Common heir-property problems in Texas and what to do about them

Heir property in Texas usually means several relatives co-own the same parcel, often without a clean deed or a probate ever filed. Common problems include disagreeing heirs, missing or unreachable family, accruing taxes, and unclear ownership shares. The Texas Heirs Property Act gives co-heirs protections that didn't exist a few years ago.

What this means for you.

Heir property is one of the most common situations we work on in Texas. A property passes to several family members at once. Some live in state, some don't. Nobody opens probate. Years go by. The taxes pile up. Someone wants to sell and someone else won't sign. This is normal. There are real, practical paths forward, including selling your individual share without the rest of the family's agreement.

Three things people worry about.

This sounds too easy. What's the catch?

There isn't one. We make money by buying properties most other operators can't or won't close on. Our offer is lower than retail because we take on the title work, the back taxes, and the family-coordination piece. You're paying for that with price, not with cash out of pocket.

What if my family finds out I sold my share?

They might, and that's their right. But they don't have to agree to it, and they don't have a veto over it. Your share is yours. We don't reach out to other heirs about your sale unless you want us to coordinate.

How do I know your offer is fair?

You compare it to any other offer you receive. We put the number in writing and we don't pressure you to decide. Take it to a CPA, a friend, another buyer. The offer stays good while you think.

Have a property in mind? Tell us about it.

We'll look at the title, the taxes, and the situation, then call you back within 24 hours. No pressure.
