Southern Hills Home Buyers, the Plano Family Business Buying DFW Homes Since 2017

When you sell a house to a cash buyer, you want to know whose name sits behind the logo. Plenty of buyer websites never tell you. If you've searched Southern Hills Home Buyers founder Brandon Beatty, you've already found the answer to that first question, and this piece fills in the rest.

Southern Hills Home Buyers is a family-owned company based in Plano, Texas, and it buys homes across Dallas-Fort Worth and other Texas markets. Here's what the public record shows about who runs it, how long it's been around, and what sellers say about working with the people there.

The Founder Behind the Name

Brandon Beatty founded Southern Hills Home Buyers. The company's own blog says so in an author box: "Brandon is the founder of Southern Hills Home Buyers." The BBB lists "Mr. Brandon Beatty, Managing Member" as both the principal and the customer contact for the business.

That second point is worth a moment. On many company profiles, the contact is a general inbox or a call center. Here the BBB names the founder himself as the person to reach. Anyone looking up Southern Hills Home Buyers founder Brandon Beatty will also find him on Zillow, where his profile is tied to the company and lists Dallas, Plano, Denton, Mesquite and Houston. HomeLight's October 2026 roundup of Waxahachie buyers says the company "was founded in 2017 by Brandon Beatty."

A Short Timeline

The company doesn't publish a founding story. Third-party records fill in the dates, though, and they line up well.

The 2024 press release was a paid wire story with a plain headline about reaching five-star reviews on Google and Facebook. Today the company says it has "300+ five-star Google reviews," and HomeLight lists the company's Google rating at 5.0. The BBB page shows 8 reviews averaging 4.5, so not every review there is perfect, which is normal for any company that's been buying homes for years.

The BBB also lists Southern Hills Property Group LLC as an alternate name. Some older reviews use that name, so don't be thrown if you see it.

What Family-Owned Means Here

The company puts it simply on its homepage: "We are family-owned and operated local investor home buyers in the Dallas metro." Its Our Company page calls it "a family-owned business rooted in the heart of Plano, Texas." Its Texas page adds, "Southern Hills is a TX company and always has been."

In practice, that shows up in a few ways. The office is in Plano, at 700 E Park Blvd #202. The company buys with its own offer and doesn't act as an agent. It says, "We're not agents, and we don't list houses." The terms are short, too. You pay no fees or commissions, the company often pays the closing costs, and a typical close takes 7 to 21 days or follows your schedule.

Brandon in Sellers' Own Words

Several reviews name Brandon directly, which suggests the founder still works with sellers himself instead of handing every call to someone else. These reviews come from Google and from the company's own testimonials page.

Melissa Head sold her father's house. She wrote, "Brandon did an amazing job helping me sell my fathers house! He called immediately and made a bittersweet situation smooth as possible and I greatly appreciate it!"

Wendy Lin sold her mother-in-law's home: "Brandon is a true professional to work with. The company gave a fair price and purchased my MILs home without any hiccups."

Gayle O. sold her aunt's home. Her review reads, "Shannon and Brandon Beatty were knowledgeable, efficient, honest and delightful to work with in the recent sale of my aunt’s home."

Notice a pattern in those three. Each sale involved a parent's or relative's house, which is often the hardest kind of sale to face. Family homes come with grief, siblings and boxes of keepsakes. The reviews keep coming back to calm, honest help through all of it.

How the Company Thinks About Hard Sales

Brandon writes on the company blog, and his post on tenant-occupied homes shows how the business handles a tricky sale. The company says it buys rentals "without asking you to clear the tenancy first." In one DeSoto case, the post says, "We made one offer, took over the lease exactly as written."

The same post describes the offer itself. "We look at the numbers, then come back with a cash offer you can sit on for as long as you want." There's no rush built into that line, and it fits the rest of the site. The FAQ says plainly, "There is absolutely zero obligation for you."

Inherited homes get the same care. The company says it handles the title work alongside the seller and asks executors for letters testamentary up front. Where several heirs share the house, it can often make one offer that covers the whole group.

What It Buys Across Texas

The list goes well past single-family houses. Southern Hills buys condos, duplexes, land and commercial property. It also buys mobile homes, from single wides to triple wides, with or without land. It's honest about price, too, and its inherited homes page says, "The offer will be below retail." It makes its money by fixing and reselling.

The company keeps pages for cities across the Dallas metro, from Fort Worth, Arlington and Garland to Frisco, McKinney, Denton and Waxahachie. Houston, Austin, San Antonio, Waco and Tyler are on its list too.

What a Sale With Southern Hills Looks Like

The steps are short. You reach out by phone or through the form on the site, and the company asks about the house and your plans. It then looks at your actual home and sends a written cash offer. You can sit on that offer, compare it with others or turn it down. If you say yes, you pick the closing date, take what you want from the house and leave the rest behind.

The Takeaway

If you started with Southern Hills Home Buyers founder Brandon Beatty, the record tells a clear story. A named founder started a family business in Plano in 2017, built up seller reviews, and earned BBB accreditation with an A+ rating in 2026. For Dallas sellers who want to know exactly who runs the company, that's a strong place to start. Ask for a written offer whenever you're ready, and take all the time you need with it.
