Sell My House Fast in Plano, TX
Ready Estates buys houses in Plano for cash. Plano is a mature suburb with strong schools and a deep pool of ordinary buyers, so an updated house in good condition will usually do better on the open market. The houses that fit a direct cash sale here are different: a 1970s or 1980s ranch in east Plano that has never been renovated, an inherited house the family does not want to remodel, a rental with tenants in place, or a sale with a deadline attached to it.
If your Plano house needs work, sits inside an estate, or has to be sold on a schedule, this page explains how selling it directly works and what it honestly trades away.

Selling in Plano
Plano sits in two counties. Most of the city is in Collin County, and the southern part of the city is in Dallas County. That split matters when a house is tied up in legal process. Probate for a Plano estate is handled in the probate courts of the county where the property and the estate belong, which means Collin County courts in McKinney for most of Plano and Dallas County courts for the southern part. In Texas, foreclosure auctions for homes in a county are held on the first Tuesday of the month at that county courthouse, so a Plano house in Collin County would be sold at the courthouse in McKinney if it ever reached auction.
The housing stock splits by era. East Plano and the neighborhoods around Plano Senior High School are full of one story ranch homes from the 1970s and 1980s, many still with original kitchens, original bathrooms, and aging cast iron plumbing. West Plano is newer and more expensive, with neighborhoods like Willow Bend built around larger lots. Downtown Plano and the Old Towne area hold the oldest houses in the city. A house from the older stock can be perfectly solid and still need extensive updating before a retail buyer with a mortgage can compete for it. That gap between solid and updated is where a cash sale usually enters the conversation.
The situations we buy in
Inherited houses
An inherited Plano house often comes with distance, siblings, and a lifetime of belongings. We make one offer for the house as it stands and handle the cleanout after closing.
Probate and estates
When a house sits inside an estate, the family usually wants it sold, the proceeds divided, and the estate closed. We buy estate houses as they sit, contents and all, once the estate has authority to sell.
Facing foreclosure
In Texas, a foreclosure can move from a missed payment notice to a courthouse auction in a matter of weeks once the notices start. A completed sale before the auction date pays the loan off at closing. Read the timeline before you decide anything, and talk to your servicer either way. Free counseling from a HUD approved housing counselor is available at (800) 569-4287.
Rentals and tired landlords
We buy occupied rentals, including houses with non paying tenants, expired leases, and years of deferred maintenance.
Houses that need major work
We buy houses with foundation movement, old roofs, cast-iron plumbing, fire damage, and long vacancies. If a buyer's lender would refuse it, we are probably the right call.
Divorce and relocation
When the house is the last asset to settle, or a move date is fixed, a direct sale with a chosen closing date removes the listing process from an already full plate.
How it works
1. Tell us about the house
Send the address through the form or call (469) 248-7237. We ask a few questions about the condition, the timeline, and anything attached to the sale, like an estate or a tenant.
2. Get one written offer
We look at recent sales of similar Plano homes, estimate the repair cost honestly, and put a single cash number in writing. There is no obligation and no fee.
3. Close on your date
If the offer works, we close at a local title company on a date you pick, often in a few weeks when title is clear, and later if an estate or your move needs more time.
How the offer is calculated
We start with what your house would likely sell for after repairs, based on recent sales of comparable homes in your part of Plano. From that number we subtract the cost of the repairs and updates the house needs, the costs of holding and reselling it, and a margin that keeps us in business. What is left is the offer. We will walk through the comparable sales and the repair estimate with you, line by line, so you can check the math against a listing estimate or any other offer you get. A cash offer will not beat a full retail price on an updated house, and we will say so if yours is one of those.
Questions Plano sellers ask
My house is in the Dallas County part of Plano. Does that change anything?
It changes the paperwork, not the offer process. Deed records, tax records, probate, and any foreclosure process follow the county the house sits in, so a south Plano house runs through Dallas County while most of the city runs through Collin County. We work with both, and the title company sorts out which records apply before closing.
Will you buy an older east Plano house that has never been updated?
Yes. We buy original condition ranch homes from the 1970s and 1980s. You do not need to renovate, stage, or clean the house out first, and the offer accounts for the updating the house needs instead of asking you to fund it.
Do I have to pay a commission or closing costs?
No. We are buyers, not realtors, so there is no agent commission on a sale to us, and we cover the standard closing costs. The number in the written offer is the number the math starts from at the closing table.
