We work with each heir individually — and in Texas, you don't always need to wait for the whole family to agree. We can buy your individual undivided interest outright, often with a simple Affidavit of Heirship instead of full probate. Or, when it's the better path, we handle the entire Texas probate for the estate, start to finish. Either way, you deal only with us, and you're paid in cash right away — without having to wait on any other heirs.

Evandale Properties is a family-owned business, and the reason this work matters to us is personal. Our own family once went through the long, draining process of settling an estate — heirs who couldn't agree, a house no one knew what to do with, taxes quietly falling behind, and not a single person in the process willing to explain our options in plain language.
Most of the families we talk to are standing in that same place right now. A disagreement among siblings. A property two states away. A notice in the mail that no one knows how to answer. The court process feels built to confuse, the deadlines feel impossible, and the people who do reach out often want something very different from what you actually need.
So we built Evandale Properties to be the kind of help we wish our family had — steady, honest, and clear about what we are and what we're not. We'll tell you when a different path serves you better than selling to us. And we're small enough that when you call, a real member of our family answers.
We aren't the right fit for everyone. But for the heirs who want a clean, dignified way out — without the lawyers, the infighting, and the years of waiting — that is exactly what we're here for.

How we help
Whatever's tangled, we can usually untangle it.
Some properties come with more than four walls — unclear ownership, an estate that was never settled, taxes quietly stacking up. And not every difficult property comes from a loss: sometimes the owner is very much alive, but the property is weighed down by a judgment, a lien, back taxes, or a title that was never cleaned up. Whatever's clouding it, we step in — we take your place, and every obligation tied to the property becomes ours instead of yours.
01
Undivided Interests & Heirship
When a property passes to several heirs, each owns an undivided interest in it. When relatives have lost touch or can't agree, we can buy your individual share outright — often by Affidavit of Heirship rather than full probate — so you're not held hostage to the rest of the family. We work with each heir individually and privately.
02
Property Preservation
When a home is behind on taxes or payments, it helps to understand your options early. We'll walk you through the paths still open to your family — including a simple, as-is sale to us — with no pressure to choose any of them.
03
Distressed & Vacant Homes
Houses in disrepair, long-vacant properties, homes that need far more work than anyone in the family can take on. We buy them exactly as they stand and give them a second life.
04
Land & Lots
Inherited a vacant lot or a parcel of land and unsure what it's worth or how to sell it? We know Texas land and zoning, and we'll talk you through your options and make a fair offer.
We regularly take these on — whether you inherited the property or own it yourself:
Inherited properties & properties in probate
Individual undivided or fractional interests
Distressed or vacant homes
Back taxes, liens, or pending tax foreclosure
Clouded or defective title
Homes with a living owner or surviving spouse
Always as-is. You never repair, clean out, or maintain anything. We buy the property exactly as it stands today — cluttered, dated, damaged, or vacant.
A Texas-specific option
We can buy your share alone — without the whole family agreeing.
When several heirs inherit a Texas property, each of you owns an undivided interest in it. You don't need everyone's permission to sell your own share — and you don't always need to open a full probate to do it.
In many cases, we can purchase your individual interest outright using an Affidavit of Heirship — a recorded document that establishes who the heirs are and clears the way for you to convey your share by deed. It's faster, quieter, and far less expensive than court probate, and it lets you move on while the rest of the estate is still unsettled.
If probate turns out to be the better path for your situation, we handle that too. We'll tell you honestly which route fits — and either way, the legal work is ours to carry.
How it works
Four steps, and most of the work is ours.
The hard part in the middle — the evaluation and the legal work, whether that's an Affidavit of Heirship or full probate — that's the part we carry for you.
1
Your part
Reach out
Tell us about the property and your situation. A short, unhurried conversation is all it takes to begin.
2
We handle this
We evaluate & offer
We review the property and make a fair cash offer for your undivided interest — usually within 24–48 hours. Your offer is discussed with you and no one else.
3
We handle this
We handle the legal path
Often that's a simple Affidavit of Heirship that lets us buy your interest directly — no full probate needed. When probate is the better route for the estate, our attorneys manage that instead, start to finish.
4
Your part
Get paid & move on
You're paid directly at closing. When we buy an individual interest by affidavit, closing can happen in a matter of weeks — no waiting on the rest of the family.
Who we are
Approachable people, serious capability.
Evandale Properties is the warm front door to real problem-solving. Behind our plain-spoken approach is a team that handles the genuinely hard parts of problem real estate — undivided interests, clouded or defective title, court judgments and creditor liens, heirs who've lost touch, estates that were never properly settled, and living owners who simply want out.
We work alongside licensed Texas attorneys who manage the heirship affidavits, probate, and title work, so the legal heavy lifting is handled for you from start to finish. And we take on properties others turn away — those carrying back taxes, liens, fractional or undivided interests, or title issues — because untangling them is simply what we do.
A note on what we are: Evandale Properties is not a law firm and does not provide legal advice. We work with retained attorneys who handle the legal process, and we always encourage you to consult your own attorney or advisor before selling.
Serving families statewide — we operate in all 254 counties across Texas: Harris, Dallas, Tarrant, Bexar, Travis, Collin, Denton, Hidalgo, El Paso, Fort Bend, Montgomery, Williamson, Cameron, Nueces, Brazoria, Bell, Galveston, Lubbock, Webb, Jefferson, and every other county across the state.

We handle the legal path
Whether it's an Affidavit of Heirship for your individual share or full probate for the estate, we manage the paperwork start to finish. You don't file anything or stand before a court.

Take the time you need to think it over, or to run it past your own attorney. We move as quickly as Texas’s process allows, and never rush you.

No repairs, no cleanup, no showings. The condition of the property is never your problem to solve.

There is nothing for you to pay us. What we agree on is what you receive at closing.

Questions families often ask
How long does the whole process take?
It depends on the path. When we buy your individual undivided interest using an Affidavit of Heirship, closing can happen in a matter of weeks. When the estate needs full probate, it takes longer — but we handle that step for you and keep you informed at every stage, so you're never left wondering where things stand.
Can you buy just my share if the other heirs aren't ready to sell?
Yes. In Texas, each heir owns an undivided interest in the property, and you can sell your own share without the others. We frequently buy a single heir's interest outright — often using an Affidavit of Heirship rather than full probate — so you can move on without waiting for the rest of the family to agree.
What is an Affidavit of Heirship, and is it safe?
It's a sworn, recorded document that establishes who the legal heirs of an estate are, which allows an heir to convey their interest by deed without opening a full probate. It's a well-established Texas tool, and our attorneys prepare it. Because it's a legal instrument, we always encourage you to have your own attorney review anything before you sign.
What if there are other heirs?
That's common — it's usually the reason families call us in the first place. We work with each heir individually, and everyone's privacy is respected. We can buy your interest on its own, or coordinate a sale of the whole property — whichever fits — so your family doesn't have to.
Do I have to pay anything or fix up the property?
No. We buy strictly as-is, and there are no fees or commissions to you. You don't repair, clean out, or maintain anything before the sale.
What if I'm the living owner, not an heir?
We work with living owners too. If you own a property — on your own or with a spouse — that's carrying liens, judgments, back taxes, or a clouded title, we can buy it as-is, take those problems on ourselves, and pay you a net amount at closing. You don't have to be an heir, and the property doesn't have to be part of an estate.
Prefer to talk to a real person?

No call centers, no scripts, no pressure. Just an honest conversation about your property and your options, whenever you're ready.
