Pickl Texas receives referrals regarding abandoned properties and disconnected owners from a range of sources, such as realtors, attorneys, title companies, private lenders, inquisitive neighbors, and even mail carriers.

We also perform our own research using public records, vital statistics, and court documents to identify cases that could benefit from our services. If we have reached out to you, it’s because our research indicates you may have a partial interest in a property or may possess valuable information for someone else's property claim.

Families often grow distant, and without a central person managing the family tree and property taxes over time, crucial information can be lost.

This is more common than many people think.

Furthermore, if someone dies without a will designating an Executor or Administrator, or if no family member steps in promptly to manage an estate, it will take extra effort to identify and publicly document legitimate heirs.

Our intentions are entirely legitimate.

The partners at Pickl TX LLC collectively have decades of real estate experience in the field. and we depend on referrals and a solid reputation to keep our business strong.

Our goal is solely to work with owners and heirs of properties undergoing title issues or other distress.

We can provide references from previous clients beyond the testimonials on our website if needed. Additionally, we welcome communication from your attorney.

Each property is unique and comes with its own set of issues, but Pickl TX LLC can close and fund within 24 hours after a contract is signed, if all requests and information has been provided.

Pickl TX LLC covers all expenses required to close a transaction and invests its time and resources, taking on the associated risks in the hopes that the property will be viable. While our legal and exploratory expenses can run into tens of thousands of dollars, we never require our clients to risk their own money or pay our company a fee when they decide to sell to us.

Our offers are carefully underwritten to evaluate risk and take into account existing tax and lien obligations, current market value relative to a property's condition, and projected legal costs required to resolve any title or estate issues.

Additionally, the amount of one's partial undivided interest is another strong factor that we consider.

If the property taxes are not being paid current, tax debts could accrue that lead to an eventual foreclose on it to recover the unpaid delinquent taxes. If the property is not being properly maintained and falls into severe disrepair, the county could possibly condemn and demolish it, while charging the costs to the property itself.

It depends. Determining the value of an undivided interest in real property is more complex than simply ordering an appraisal, as there is no single "controlling interest" like in businesses or partnerships. Probated wills and estates will dictate inheritance through the district courts, while Texas intestacy laws otherwise assign interests based on existing conditions of the deceased's heirs.
