within 24 hours. Close in 7 to 14 days, or whenever you need. No agent commission (5–6% you keep), no repairs, no showings, no obligation.
What happens after you submit the address
You give us the address and a phone number. We call within 24 hours with a number. If you want an in-person walkthrough first, we come out — but we don’t require it. If the number works, we agree on a close date and send a contract. You pick a title company or we use one we’ve worked with before in Bexar County. At closing, you get a wire or certified check. No fees pulled from proceeds at the table. No repair credits withheld.
We buy houses directly with our own money, and for some properties in some markets we bring a cash buyer from our network instead. Either way, you deal with us, you get the same terms, and the offer doesn’t change because of who ends up at the table.
The Bexar County foreclosure timeline is faster than most people realize
Texas uses a non-judicial foreclosure process — no court required, which means no judge slowing things down and no right of redemption after the sale on a standard residential mortgage.
Here is the sequence under Texas Property Code § 51.002:
- Servicer sends a written notice of default — you have 20 days to cure
- If not cured: Notice of Trustee’s Sale posted at the Bexar County Courthouse (100 Dolorosa Street, downtown San Antonio) and mailed at least 21 days before the sale
- Sale runs on the first Tuesday of the month, 10am–4pm at the courthouse
- Once the trustee’s deed records after the sale, there is no statutory right of redemption for ordinary residential mortgages in Texas
From the breach letter to the gavel: roughly 41 days. Faster than Florida, faster than most states. If the date on your notice is real — and it is — the window to sell before auction is short. We have closed Bexar County houses in 11 days when the notice was recent. Call the day you get the letter, not the week before the sale. See how selling before foreclosure actually works.
PCS orders are the other hard deadline
Joint Base San Antonio — Lackland, Fort Sam Houston, Randolph — is one of the largest military installation complexes in the country. When orders come, they come with a report date. Thirty, forty-five, sixty days is common.
Listing with an agent is a real option if the house is in good shape and your timeline allows it. But San Antonio’s average days-on-market has run 40–65 days in 2025–2026 before adding inspection negotiations, appraisal delays, and the 15–20% chance a financed deal falls through at the last step.
Military sellers in Converse, Universal City, and Live Oak — communities built around JBSA — take cash offers at a discount regularly, because closing before shipping out is worth more than the last $15,000 on the price. That is a legitimate calculation, not a sign of a bad deal. We understand the tradeoff and we don’t pretend otherwise.
Foundation issues in San Antonio are different from the rest of Texas
The Balcones Escarpment runs through the city — the geological fault zone separating the limestone Hill Country to the west from the expansive clay soils to the east and south. Homes on the clay side, particularly in Southside neighborhoods along the I-37 corridor, parts of the Eastside, and older inner-west areas, move with the seasons. The clay expands when wet, contracts in drought, and the foundation moves with it.
This is different from the Blackland Prairie clay around Dallas and Houston — same mechanism, different geology, but the effect on older homes is the same: stair-step cracks, sticking doors, unlevel floors. A VA or FHA appraiser flags visible foundation distress. The loan dies.
TREC Form OP-H, Section 4 requires disclosure of known foundation movement. We know what that means. A foundation report with piers recommended is a number to factor in, not a reason to walk. For a house that needs $15,000–$30,000 in foundation repairs, a cash buyer is often the only realistic exit without putting money in first.
When you should not sell to us
If your house is in Alamo Heights, Stone Oak, or Terrell Hills — updated kitchen, recent roof, no deferred maintenance, nothing the inspection turns up — list it with an agent. The spread between a cash offer and a retail sale on a clean house in one of those pockets is real: $15,000 to $30,000 in a normal market, sometimes more. That is worth a 60-day listing if your timeline allows it.
Honestly: if you have equity, time, and a house that passes a financed inspection cleanly, an agent serves you better than we do. We’ll tell you the same thing on the phone.
A cash sale makes sense when one of these is true: the house needs work a financed buyer cannot get a mortgage on, there is a hard deadline (PCS orders, foreclosure date, probate court), or the certainty of close matters more than the last $20,000 on the price.
San Antonio and Bexar County: cash vs. listing

|---|---|---|
| Time to close | 7–14 days | 45–90 days |
| Agent commission | None | 5–6% of sale price |

| Foundation / damage OK | Yes, we price it in | Often blocks FHA/VA loans |
Situations we handle regularly in the San Antonio metro
| Situation | What that means for you |
|---|---|
| PCS orders / military relocation | Close before your report date. No managing a sale from overseas or another base. |
| Bexar County foreclosure notice | We close before the first-Tuesday sale if the notice is recent. Clock matters here. |
| Inherited house in San Antonio | Probate must clear first in most cases. We close the day letters testamentary are issued. See how inherited house sales work. |
| Foundation damage, roof issues | We buy as-is. No repair contingencies, no re-inspection after repairs. |
| Tenant in the property | We take it subject to an existing lease. You don’t have to remove them. |
| Back taxes owed to Bexar County | We can structure the close to pay the tax lien at settlement. See selling with back taxes. |
