Do you buy houses in Minden?
Yes. We buy houses in Minden and across Webster Parish. We look at the house as it sits, talk through the numbers with you and put the offer in writing. You do not repair, clean or paint anything first.
Minden is the parish seat of Webster Parish, and it sits on Interstate 20 east of Shreveport and Bossier City. We are based in Keithville, in Caddo Parish. We drive to Minden to see houses, so you do not have to come to us. Charlie takes the seller calls and usually calls back the same day.
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.
Which areas around Minden do you buy in?
We buy in town and out of town. Here are some of the places where we buy houses in Webster Parish.
- Minden: houses in town, houses near the courthouse and the downtown square, and houses along the main roads in and out of town.
- Close to Minden: Dixie Inn, Sibley, Heflin, Dubberly and the country roads around them.
- South and west toward Lake Bistineau: Doyline and the lake-side roads.
- North in the parish: Springhill, Cullen, Sarepta and Cotton Valley. See our page for Springhill.
Land with a house on it, a house on a few acres, and a mobile home on a lot are all things we can look at. Tell us what you have.
What condition can the house be in?
Any condition. A house with a bad roof, a house that has sat empty, or a house with a back room full of someone's belongings can be sold to us as it is. You do not clean it out, and what you do not want can stay.
A house in rough shape generally brings a lower offer than one in good shape. If yours is in good condition and you have time, a Realtor listing may be worth a look. We will tell you if we think so.
Webster Parish sheriff's sales
Webster Parish sheriff's sales are held on Wednesdays at the front door of the courthouse in Minden, during legal sale hours. They are advertised twice in the Minden Press-Herald, about four weeks apart, and the ads also appear on Louisiana Public Notice.
If your house is in one of those ads, you have options before the sale. The free ones come first: your servicer, a HUD-approved counselor and a lawyer. A closing before the sale date pays off the loan through the title company. Our page on the Webster Parish sheriff's sale shows how to check your date.
We buy houses. We are a home buyer, not a law firm, a lender or a housing counselor. We charge homeowners no fee.
Back taxes and parish tax auctions
In Webster Parish, houses with unpaid taxes can end up in a parish auction of adjudicated property. A company called E&P Consulting runs those auctions for the parish, and the auction notices list the parcel and a minimum bid. Bidders register with E&P ahead of time, so call them for the date and place.
Louisiana also requires a notice by publication in some tax sale cases that tells the owner a deadline is running. If you have a notice like that, read it today and talk to a lawyer, because the time to act is limited. Our guide on property taxes in Louisiana explains what changed in 2026. Call the parish tax collector, who is the sheriff, for the exact amount you owe.
Inherited houses and successions in Webster Parish
If the owner has died, the house is generally handled through a succession in the 26th Judicial District Court, which sits in Minden for Webster Parish. A succession is Louisiana's word for probate. A title company usually wants the court paperwork done or underway before it will close.
We can sign with the heirs now and close after the paperwork is ready, and we buy the house with everything inside. See our page for inherited houses and our guide to selling a house in a succession. We are not a law firm, so talk to a Louisiana succession lawyer about your family's case.
How selling to us works
- Call or send the form. Tell us the address and what is going on.
- We look at the house and talk through the numbers, including any loan or back taxes.
- We put the offer in writing so you can show it to someone you trust.
- A local title company closes it. It pays off any loan and sends you the rest. We may pay cash, or in some cases take over payments, and neither is promised until we see the house and the paperwork.
You pick the closing date. We charge sellers no fee.
What to have ready when you call
You do not need paperwork to call. Still, a few things make the first conversation faster, and none of them cost anything to gather.
- The address and, if you know it, the parish tax number or a recent tax bill.
- What you owe, if anything: a mortgage statement, a past-due notice or a notice of seizure.
- Who owns the house. If the owner has died, say so, and tell us whether a succession has been opened.
- What is wrong with the house. Be honest about the roof, the plumbing, the wiring and anything else you know about. We would rather hear it from you than find it on the walk-through.
- Your timeline. Tell us if you have a sale date, a move date or no hurry at all.
Give us the address or the road, and tell us which side of town or which part of the parish it is in. Many Webster Parish houses sit on country roads, and some have no street number on the ad. A description of the lot and the nearest crossroads is enough to start.
