HomeRise currently covers 8 Texas MLS boards, serving Austin, Dallas–Fort Worth, Houston, San Antonio, Central Texas, Corpus Christi, Lubbock, and Tyler. Your listing is placed on the correct MLS based on your home's county and location. Not currently covered: Amarillo MLS, El Paso MLS, Beaumont Board of Realtors MLS, and Midland-Odessa MLS.

Prepare your sale

Selling in Texas:
records and requirements.

Prepare your property records and confirm the requirements and closing costs for your exact address.

01 / Seller preparation

Texas transfer tax (seller planning)

Texas does not impose a statewide real estate transfer tax on deeds. Article VIII, Section 29 of the Texas Constitution (added November 3, 2015) provides that no law enacted after January 1, 2016 may impose a transfer tax on a transaction that conveys fee simple title to real property. Sellers still budget for title premiums, prorations, optional buyer-agent compensation, and other closing costs that vary by address and transaction. Ask your settlement provider for an itemized estimate.

Full seller closing-cost breakdown

No state transfer tax does not mean no closing costs. For a fuller breakdown of what Texas sellers typically pay at closing (title, settlement, prorations, and related charges), see HomeRise’s Texas seller closing-costs guide.

Seller disclosure paperwork

Texas sellers generally provide a seller’s disclosure notice for the property. Requirements depend on your situation, so review HomeRise’s Texas disclosure guide and confirm with your settlement or legal provider.

How much does a flat fee MLS listing cost in Texas?

HomeRise offers Texas flat fee MLS listings starting at $95 for the Essentials plan, plus a $495 closing compliance fee at settlement. The Advanced plan is $495 upfront plus a $995 closing compliance fee and includes professional photography, a yard sign, and lockbox.

What is the closing compliance fee?

The closing compliance fee covers the compliance work required to process your Texas real estate transaction — including MLS compliance, document review, and closing coordination. It's a fixed amount ($495 or $995 depending on your plan) and is only charged when your home successfully sells.

Which MLS boards does HomeRise list on in Texas?

HomeRise covers 8 Texas MLS boards: Central Texas MLS; Corpus Christi MLS; Greater Tyler Association of Realtors; Houston MLS; Lubbock MLS; MetroTex (Dallas, Fort Worth); San Antonio Board of Realtors; Unlock MLS (Austin). Coverage is confirmed at listing based on your home's county and location. Amarillo MLS, El Paso MLS, Beaumont Board of Realtors MLS, and Midland-Odessa MLS are not currently covered.

Can I sell my house without a realtor in Texas?

Yes. Texas allows homeowners to sell FSBO. HomeRise gives you full MLS exposure so you get the same visibility as agent-listed homes while keeping control of the sale. Here's the full walkthrough for listing on the MLS yourself.

How long does it take to get listed on the Texas MLS?

Most Texas sellers go live on the MLS within 24–72 hours of submitting their listing details and completing the compliance call.

Do I still have to pay a buyer's agent commission in Texas?

Since the 2024 NAR settlement, buyer agent commissions are no longer pre-set on the MLS. You decide whether to offer a buyer agent commission and how much.

What happens if my home doesn't sell?

If your home doesn't sell during the listing period, you can renew or cancel with no additional fees. HomeRise offers a 100% money-back guarantee if you cancel before your listing goes live on the MLS.

Does Texas have a real estate transfer tax when I sell?

No. Texas does not have a statewide real estate transfer tax on deeds — Article VIII, Section 29 of the Texas Constitution prohibits new laws imposing a transfer tax on transactions that convey fee simple title to real property. You may still owe title, prorations, and other closing costs, so confirm with your settlement provider for your property and see our seller closing costs in Texas guide.

Which Texas MLS boards does HomeRise not cover yet?

Amarillo, El Paso, Beaumont, and Midland-Odessa boards are not currently covered. Enter your address in the listing flow to confirm eligibility. The El Paso city page is for local guidance only and is not a coverage claim for El Paso MLS.

Does the $95 list fee include Texas title or taxes?

No. HomeRise Essentials is $95 to list plus $495 only if you close. Title premiums, prorations, buyer-agent compensation (if any), and other closing costs are separate.

What seller disclosure do I need in Texas?

Texas sellers generally use a seller’s disclosure notice for the property. Requirements depend on your situation — use our sellers disclosure Texas guide and confirm with your settlement or legal provider. HomeRise does not give legal advice.
