Frequently Asked Questions

Cash Home Sale FAQs for Arlington TX & DFW Sellers

Answers to the most common questions homeowners ask before selling their house to BEVA Homes. From process and timeline to pricing, taxes, and difficult situations.

How It Works

How does selling my house to BEVA Homes work?

Selling a house to BEVA Homes takes four steps. You send us the address and basic details. We call you within a few hours to talk through the property. We put a written, no-obligation cash offer in your hands, usually within 24 to 48 hours. If you accept, we close at a DFW title company on the date you choose, often within 7 to 14 days. No repairs, no commissions, no showings.

How fast can BEVA Homes close on my Arlington TX house?

BEVA Homes can close on an Arlington TX house in as little as 7 days. If you need longer, you pick the date, even 60 to 90 days out. We close at a local Tarrant County title company and pay all closing costs ourselves, which removes the lender approval and appraisal delays that stretch a traditional Arlington sale to 30 or 60 days.

Do I need to make any repairs before selling to BEVA Homes?

No. BEVA Homes buys houses across Dallas-Fort Worth in any condition, as-is. You do not fix the roof, the foundation, the plumbing, the paint or the carpet. We have bought DFW homes with active leaks, foundation movement from Texas clay soil, fire damage, mold, hoarder conditions and half-finished renovations. Leave what you do not want and we handle it after closing.

Do I need to clean my house before BEVA Homes buys it?

No cleaning is required. Take what you want to keep and leave everything else. BEVA Homes has bought DFW houses with furniture, belongings, trash and even pets left behind, and our team handles the entire clean-out after closing at our own cost. Not having to empty a house is one of the most common reasons DFW sellers choose us over a traditional listing.

How long does it take to get a cash offer from BEVA Homes?

Usually 24 to 48 hours from your first call. BEVA Homes talks with you about the property and, when it helps, does a quick walk-through or video tour of the house anywhere in Dallas-Fort Worth. Then we put a written offer in your hands with the number spelled out. There is no obligation to accept it and no pressure if you do not.

Pricing & Money

How much will I get when I sell to BEVA Homes?

BEVA Homes cash offers are typically 70 to 85 percent of a DFW home's current market value, depending on condition and the repairs it needs. Against that you save the 6 percent agent commission, 2 to 4 percent in closing costs, the repair bill, and the mortgage, taxes and insurance you pay while the house sits listed for three to six months. For many sellers the net is close, and it arrives in weeks instead of months.

How much do cash home buyers pay in DFW? The full breakdown, with the arithmetic shown.

Why is BEVA Homes' offer lower than my asking price?

BEVA Homes buys below market, renovates the house, then resells or rents it here in Dallas-Fort Worth. The gap covers renovation cost, the months we carry the property, and a margin. We say so plainly rather than dressing it up. What you get in exchange is cash in weeks, no repair spending, no showings, no agent commission, and no risk of a buyer's financing collapsing two weeks before closing.

Are there any fees or commissions when I sell to BEVA Homes?

None. BEVA Homes charges no commission, which saves the 6 percent you would pay an agent, and no service or administrative fees of any kind. We also pay the closing costs at the title company ourselves. The number written on the BEVA Homes offer is the number you walk away with at the closing table on a DFW property.

Who pays the closing costs when I sell to BEVA Homes?

BEVA Homes pays 100 percent of the closing costs on a Dallas-Fort Worth sale. Title insurance, escrow fees, document preparation and county recording fees all come out of our side, not yours. The seller brings nothing to the table. On a typical DFW sale those costs run 2 to 4 percent of the price, so this is real money rather than a technicality.

How soon will I get paid after closing?

The same day. Once you sign at the DFW title company, BEVA Homes has already funded the file, and the title company wires your proceeds to your bank account or hands you a cashier's check that day. Most banks show the wire within one to two hours. There is no waiting on a buyer's lender, because there is no lender involved.

Trust & Legitimacy

Is BEVA Homes a legitimate company?

Yes. BEVA Homes is a family-owned cash home buyer headquartered at 2400 Garden Park Ct, Arlington, TX 76013, with more than 30 years of combined real estate experience on the team. We are a registered Texas business, we close through licensed Texas title companies, and we use standard Texas real estate contracts. You can verify us by calling (817) 330-4663 or coming to the Arlington office in person.

How do I know BEVA Homes won't lowball me?

Every BEVA Homes offer comes in writing with no obligation, so you can take it to an agent for a second opinion, pull a free comparative market analysis, or check it against Zillow and Redfin before you decide. We price from real comparable sales in your DFW neighborhood, not a formula. We would rather lose a deal than talk someone into one they regret.

What's the catch with companies that buy houses for cash?

The honest answer is that cash buyers, BEVA Homes included, pay below full retail value. That is the trade. In return you get a 7 to 14 day close, no repairs, no commission, no fees, no showings, no inspection objections and no buyer financing falling apart. For a DFW seller in a hurry, or with a house that will not pass a lender's appraisal, that trade usually comes out ahead.

Is BEVA Homes a verified, registered Texas business?

Yes. BEVA Homes is a registered Texas LLC with its office in Arlington, TX, and you can confirm the registration yourself through the Texas Secretary of State's public business search. We close every purchase through a licensed Texas title company and sign standard Texas real estate contracts, so an independent third party handles the money and the deed on every DFW sale.

Can I see reviews from past BEVA Homes sellers?

Yes. BEVA Homes reviews are public on our Google Business Profile, and we will connect you directly with people in your part of Dallas-Fort Worth who have sold to us so you can ask them whatever you want without us in the room. We would rather you talk to a past seller than take our word for it.

Service Area

What cities does BEVA Homes buy houses in?

BEVA Homes buys houses across the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex, including Arlington, Fort Worth, Dallas, Grand Prairie, Garland, Irving, Mesquite, Mansfield, Burleson, Cleburne, Cedar Hill, Lancaster, and the Dallas neighborhoods of Oak Cliff and South Dallas. We also buy in Forest Hill, Hurst, Bedford, Waxahachie, Carrollton, Duncanville, McKinney, Kennedale and Watauga. If your city is not on that list, call (817) 330-4663 and ask.

Does BEVA Homes buy houses in Fort Worth TX?

Yes. Fort Worth is one of the most active markets BEVA Homes buys in, and we have bought homes across Tarrant County, from the older pre-1970 housing stock on the east and south sides to newer builds further out. We close at a Fort Worth title company on the date you choose and pay the closing costs ourselves.

Does BEVA Homes buy houses in Dallas TX?

Yes. BEVA Homes buys throughout Dallas and Dallas County, including Oak Cliff, South Dallas, East Dallas, Lake Highlands and Pleasant Grove, plus the southern suburbs of Cedar Hill and Lancaster. Older Dallas housing is exactly what we are built for, because a house that will not pass a lender's appraisal is still a straightforward cash purchase for us.

Does BEVA Homes buy houses in Grand Prairie TX?

Yes. BEVA Homes buys regularly in Grand Prairie, which straddles both Dallas and Tarrant Counties. We work with title companies in both, so whichever side of the county line your house sits on, the process and the timeline are the same: a written offer in 24 to 48 hours, an as-is purchase, and closing costs paid by us.

Do you only buy houses in the DFW area?

Dallas-Fort Worth is where BEVA Homes buys, and that is deliberate. Our team lives here, so we can price a house in Arlington or Oak Cliff from what actually sold on that street rather than from a model. We look at properties just outside the metro case by case, but if it is far outside DFW we will tell you honestly that a local buyer will serve you better.

Specific Situations

Can BEVA Homes buy my inherited house?

Yes, and inherited property is one of the most common purchases BEVA Homes makes in Dallas-Fort Worth. We work with executors during and after probate, deal with out-of-state heirs, and coordinate several siblings on one sale so nobody has to fly in. Inherited houses usually come with deferred maintenance, shared ownership and hard family conversations, and we handle all three without adding to them.

Can I sell my house to BEVA Homes during a divorce?

Yes. BEVA Homes has helped many DFW homeowners sell during a divorce. We work with both parties' attorneys, split the proceeds at the title company exactly as your agreement specifies, and keep the sale off the open market. There are no showings and no sign in the yard, which matters when neither of you wants the neighborhood following the process.

Can BEVA Homes buy my house if it's in foreclosure?

Yes, if you reach us before the auction date. BEVA Homes has bought DFW houses out of foreclosure by closing fast enough to pay the lender off first. Texas foreclosure sales run on a fixed calendar and are held on the first Tuesday of the month, so timing is everything. Call (817) 330-4663 as early as you can, and the remaining equity goes to you rather than to the bank.

Can I sell my house to BEVA Homes if I owe more than it's worth?

Sometimes, yes. BEVA Homes has completed short sales in DFW where we worked with the lender to accept less than the full mortgage balance. It takes lender cooperation and runs longer than a normal cash purchase, so it is not a fast fix. But it can end the loan without a foreclosure on your record. Call us with the payoff figure and we will tell you straight whether it works.

Selling when you owe more than the house is worth: short sales, explained plainly.

Will BEVA Homes buy a house with tenants in it?

Yes. BEVA Homes buys DFW rental property with tenants still in place, and you do not have to evict anyone or wait out a lease first. We take the property subject to the existing lease, or work with you on a vacancy date if that suits you better. For a landlord who is done being a landlord, that removes the hardest part of selling.

Selling a rental property with tenants still in it: leases, deposits and problem tenancies.

Can BEVA Homes buy my house with tax liens or other liens on it?

Yes. BEVA Homes has closed on DFW houses carrying property tax liens, HOA liens, judgment liens, mechanic's liens and old unreleased mortgages. The title company runs the search, and the liens are paid or released out of the sale proceeds at closing rather than out of your pocket beforehand. Liens that look like they kill a sale usually just come off the top of it.

Will BEVA Homes buy my fixer-upper or condemned property?

Yes, and those are the houses BEVA Homes actively looks for across Dallas-Fort Worth. Foundation movement, roof damage, fire and water damage, mold, code violations, unpermitted additions, a red tag from the city. The worse the condition, the better a cash buyer fits, because a traditional buyer needs a mortgage and no lender will approve a loan on a house in that shape.

Can BEVA Homes buy my house if I'm relocating for work?

Yes. Job relocation is one of the most common reasons people call BEVA Homes. We close on your date, whether that is 7 days because you start Monday, or 60 days because you want to leave from your own house. Either way you avoid keeping a DFW property show-ready from another state, and you avoid it sitting empty and insured as a vacant home.

Comparison & Decision

Should I sell to BEVA Homes or list with a real estate agent?

It depends on the house and the timeline. List with a DFW agent if the house is in good condition, you can wait three to six months, and you want to chase the top price. Sell to BEVA Homes if you need speed, the house needs work, you want a certain close with no financing contingency, or you want it handled privately. After commission, repairs and holding costs the net is often close; the difference is that ours is measured in weeks.

How is BEVA Homes different from Opendoor, Offerpad, or other iBuyers?

Three things. BEVA Homes is local, so Manny and Lisa look at your DFW house themselves rather than an algorithm pricing it from another state. We buy any condition, including the distressed and non-standard properties iBuyers decline outright. And we are a family business, so you deal with the same two people from the first call to the closing table. iBuyers often quote a higher headline number then take 5 to 7 percent in service fees, which is where the difference goes.
