The Process: From Property Info to Cash in Hand
Request a Free Cash Offer
Contact us and share the basics: where the property is, what condition it's in, and what you need out of the sale. We take it from there.
Review the Offer — No Obligation
We look at what homes in your area have actually sold for, what condition yours is in, and what it'll cost us to renovate. That drives the number we bring you, usually the same day.
Pick Your Closing Date and Get Paid
Set a closing date that fits your life. Most sellers land somewhere between two and three weeks, but we're flexible.
Some Combine sellers come to us after spending months on the market with no results. Others call us first because they already know a retail listing isn't the right fit. Either way, we're here with a fair number and a process that actually closes.
Our process is designed to give Combine sellers a clear decision, not a complicated one. You get one offer, explained clearly, with no hidden terms. You accept or you don't. If you don't, there's no hard sell. If you do, we close when and where we said we would.

Medicaid Liens and Selling an Inherited Combine Property
Texas participates in the federal Medicaid estate recovery program, which requires the state to seek reimbursement for Medicaid costs paid on behalf of recipients who were 55 or older when they received benefits. After a Medicaid recipient passes away, the Texas Health and Human Services Commission can file a claim against the recipient's estate — including real property — to recover those costs.
For heirs who inherit a Combine property from a parent or grandparent who received Medicaid benefits, this means the estate may owe HHSC before the property can be cleanly distributed to heirs. The claim amount is based on what Medicaid paid, capped at the value of the estate assets. If the property is sold, the HHSC claim is paid from the proceeds at closing like any other lien.
Exceptions and How We Handle Medicaid Lien Properties
Texas Medicaid estate recovery has exceptions — surviving spouses, minor children, and disabled heirs may qualify for hardship waivers or deferrals. An estate attorney can advise on whether a formal challenge to the HHSC claim is appropriate in your situation and what that process looks like.
If the HHSC claim doesn't exceed the property's equity, the sale proceeds pay it off at closing and heirs receive what remains. We've handled Combine property sales with Medicaid liens and know how to coordinate with HHSC, the estate attorney, and the title company to get the property sold cleanly. If you've inherited a Combine property that has a potential Medicaid estate recovery claim, contact us for a free evaluation — we'll work through the process with your attorney.
