Selling a house in Dallas comes with a few state-specific rules
Dallas sales follow the same rules that apply across Texas. Here’s how a cash sale handles each one.
No attorney required
Texas does not require an attorney at closing. A title company handles escrow and recording, though either side can bring their own attorney if they want one.
Seller’s Disclosure Notice
Texas law (Property Code Section 5.008) requires sellers of most previously occupied homes to provide a written Seller’s Disclosure Notice covering known defects. Exemptions apply to foreclosures, estate sales, and a few other transfer types.
No state real estate transfer tax
Texas has no state real estate transfer tax, one of only about a dozen states without one. Sellers pay county recording fees, typically $25 to $50, plus their negotiated closing costs.
Strong Texas homestead protection
Texas homestead protection is famously strong, with no dollar cap on protected home equity. This protects your equity from most creditors, but it doesn’t stop your own mortgage lender from foreclosing if payments are missed. If that sounds like your situation, selling for cash is often faster than waiting out the foreclosure process.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need to make repairs first?
How fast can I close?
Closing timelines are flexible. Once you accept an offer, you pick a schedule that fits your situation, whether you’re ready to move quickly or need more time.
Is there any obligation to accept the offer?
No. Requesting and reviewing an offer is free, and you’re never obligated to accept it.
Are there any fees?
No. Our cash home buyers don’t charge commissions or fees, and they pay typical closing costs.
How long does it take to sell a house in Dallas right now?
Homes listed traditionally in Dallas are taking about 47 days to sell on average as of 2026, with some Dallas-Fort Worth counties taking 60 to 105 days. A cash sale bypasses that timeline, with most homeowners hearing back within 24 hours.
Do you buy houses in every Dallas neighborhood?
Yes. We buy houses across Dallas, including Oak Cliff, Lakewood, Uptown, Pleasant Grove, Garland and every neighborhood in between.
Does Texas have a transfer tax when I sell my house?
No. Texas is one of about a dozen states with no real estate transfer tax, so you’ll only see county recording fees, typically $25 to $50, on the closing statement.
Do I need a lawyer to sell my house in Dallas?
No. Texas doesn’t require an attorney at closing, and a title company handles escrow and recording. You’re welcome to hire your own attorney if you’d like one.
Does homestead protection stop my mortgage lender from foreclosing?
No. Homestead protection shields your equity from most general creditors, but it doesn’t apply to your own mortgage lender, property taxes, or a few other specific debts. If you’re behind on payments, selling for cash is often faster than waiting out the foreclosure process.
