Kemah is a beautiful place to live — waterfront views, the Boardwalk, Galveston Bay right outside your door. But when it comes time to sell, everything that makes Kemah special also makes the sale harder. This is a tiny coastal city — fewer than 900 housing units total — sitting directly on the bay with full exposure to storm surge, wind, and the insurance costs that come with all of it.
Hurricane Ike demolished the entire first floor of structures along the Boardwalk and pushed 10 to 14 feet of surge across the western shore of Galveston Bay. Homes here carry TWIA windstorm policies on top of standard homeowners and NFIP flood insurance — three separate premiums that add thousands per year. For a financed buyer, that's a hurdle before they even look at the house.
With only about 870 total housing units in the entire city and 35% of those occupied by renters, the resale market is thin. There aren't enough transactions to generate quick comps, and a listing can sit while buyers weigh the insurance math against communities further inland with lower carrying costs.

Not every home should be sold to a cash buyer. If listing is likely to net you more and you have time, we’ll tell you — our offer is just one option.

If your situation isn’t listed, send your address anyway — we’ll tell you what options make sense.
It often does. Buyers shopping Kemah quickly learn they'll need homeowners, windstorm, and flood insurance — three separate policies. Many walk away and look further inland. We pay cash, so your buyer's insurance burden is no longer your problem.
Repaired storm damage is common in Kemah — we expect to see it. Our offer is based on the home's current condition, not what happened to it 10 or 15 years ago. Previous damage on a disclosure doesn't change our willingness to buy.
Yes. Most closings happen within 14–21 days, and we can go as fast as 7 if title is clear. We'll coordinate timing with you so the cash is in hand when you need it for your next purchase.
We look at Kemah sales along with comparable waterfront and coastal properties in Seabrook, Clear Lake Shores, and League City. We also factor in condition, lot size, and flood zone. We walk you through the numbers so nothing feels like a guess.
