Can I sell my share of inherited property in Texas?
Yes. Your fractional interest is your own legal interest, and you can sell it without the other heirs agreeing to sell theirs. We buy partial heir interests in Texas every week, pay you for your share, and work with the remaining family separately.

What this means for you.
You inherited a piece of Texas property along with siblings, cousins, or extended family. They won't agree to sell, won't return your calls, or want to argue about price. You're stuck. Here's the thing most people don't realize: you don't need their permission to sell your share. Your interest in the property is yours alone. You can transfer it. We buy it. The rest of the family gets handled separately, on a separate timeline, without you in the middle.
Do all heirs have to agree to sell inherited property in Texas?
No, not to sell your own share. Texas treats each heir's fractional interest as that heir's separate property. You can sell it without anyone else's signature. What heirs cannot do without agreement is sell the whole property. That is the wall most families hit with realtors, and it is exactly the situation we built our business around.
What this means for you: your siblings can say no for themselves, but they cannot say no for you.
Can one heir force the sale of the whole property?
Yes, through a partition action, a court process that divides or sells co-owned property. For inherited property, the Texas Heirs Property Act adds protections, including the right of other heirs to buy out the share first and a preference for fair-market sales. Partition works, but it is slow, public, and hard on families. Selling your share to a buyer like us avoids the courtroom entirely.
What this means for you: court is an option, not the only option, and usually not the first one to try.
What is my share of inherited property actually worth?
Start with the property's as-is value, multiply by your fractional interest, then adjust for what the share really is: a piece of a property you cannot sell whole, often with taxes owing or title work needed. Shares trade below their pro-rata slice for that reason. When we make an offer, we put the math in writing so you can see how we got there.
What this means for you: a written, explained number beats a guess from a cold caller.
Can an heir living on the property be evicted?
Not easily, and usually not at all by another co-heir. Every co-owner generally has the right to occupy the whole property, so one heir living there is not trespassing. A court can sort out occupancy and owelty in a partition case. We buy shares with a relative in residence all the time and handle that conversation ourselves, separately, with respect.
What this means for you: a sibling living in the house does not trap your share.
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.
