New subdivision rooftops and greenways across Manor east of Austin

Frontier Housing sources houses in Manor privately for builders, so an owner in ShadowGlen, Carillon or the older streets near downtown Manor can sell without funding a renovation, hosting months of showings or competing listing by listing against the brand new subdivisions still opening off US 290 and Toll 130. Call 401-219-4207, describe the roof, the foundation and any drainage history on your lot candidly, and a written offer follows grounded in Travis County closings. The service is open only to owners who are selling, and the firm works purely as a wholesaler placing houses with builders; it builds nothing itself and lists nothing for anyone.

Five commitments run underneath each offer here, privacy first: nothing is advertised, no sign stands in the yard and no photographs are published. You close inside 7 to 21 days when a deadline presses, or on a later date of your choosing when an Austin area move needs the room. No commission is taken from your proceeds, the offer charges you no seller closing costs, and the home passes in its present state, free of inspection repair demands and contractor organising.

Seller experiences

What sellers say about the process

Three homeowners, in their own words, on selling without a listing.

Man in a navy polo shirt, garden and house behind him

I needed to sell my house quickly and didn’t want to deal with repairs or listing it. The entire process was straightforward, and the team kept me updated throughout. We closed on the date we agreed on. Highly recommend!

John Williams
Man in a light blue shirt on a porch

I spoke with a few companies before deciding to work with them. They gave me a fair offer, explained everything clearly, and never pressured me. The whole experience was much easier than I expected.

Alex Lintz
Older man with gray hair in a dark sweater, garden behind him

My property needed quite a bit of work, and I didn’t want to spend money fixing it up. They bought it as-is and handled the process professionally. No surprises, no unnecessary delays. I would definitely work with them again.

The process

How it works in Manor

Three stages sit between a first conversation and money in hand. The route starts on the contact page or with a call to 401-219-4207.

1

The first step is one phone call where you describe the home in plain, honest terms

That first call records your subdivision or street, roof and foundation condition, any creek drainage history on the lot, and the completion date your onward plans genuinely require.

2

The team then builds the evidence, comparing the house against closed Manor sales, amounts builders have paid across eastern Travis County for homes on usable lots, and renovated values with construction spending taken back out

3

What returns is a written offer with every supporting number laid out

Settle inside 7 to 21 days where a job transfer or school deadline presses, hold for a later date that suits an Austin corridor move, or decline and keep the research free.

Start on the contact page

Ask for a private figure

Tell the team the address and the date you are working toward, and the reply carries a written figure with the local evidence underneath it, together with the completion terms set out in plain language.

Contact us for a figure

Talk it through first

Plenty of sellers ring before they have decided anything at all. The conversation costs nothing and carries no obligation, and it covers what a builder would likely pay for the lot and what the listed route would leave behind.

What is a Manor house worth once a builder prices the lot?
The honest answer comes from evidence around your own street, and the team will walk you through that evidence.
Ask for that figure

Selling to Frontier Housing:

  • A direct two party deal with no listing paperwork, no sign in the yard and no showing schedule running through your street
  • Completion within 7 to 21 days when a relocation date is fixed, or a slower timetable arranged deliberately around your next address
  • The home accepted exactly as it stands, ending contractor bids, cleanout hire and pre listing renovation programmes
  • Cash standing behind the agreement, removing buyer loan approval and appraisal risk from the transaction
  • No commissions deducted from your proceeds, and no seller closing costs applied under the terms offered
  • Privacy from first call to recording, with no portal photographs, no marketing campaign and no neighbourhood announcement
  • Flexibility following closing where a short documented holdover lets a Travis County move run in sequence
  • Net proceeds committed in writing before any clock starts, so you plan around a figure instead of a projection

A traditional listing:

Homes.com printed a median sale price of 369,990 dollars for the trailing twelve months, down 8 percent on the year, with a median 70 days on market, 7.1 months of supply and 426 homes sold (Homes.com, 2026). Because Texas charges no transfer tax, the listed cost burden here falls on commission and the owner title policy the seller customarily funds, both priced below.

The detail behind a Manor sale

Steps to selling a house in Manor, Texas

  1. Set the timetable from the printed 70 day pace instead of from hope. Seventy median days in the Homes.com frame means a listed Manor sale should be planned as a four month project from launch to recording once a buyer loan closing is added.
  2. Judge asking price against both closed resale sales and live builder offers. Your buyer is comparing your street against a new home down the road with rate incentives attached, so the comparable set has to include both kinds of sale.
  3. Deliver the Seller Disclosure Notice on or before the contract effective date, covering foundation, roof, drainage and any Gilleland Creek water history, because a late notice hands the buyer a seven day termination right after receipt.
  4. Close through a title company escrow office, settle taxes and association balances, and record the deed with the Travis County clerk.

Documents you need to sell a house in Texas

A Manor sale file turns on the Seller Disclosure Notice that Property Code section 5.008 requires for residential property carrying a single dwelling unit. Sellers complete the notice from their own belief and knowledge, and it falls due on or before the day the contract takes effect; a buyer who first receives it after signing holds a seven day right to terminate from receipt. Eleven categories of transfer sit outside the duty, including foreclosure sales, fiduciary transfers within estate administration, transfers between co owners or between spouses, and never occupied new construction. Assemble the deed, the mortgage payoff statement, homeowners association documents, which matter across Manor master planned communities, and any drainage records for creek side lots. Where the seller is an estate, add the probate letters evidencing the executor authority to sign.

Cost to sell a house in Manor, Texas

One familiar charge never appears in Texas: the state imposes no real estate transfer tax, and county recording fees stay nominal. What remains is commission plus the title policy that Texas custom places on the seller in most contracts, at state promulgated premium rates, allowed here at 2,700 dollars. Commission at 5 to 6 percent of the 369,990 dollar median spans 18,500 to 22,199 dollars, and 20,349 dollars at the 5.5 percent midpoint (Homes.com, 2026).

Net proceeds = sale price minus mortgage payoff minus closing costs minus commissions minus repairs and concessions

Take a Manor house selling at the 369,990 dollar median while owing 180,000 dollars on its mortgage. Subtracting 20,349 dollars of commission at 5.5 percent and a 2,700 dollar owner title policy allowance, with no transfer tax line to deduct, leaves estimated net proceeds of 166,941 dollars before tax advice.

The primary frame is the Homes.com city set covering the trailing twelve months into 2026: a 369,990 dollar median across 426 sales, 70 median days on market and 7.1 months of supply (Homes.com, 2026). An earlier window of that same frame printed a 355,000 dollar median with 71 days on market and 6.8 months of supply, and the drift between windows pictures a new build market cooling as inventory piles up.

Economic drivers in Manor

ShadowGlen, Carillon and a ring of recent subdivisions supply most homes, and an older small town core survives downtown.

Flash flooding is the local hazard with a record, because creek low crossings go under water in heavy Central Texas storms, joined by extreme heat and hail. Sellers who can document drainage behaviour on their own lot answer the first question eastern Travis County buyers now ask.

What this means for sellers in Manor

Manor counted 21,500 residents in the July 1, 2024 Census estimate, a fast growing Travis County city east of Austin on US 290 with the Toll 130 corridor at its edge (U.S. Census Bureau, 2024). Growth rests on Austin commuting and corridor employers toward the Samsung plant at Taylor and the Tesla factory in southeast Austin.

A third reading from FastExpert, covering listings rather than closings, printed a 331,990 dollar median asking price, an 80 day pace and 275 active listings (FastExpert, 2026). No verified ZIP level closing series was assembled for Manor, and the tax assessment median published for its single ZIP code is an assessment frame rather than a sale frame, so no ZIP price table appears here.

Frequently asked questions

How long does a Manor house take to sell?
Homes.com measured a median 70 days on market across the trailing twelve months, the slowest pace in this slice, with 7.1 months of supply confirming a buyer leaning market (Homes.com, 2026). Builder competition explains most of that pace, because any resale listing here sits beside fresh inventory sold with incentives and warranties attached. A private completion through Frontier Housing runs 7 to 21 days, or lands on a later date you pick, without a season of exposure to that comparison.
What closing costs face a Manor seller?
Commission carries the argument, about 20,349 dollars at the median under a 5.5 percent assumption, with the owner title policy, roughly 2,700 dollars at this price on Texas custom, behind it and no state transfer tax to pay at all (Homes.com, 2026). Recording fees are nominal. Inside a Frontier Housing offer, commission and seller closing costs are carried by the firm, so the meaningful comparison is the agreed price less your remaining mortgage balance, not a gross listing figure.
Do I need an attorney to close in Manor?
No. In Texas the closing table belongs to the title company escrow office, and no attorney is required to conduct a routine sale, though only lawyers may draft certain legal documents for others. The title company holds escrow, runs the title search, issues the policy and records the deed with the Travis County clerk. Lawyers earn their place on estates, survey problems, title defects and contract disputes. A standard Manor sale, listed or direct, finishes at the title office without a lawyer conducting the closing.
What must a Texas seller disclose in Manor?
Property Code section 5.008 frames the duty. A seller of a home with one dwelling unit hands the buyer a written Seller Disclosure Notice, answered from the seller own belief and knowledge, on or before the contract effective date; a buyer who receives it late may walk away within seven days of receipt. In Manor the entries buyers weigh most are foundation performance on local clays, roof condition after hail seasons and any creek drainage history, so answer those plainly and keep any reports with the file.
Can I sell a Manor house without an agent?
Yes. A Texas owner may sell with no listing at all, and the title company closing, the county recording and the disclosure duty all proceed exactly as they would behind an agent. What disappears is the long marketing season and the commission funding it, worth roughly 20,349 dollars at the Manor median. Frontier Housing buys through that direct channel, testing the property against closed resale sales rather than builder asking prices, issuing a written offer with the workings visible and closing on the date you set.
How does Frontier Housing compare with listing or a We Buy Houses firm?
Listing in Manor means competing head on with new subdivisions offering rate incentives and warranties, which suits a nearly new, well priced home and punishes an ordinary one across a long season. Most We Buy Houses firms set their bids low enough that their speed costs a seller a substantial share of resale value. Frontier Housing sources the house onward to builders, shows the Manor closing evidence beneath its figure and charges no commission, so compare all three routes on net proceeds and total calendar together.
Can I sell a Manor house as it stands?
Yes, provided the known facts about the house travel with it through the disclosure notice. Selling as is in Texas shifts repair responsibility to the buyer, but the section 5.008 duty to state known foundation, roof and water facts remains in full, and Travis County buyers test slabs and drainage as a matter of routine. Frontier Housing prices visible condition into its first written offer and asks for no repair list, which is the straightforward way to sell a Manor house that needs work in a market full of new alternatives.
What should Manor sellers know about creek flooding and heat?
Gilleland Creek and Wilbarger Creek are not abstract map lines here, because low crossings and creek side lots in the subdivisions themselves take water in heavy Central Texas storms, and summer heat stresses roofs, air conditioning and foundations on clay soils across the city. How a lot drains varies from one lot to the next, which is why buyers ask about your exact street rather than the subdivision generally. Photographs, drainage records or elevation information showing how your lot handled past storms give buyers a confidence that shows in the price they will defend.
Can I sell before a Texas foreclosure sale?
Yes, but treat the calendar as urgent, because Texas runs one of the fastest foreclosure processes in this programme. The process is nonjudicial under a deed of trust: notice is posted and mailed 21 days ahead, the sale happens on the courthouse steps on the first Tuesday of the month under Property Code section 51.002, and ordinary home loans carry no redemption right after the sale. A private sale therefore has to close before that first Tuesday lands. Owners in arrears should move on the first notice they receive, because the runway from notice to sale is counted in weeks.
Can I sell an inherited house in Manor?
Yes. Texas probate is comparatively light machinery by national standards. Most estates proceed by independent administration, under which an appointed executor may sell real estate with limited court supervision, and small estate or muniment of title procedures shorten qualifying files still further. A title company insuring the sale will ask to see the probate letters and the will on file before it commits. Frontier Housing works to probate calendars, including patient ones, and can hold an offer open while a Travis County estate completes its steps.
Does lead paint matter in Manor?
Barely, because Manor is a young city and almost none of its subdivisions predate the federal 1978 line. The duty attaches to the small older core near downtown and scattered early farmhouses at the edges. For a home built before 1978 the federal requirements apply: state known lead hazards, hand over any reports you hold, supply the official pamphlet and allow a 10 day inspection period unless the buyer waives it in writing. A ShadowGlen house built in 2008 sits outside the requirement entirely, which describes most Manor sales.
Can I sell a Manor rental property with tenants in place?
Yes, tenanted homes sell in Manor, and a Texas lease survives a sale for its full term, leaving the buyer to take subject to it. Deposits must pass to the buyer, and the tenant must be told who the new owner is for deposit refund purposes under Property Code chapter 92; association rules across the master planned communities can also shape the file, and buyers ask for leases and payment history at the start. Tenancy shapes the valuation; it does not prevent a direct sale on your timetable.
