Facing Foreclosure
Facing Foreclosure in Central Texas?
If you're behind on mortgage payments with an auction date coming up, I buy houses for cash before the sale date, paying off your loan balance at closing so you walk away with your equity instead of losing the house at the courthouse steps. No repairs, no appraisal, and I can move faster than a traditional sale.
Why Selling Before the Auction Date Matters
Once a notice of default or notice of trustee's sale sets an auction date, the clock is running whether you're ready or not. If the sale goes through, the lender is paid from the proceeds and whatever equity you've built can be gone, and reclaiming any surplus funds afterward is a slow, uncertain process. A traditional listing assumes months you may not have: an agent, showings, repairs, and a buyer who still needs bank financing to close.
Selling before your sale date is a way to control the outcome instead of waiting to see what happens at the courthouse steps. I buy the house for cash, and at closing your loan balance is paid off directly, so the sale itself is what resolves the foreclosure, not a promise. Whatever equity is left after payoff is yours. This isn't legal or financial advice, and if you want to understand every option available to you, a HUD-approved housing counselor or a real estate attorney can walk through those with you. I'm simply a fast, certain cash-sale option if that's the path that makes sense.
How It Works
- Call or text me with the address and the sale date on your notice. I'll tell you on that call whether I need anything else before I can make an offer.
- I make a cash offer based on the house as it sits today and your loan payoff, no repairs or showings required, and no walkthrough needed before a number.
- We close with our own title company and our own cash, on a timeline built around your auction date, not the 30 to 45 days a traditional sale would take.

I'm Jude Leonard, a licensed Central Texas real estate broker who spent years as a carpenter and an Austin EMS medic before I started buying houses myself. I work every transaction personally and close with our own cash and our own title company, so when I make you an offer, there's no bank underwriting or financing contingency standing between you and closing day.
