Why Texas families call Mavro

Texas has some of the most heir-friendly transfer laws in the country — but most families never hear about them until taxes pile up or a foreclosure notice arrives. We know the county courthouses, the title companies, and the paperwork. We handle the curative title work at our cost, and you get paid in days, not months.

Plain-English Guide

Texas Inheritance Law, in Plain English

No Will? You Can Often Skip Probate Entirely

Texas allows heirs to establish ownership by recording an affidavit of heirship with the county clerk, signed by two disinterested witnesses. For many families it's the fastest, least expensive way to make an inherited property sellable. We prepare and file these at our cost.

There's a Will? Texas Has a Shortcut Too

Texas is one of the few states with muniment of title probate — if there's a valid will and no unpaid estate debts (other than a mortgage), the court can transfer the property directly. No executor, no drawn-out administration.

Co-Heir Protections Are Real Here

Texas adopted the Uniform Partition of Heirs' Property Act (Property Code Ch. 23A), giving family co-owners appraisal and buyout rights in partition suits. Our approach: we buy individual undivided interests directly, or help coordinate a voluntary family sale.

Tax-Delinquent? The Texas Clock Moves Fast

Once a Texas county files a tax foreclosure suit, the timeline to auction can be short — and the right to redeem after a tax sale is limited. Selling before the auction date almost always puts more money in heirs' pockets. We pay off the taxes at closing.

Texas Heir Questions, Answered

Can I sell an inherited house in Texas without probate?

Often, yes. When there's no will, a recorded affidavit of heirship can establish ownership without opening probate. Mavro Properties prepares and files this paperwork at our cost as part of the purchase.

Do all heirs in Texas have to agree before a sale?

To sell the entire property, yes. But you can sell your own undivided interest without the other heirs' consent — and we buy individual heir interests directly, confidentially, with no obligation on your family members.

Who pays the back taxes, liens, and title costs?

We do. Delinquent property taxes, liens, curative title work, and closing costs are paid by Mavro Properties at closing. Our offer is what you actually receive.

What parts of Texas do you buy in?

Our focus counties are Harris, Brazoria, Brazos, Collin, Comal, Dallas, Galveston, Grimes, Kaufman, Liberty, Montgomery, Tarrant, and Travis — covering Houston, Dallas–Fort Worth, Austin, and the San Antonio and Bryan–College Station areas — plus all of East Texas from the Oklahoma border down to the Gulf.

How fast can we close in Texas?

Once the paperwork is signed, most sellers receive funds within 1–4 days by wire, cashier's check, or Zelle. Complex heirship situations can take longer — we'll give you an honest timeline up front.
