Real estate contracts in Texas are written to protect buyers — inspection periods, financing contingencies, option periods where a buyer can walk away for any reason. A cash sale to us eliminates all of those exit doors. Once we agree to terms, we close.

Medicaid Liens and Selling an Inherited Murphy 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 Murphy 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 Murphy 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 Murphy property that has a potential Medicaid estate recovery claim, contact us for a free evaluation — we'll work through the process with your attorney.
