Lakeway, Texas · 78734 · 78738
We buy Lakeway houses, lake houses, and the ones the HOA hates.
A tired vacation rental off Flint Rock. An inherited Lake Travis house nobody wants to maintain. A divorce sale in The Hills nobody wants on MLS. We close all three quietly, in cash.

From “let’s talk” to funded, in three steps.
No drone shots over the lake. No staging the dock. No open house weekend that brings the neighbors over. Just a conversation, a real number, and a quiet closing at a Lake Travis title company.
Tell us about the house.
Address, a few details, how fast you need to move. Form or phone. We’ll ask about lake access, septic, and HOA so the number is right the first time.
We do the math and call.
Real Hill Country comps, real condition adjustments, real number. A person calls you — no email blast. If the math doesn’t work for you, we say so.
You pick the closing day.
Local title company near the lake. You pick the date. We cover closing costs. Leave the fishing tackle, the patio furniture, whatever you want. Walk away with a check.
Where we buy around Lakeway.
Waterfront, off-water, inside the gate, out past the dam. If it’s a house in the Lake Travis corridor, chances are we’ve closed on one nearby.
Why Lakeway houses are different.
If you’re selling a house in the Lake Travis corridor, the usual playbook doesn’t apply.
Lakeway isn’t Austin. The houses are bigger, the lots are stranger, and the things that go wrong are more expensive. A septic system in Lakeway can cost $25,000 to replace. An LCRA dock permit that’s lapsed can take six months and $15,000 to reinstate — if the agency approves it at all. Limestone foundations crack differently than the clay-soil slabs in Round Rock, and the repair methods are different too.
Then there are the HOAs. Lakeway has some of the strictest gated community restrictions in Central Texas — Flintrock Falls, Rough Hollow, The Hills. If you’ve fallen behind on dues or your house doesn’t meet covenant standards, listing on the MLS means fixing everything first. We buy as-is, including the HOA headaches.
Vacation rentals add another layer. Short-term rental regulations have tightened across the Lake Travis corridor. If your property was a cash-flow machine in 2021 and a money pit by 2024, you’re not alone. We’ve bought several former STRs from burned-out owners who just want out.
The seasonal factor matters too. Lake Travis homes sell best in spring and summer. If you’re trying to sell in November, you’re competing with empty showings and buyers who’ve already left for the season. A cash offer doesn’t care about seasonality.

Flintrock Falls · 78738 · Inherited house with failed septic + expired dock permit
Three siblings inherited their father’s lake house in Flintrock Falls. Nobody lived in Texas. The septic system had failed, the dock permit with LCRA had expired, and the HOA was sending violation letters about the overgrown landscaping. Two agents declined to list it without $45,000+ in repairs.
We made an offer after one walkthrough that accounted for the septic replacement and dock situation. The siblings closed remotely — one from Denver, one from Chicago, one from Portland — via three separate mobile notaries. Total time from first call to funded: 18 days.

The honest math on Lakeway.
Lake Travis houses carry a premium — and a premium list of things that can go wrong. We’ll price the house on what it actually is today, not a pre-pandemic peak. Here’s the trade-off in plain English.
If the Lake Travis house is in great shape, you have six months, and you want top of market — list with a Lakeway agent who knows the corridor. We’ll say that out loud. If it’s the dock that’s rotting, the septic that’s failing, or a family that just wants it gone quietly — that’s our lane.
Let’s get you a Lakeway number.
Tell us about the house. One person from our shop will call you back within one business day with a straight cash offer and a plain-English breakdown of how we got there. No obligation, no spam, no MLS listing, no handoff to a wholesaler.
