Frequently Asked Questions
You probably have a few questions. That’s completely understandable. Below you’ll find answers to the questions we hear most often. If something isn’t covered here, feel free to contact us anytime. We’re always here and happy to help.
Q: Will you list my house on the MLS or buy it directly?
A: That’s a great question. We’re not agents, and we don’t list homes. Here at Sellers Home Buyers, we are direct cash home buyers: We buy houses Dallas that meet our criteria, using our own funds—so there’s no risk of financing falling through. Once we purchase your home, we may renovate and resell it or keep it as a rental property.
Q: How are you different from a real estate agent?
A: Real estate agents list properties and wait for the right buyer to come along. The agent markets the home to prospective buyers—a process that can take 4–6 months in many markets—and collects a percentage of the sale price if a buyer is found. That commission typically runs 3 to 6% of the sale price. On a $100,000 home, that’s $3,000 to $6,000 straight out of your pocket.
Agents are a great fit for sellers who can afford to wait months and are comfortable parting with a portion of their sale price in commissions. But that’s what sets us apart. We’re not agents—we’re direct cash buyers. Sellers Home Buyers purchases your home straight from you, with no middlemen and no hassle. Because we buy with cash, we can make a decision in just a couple of days—sometimes the very same day. We take on all the risk by using our own funds, handling any needed repairs, and managing the resale process ourselves.

Q: Do you pay fair prices for properties?
A: Many of the homes we purchase are below market value so we can resell them at a profit—we do look for a reasonable discount on the property. In our experience, most sellers aren’t focused on getting top dollar. What matters most to them is the reliability of a cash offer, a quick closing with no financing hurdles, and no time or money lost on repairs or agent commissions. If that aligns with what you’re looking for and you see the value in a fast, stress-free transaction, let’s find a solution that works for both of us. Our no-obligation process means you’re never pressured to accept—but knowing your options is always a smart move!

Q: How do you determine the price to offer on my house?
A: Great question, and we believe in full transparency. Our process is simple and straightforward. We look at the property’s location, the repairs needed, its current condition, and the value of comparable homes recently sold in the area. By weighing all of these factors together, we arrive at a fair offer that works for both you and for us.
Q: Are there any fees or commissions to work with you?
A: This is one of the biggest ways we stand apart from traditional home sales: there are NO fees or commissions when you sell directly to Sellers Home Buyers, unlike listing fees where up to 6% can come out of your pocket. We’ll present you with a straightforward offer and, if it’s a good fit, we’ll buy your home with no hassle and no hidden costs. We’ll often cover the closing costs, too! We make our money after handling repairs and reselling—we carry the risk, not you. Once we close, the property and its obligations become ours, and you walk away with cash in hand and a fresh start.
Q: Is there any obligation when I submit my information?
A: Absolutely none. Once you share a few details about your property, we’ll review everything, possibly reach out to learn a bit more, and present you with a fair all-cash offer. From there, the decision is entirely yours. We’re here to give you options and a clear path forward—not pressure. You choose what’s right for you.
