What Attorneys Get
Neutral by Design
We follow the order, not either party. Both counsel get the same updates at the same time.
Fewer Hearings Over the House
Pricing, listing, offers, and repairs are handled within the limits the order sets. The house stops being a fight.
Clear, Capped Fees
1.5% of the sales price, $3,500 minimum, $15,000 maximum, paid at closing. The receiver fee is the same no matter which brokerage lists the property.
How It Works
All eight stepsAppointment
The Court signs an order that appoints us and includes our required provisions.
Oath and Bond
We take the oath and post the bond the order sets, then we qualify.
Intake
We collect the property, loan, HOA, and occupancy details from both counsel.
Secure the Property
We take possession on the vacate date, secure the home, and document its condition.
Price and List
We set the price within the order and list with a qualified Texas agent.
Contract
We review offers and sign the contract under the authority the order gives us.
Close
At closing, the title company pays liens, costs, and fees and disburses the rest as the order directs.
Final Report
We file a final accounting with receipts and ask the Court to discharge us.
Is your case a fit?
- The property is in Texas.
- It is vacant at appointment, or the order sets a firm vacate date.
- There is enough equity to cover liens, costs, commissions, and fees.
- The order includes our required provisions and sets the bond.
The Listing Agent
The listing agent is a licensed Texas agent who knows the property's market. We prefer CDRE-designated agents when one is available. The order names the listing broker and discloses any affiliation with the receiver, and the commission, before the Court signs it. The receiver fee is the same no matter which brokerage lists the property.

Need a real estate expert instead?
Kasey also works with counsel as a consulting or testifying expert on Texas residential real estate: sale price and rent, listing and sale history, contracts and agent practices, and divorce real estate. He can also sit in on a mediation, in person or on Zoom, to answer property questions in real time. Never as receiver and expert in the same case.
