Do you buy houses in Kilgore?
Yes. We buy houses in Kilgore. We look at the house as it sits. You do not repair it, clean it, or hold showings.
Kilgore is not the same city as Longview. It is the next town south, on the Gregg and Rusk county line. The ZIP we focus on is 75662. Downtown Kilgore is the old oil field people call the World's Richest Acre. We are based in Keithville, Louisiana, and we drive to the house. Charlie takes the seller calls at (318) 714-4321 and usually calls back the same day.
Longview has its own page, we buy houses in Longview. The regional page is East Texas. This page is Kilgore.
Want a cash offer, or to have us take over the payments? Call or text Charlie at (318) 714-4321, or Get My Cash Offer. Cash is not promised on every house. No fee, no obligation.
Where in Kilgore we look
- Downtown and the World's Richest Acre. The older blocks in the center of town, including houses on the streets just off that district.
- The Gregg County side. The part of Kilgore that sits in Gregg County, toward Longview.
- The Rusk County side. The part of the city that sits in Rusk County, toward Henderson and Overton.
- Gladewater and Overton. Those are separate towns. Gladewater is north, toward the Upshur County line. Overton is south, in Rusk County. Send the address. We will say whether we can look at the house. This page does not add every Rusk County town.
If your street is not named here, ask. Tell us the county if a tax bill or a sale notice already says it.
Which courthouse, Gregg or Rusk
A Texas deed-of-trust sale is held in the county where the land sits. Texas Property Code section 51.002 says the sale is a public auction on the first Tuesday of the month, between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., unless that Tuesday is January 1 or July 4, in which case it is the first Wednesday. Notice is generally given at least 21 days ahead. The full plain-language version is on before a trustee sale in East Texas.
For a Kilgore house the notice is the map:
- Land in Gregg County. The sale is at the Gregg County Courthouse, 101 East Methvin Street, Longview, in the area the commissioners court has designated. See the Longview page.
- Land in Rusk County. The sale is at the Rusk County courthouse in Henderson, not in Longview. Your notice names the door.
Do not use a Harrison County Tuesday in Marshall, or a Louisiana Wednesday, for a Kilgore house. A property-tax sale is a different calendar. The notice says which one you are in.
Start with the free options. Ask the servicer, in writing, about catching up or a workout. Talk with a HUD-approved counselor from the HUD list and with a Texas attorney if you do not know which county the lot is in. Selling is one more option. We do not stop a foreclosure, and we do not negotiate with your lender.
We buy houses. We are a home buyer, not a law firm, a lender, or a housing counselor. We charge homeowners no fee. Cash is not promised on every house.
How selling a Kilgore house to us works
- Call or send the form. Tell us the address and the county if you know it. Call or text Charlie at (318) 714-4321.
- We look at the house as it sits.
- We put a choice in writing. Sometimes that is cash. Sometimes it is taking over the payments. You can say no.
- A title company closes it on a date you pick, if the paperwork can be ready.
When we buy, there is no commission and no fee on your side. Who pays closing costs is in the written offer. We do not promise to pay all of them, and we do not promise a number of days.
