Inherited property
A property you did not plan for, often shared between siblings, sometimes hundreds of miles away. We work directly with heirs and probate attorneys without forcing repairs, showings, or out-of-state travel.
Sell your house fast for cash in Austin. Direct purchase from owners across Greater Austin — written cash offer within 48 hours, and you choose the closing date. No commissions, no fees, no repair asks.
A few details, a few minutes, no obligation. We follow up with a written offer within 48 hours of submission.
We built our process around the things sellers tell us are missing from the rest of the industry: clarity, follow-through, and respect for your time.
Share the address and a few details about the home and your situation. The form takes under two minutes. There is no obligation and no credit check.
We research comparable sales, condition, and any encumbrances. If we have questions, we will call.
We present the offer in plain language. Purchase price, who pays which costs, and the proposed timeline.
We close at a Texas title company on the date that works for you. If you need additional time in the home after closing, we can structure that too.
Three numbers we are willing to put in writing. The rest we say in person.
We are built for the properties and circumstances that traditional listings handle poorly. If your situation is below, or close to it, we can help.
A property you did not plan for, often shared between siblings, sometimes hundreds of miles away. We work directly with heirs and probate attorneys without forcing repairs, showings, or out-of-state travel.
Probate timelines, court approvals, and family dynamics each add complexity. We coordinate with probate counsel and structure a purchase that works once the estate is positioned to sell.
When a foreclosure date is approaching, time and clarity matter. We assess your specific situation, walk you through realistic options, and if a sale makes sense, present terms in plain language.
Difficult tenants, deferred maintenance, or simply the desire to exit the rental business. We purchase tenant-occupied properties and properties that need work, without requiring you to deliver a vacant or repaired home.
Vacant, neglected, or overfilled properties are part of our normal scope. We do not require cleanouts, staging, or photographs. Leave behind whatever you do not wish to keep.
The conversation still costs you nothing. Divorce, code violations, relocation, repairs you cannot afford. Tell us what you are working with.
Tell Us About ItWe purchase residential property across the City of Austin, Travis County, and the surrounding Austin-Round Rock MSA. Inside the central core, along the MoPac and I-35 corridors, the Hill Country suburbs to the west, and the fast-growing Williamson and Hays county towns at the metro edge.

Slagle Investments operates as a principal buyer under Texas Property Code §§ 5.0205 and 5.086 — we are not a licensed real estate broker. The Texas Real Estate Commission regulates licensed brokers, not real estate investors. Austin market context comes from National Association of Realtors existing-home sales data.

A direct cash transaction in Austin funds as fast as the title company can clear title. The bottleneck is title work — payoffs, lien releases, and deed prep — not financing. We do not wait on a lender, an appraisal, or an underwriter. The closing date is yours to choose: quickly if you need speed, or take the time you need.
The City of Austin, all of Travis County, and the surrounding Austin-Round Rock MSA: Williamson, Hays, Bastrop, and Caldwell counties. Inside the central core, along the MoPac and I-35 corridors, the Hill Country suburbs to the west, and the Williamson and Hays county towns at the metro edge. If your property is on the edge of that footprint, submit it anyway.
We pull comparable recent sales in the immediate Austin submarket, adjust for the condition of the property, any required work, and the holding and transaction costs we will incur. Austin submarkets vary widely, so we underwrite your specific zip code rather than the metro as a whole. If you want, we will walk you through the math when we present the offer.
No. There are no agent commissions when you sell directly to us, and we do not charge listing, marketing, or service fees. Customary closing costs are addressed inside the offer and disclosed before signing.
Yes. We purchase as-is in any condition, including homes with deferred maintenance, fire or water damage, foundation movement, code violations, and properties that have been vacant or neglected. You do not need to repair, clean, or stage anything.
It can. Austin ran hot through 2022 and then corrected, and inventory and days on market now vary sharply by submarket. We factor the current absorption rate in your specific area into the offer, because the resale exit risk in a 7-month submarket is not the same as in a 2.5-month one. We will quote a real number for current conditions, not last year’s.
Yes. The Central Texas clay-soil belt produces a higher share of post-tensioned slab movement and root-driven foundation issues, and it is a common reason retail buyers walk away. We underwrite with foundation condition, prior repair history, and engineer reports factored in, and we will quote a real number whether the slab is sound or actively moving.
Yes. We purchase tenant-occupied properties without requiring you to deliver a vacant home, and we will normally take assignment of the lease and security deposit at closing. We will discuss the lease terms and timeline that work for everyone before closing.
Possibly. In most transactions we close as the buyer of record. In some, we may assign our equitable interest in the contract to a vetted investor partner who closes in our place. Texas Property Code §§ 5.0205 and 5.086 require us to disclose this in writing before any assignment is made. Your purchase price and timeline do not change.
If a direct sale is the right move for your situation, we will tell you. If it is not, we will tell you that too.
