When you submit an offer on a house in Spring Texas, how long does it take before the sellers respond? Depends on when you submit the offer and who the seller is.
If the house is a Foreclosure, Short Sale, or Corporate Relocation, it is owned by a corporation. The people who make the decisions for the corporation work 8 to 5 pm Monday – Friday. Thus if you submit an offer outside of the normal work days and hours, the earliest you will hear a response is the next work day.
The people who handle Corporate Relocation houses are pretty quick and will typically respond to your offer by the next business day. On Foreclosures, the typical wait time is between 2 to 10 business days. If you submit an offer on a Short Sale, you better be willing to be patient. We sometimes don’t receive a response on a Short Sale until 60 days after the offer was submitted.
If the Spring Texas house is owned by an individual, the response time is usually significantly quicker. Although the seller is under no obligation to respond within a specified time frame, the majority of sellers will respond to your offer within 24 hours.

She took us through the process which we thought was daunting and at times frustrating. With her excellent local knowledge (including the area, the builder, the market, local school and tax system to name a few) and experience with building a new home (each steps that need to happen and what to look out for), we were able to find a place quickly and go through the building process smoothly. With the ability to grasp our needs and interests fairly quickly, Jill demonstrated strong representation of our interests, including negotiations on our behalf and recommending additional steps which builders would not typically do. Jill had a strong focus on customer service, not only being responsive and answering every questions in detail, but also proactively go extra miles to help us at every step along the way, including alerting us the things we need to do and watch for, helping us out in the design selection process (which very few agents would do) , walking us through the paper works and highlighting issues. It was our pleasure to know Jill and work with her in our new chapter of life. We are very happy with her excellent work and would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone. read less
