How It Works — Selling Your House to ARV Venture Group

Selling your house to us is a 4-step process. One phone call gets it started. We see the house. We send you a cash offer in 24 hours. You pick the closing date. No agents, no fees, no repairs, no commissions. Even for inherited houses, title problems, pre-foreclosure, and houses other buyers walked away from.

The 4 steps in plain English

1

Step 1 — One phone call (~10 minutes)

Call (210) 761-3033 or email [email protected]. We ask you 5-10 questions about the property — where it is, what shape it's in, who owns it on paper, what's going on (probate, foreclosure, divorce, tired-landlord, anything). We listen. No pressure.

2

Step 2 — We see the house (24-48 hours)

Most of the time we drive by or send someone local. For some situations (out-of-state heir, hoarder house, vacant property) we assess remotely with photos and a video walkthrough you can do on your phone. Either way — you don't have to clean. You don't have to fix anything. You don't have to be there.

Step 3 — Cash offer in 24 hours

After we see the house, we send you a written cash offer within 24 hours. It includes the price, the closing date options, what we cover (everything — title, taxes, closing costs), and what you walk away with. No hidden math. No back-and-forth.

4

Step 4 — Close on your timeline (7 to 90 days)

If the title is clean, we close in 7 to 14 days at a title company near you. If there's title work to do (probate, missing heirs, back taxes), we handle that at our cost — usually closing in 30 to 90 days. You sign at the title company OR by mail if you're out of state. You leave with cash.

What you do NOT have to do

You do not have to clean the house. We handle cleanout.

You do not have to fix anything. We buy as-is.

You do not have to attend showings. There are no showings.

You do not have to wait for a bank to approve a buyer. We pay cash.

You do not have to pay agent commissions, closing costs, or repair credits. The cash offer is net to you.

You do not have to live near the property to sell it. We mail you the paperwork.

What we handle behind the scenes

Title search, title curative work, title insurance

Back taxes owed to the county

Coordination with probate attorneys

Communication with multiple heirs

Tenant situations (if rented)

Code-violation cleanup with the city (if any)

All closing costs and recording fees

Cleanout of whatever you leave behind

How long does it really take?

When it's fast (7-14 days)

Clear title. One owner. No probate. No back taxes. We sign, schedule the closing, you walk away with cash within 2 weeks.

When it takes longer (30-90 days)

Open probate. Multiple heirs. Title curative needed. Out-of-state heir. We handle the work. Sometimes we pay you monthly during the wait (interest-free) so you're not stuck without money.

When we say no

Sometimes the property won't work for us. Maybe the title fix would cost more than the deal can support. Maybe the numbers just don't line up. If that's the case, we tell you straight. No false hope. We may also refer you to someone else who can help.
