Real Corpus Christi story
She lived four hours away and was done with the house. We took it off her hands, junk and all.
The same Corpus Christi home, before and after.
The situation
The owner lived about four hours away and was going through a hard time in her own life. The house had become one more weight she didn't have the energy to carry. It sat vacant and full of junk a past tenant had left behind. The paint was worn, the fence was falling apart, and the siding was breaking down. Inside, the kitchen and both bathrooms were dated, the flooring was damaged, and the roof, heating and cooling, plumbing, and wiring all needed work.
On top of all that, there were overdue property taxes and money still owed on the house. From four hours away, with everything else she was dealing with, it felt like too much. She had checked out. What she wanted was simple: to be done with it, fast and clean, without ever having to drive back or lift a finger.
How we helped
There was no pressure and no rush. After that first call, we stayed in touch for nearly two years, on her timeline, until she was ready. When she was, we made it easy. We bought the house exactly as it was — junk and all — so she had nothing to clean out and nothing to fix. We took care of the overdue property taxes and the money owed on the house, so all of that was handled for her.
She never had to drive back, sort through anything, or worry about who was owed what. We carried the whole thing, and we closed about a month after we reached the agreement.
Start to finish
What it meant for them
She walked away with real peace of mind, never having to touch the house, the junk, or the money owed again.
What happened after
Then we got to work with local contractors. We cleared out everything left behind, put in fresh paint and new flooring throughout, fully renovated the kitchen, and upgraded both bathrooms. We repaired the roof, updated the systems, put on new siding, and rebuilt the fencing from the ground up. A vacant, junk-filled house that nobody could take care of became a clean, ready home for a new family to move into — and the neighborhood got a little brighter.
