No. My role is strictly limited to the property sale. I am neutral and will not comment on or participate in discussions related to personal, financial, or divorce-related issues.  Source: Receiver’s Court Order – Scope of Authority


The court grants receivers legal authority to act with or without party cooperation. Refusal to allow access or delays may be reported and result in court sanctions. Source: Texas Rule of Civil Procedure 706

  •  How will the property be sold?

The home will be listed on the MLS and marketed like any residential or commercial sale. If necessary, the home will be sold off market to expedite the sale. All offers will be handled professionally and according to court orders and TREC rules .

  •  What if the property needs repairs?

Minor repairs or clean-up may be arranged to make the property market-ready. Costs may be deducted from sale proceeds or paid as directed by the court.

  •  Can you discuss legal strategy or help with settlement?

No. I do not take sides or offer legal advice. Please consult your attorney for anything outside the scope of the sale.


Not during the selling process, however, you must provide access for inspections, marketing photos, showings, and appraisals. It is essential to  plan your relocation process and we can assist with that as well.

Who Pays the Receiver?

 

  • Who pays the Receiver?
    Receiver fees are paid from the proceeds of the sale or property income, not directly from either party’s pocket or the court that appoints them.  Subject to court approval, a receiver is compensated for expenses associated with their services.  Receivers generally charge from 15% to 20% of the sales price or whatever is collected, plus what the court would consider reasonable expenses.
  • Receiver fees can vary  depending on the complexity of the case.
