Is Your Amarillo House in Potter County or Randall County?

It matters for the paperwork. Amarillo sits in two counties: Potter County serves the northern part of the city and Randall County the southern part, each with its own court system and property tax administration ¹. One appraisal district, the Potter-Randall Appraisal District, sets values on both sides ², and it is the office to call about exemptions, at 806-358-1601 ³.

The taxes themselves are collected by county. On the Randall side, Randall County collects the City of Amarillo's and Amarillo ISD's property taxes ⁴. On the Potter side, the City of Amarillo is one of Potter County's taxing units ⁵. Each county also keeps its own deed records and runs its own foreclosure sales, so a sale's paperwork goes through the county your house is in. Your tax statement shows which one. Bring it to the call.

Hail-Worn Roofs and Older Homes: Selling an Amarillo House As-Is

Roofs take the beating here. On May 28, 2013, hail up to baseball size pummeled the western and northern sides of Amarillo, in a storm estimated to have caused $500 million in damage to homes, cars, businesses and farms ⁶. On June 21, 2004, baseball- to softball-size hail fell mainly west of Interstate 27, in what the National Weather Service called perhaps the worst wind and hail event in the city's history ⁷. If your shingles are pitted, the gutters dented or the roof patched from an old claim, you can sell the house that way.

Many Amarillo houses are old, too. In North Heights, in northeast Amarillo, most homes standing today were built in the early to mid twentieth century ⁸, and around the Plemons-Eakle Historic District near downtown, some date to the late 19th century ⁹. Original wiring, an old furnace or a settled foundation is part of the condition we price. Tell us what you know.

Amarillo Sellers: Listing Proceeds Versus a Cash Offer

Listing your Amarillo house may well bring a higher price than our offer, if it's in good shape and you have months to wait. Count what comes out first: the commission, the repairs a buyer's inspector asks for (a hail-worn roof is a common one), and the payments, insurance and utilities you carry meanwhile. The Potter County figures on this page show how long listings have been taking.

The worked example uses the county's median asking price and the Texas title policy. Hold our written offer up against the net it leaves.

On a $225,000 sale

Example, not a quote.

Listing with an agent

Sale price: $225,000
Agent commission (5.5% here; it varies): −$12,375
Repairs before listing (example): −$12,000
Owner's title policy (Texas rate, if you pay it): −$1,398
Half the escrow fee, deed preparation and tax certificates (example; title companies vary): −$800
Three months of carrying costs (example): −$4,050
You'd walk away with: $194,377

Comparing a cash offer

In this example, listing would leave you about $194,377 before your mortgage payoff. Compare that with your cash offer, less any closing costs you'd still pay.

Your numbers depend on your house, your loan, your county and the title company. Want your real numbers? Enter your address above or call (984) 489-8269.

When an Amarillo Sale Can't Wait

In Amarillo the first question is often which county you're dealing with, Potter or Randall, because each runs its own sales, records and tax office. Each note below says where to go; the statewide law is on our Texas page. It's plain-language information, not legal advice for your case.

Facing foreclosureTwo notices, then an auction on the first Tuesday of a month. Here is how the clock runs.

Where the auction happens depends on the county. Potter County holds its real estate sales in the 11th-floor auditorium of the Santa Fe Building, at 9th and Polk downtown ¹⁰. Randall County holds substitute trustee sales in the foyer of the south main entrance of the Randall County Justice Center, 2309 Russell Long Boulevard in Canyon ¹¹. The Texas notice timeline is on our Texas page.

Inherited a houseWhat happens to a Texas house when the owner dies, with a will or without one.

On the Potter side, the County Clerk keeps the records for the county's three courts, and a probate records search needs the person's name and approximate date of death ¹². On the Randall side, probate starts in the County Court in Canyon, and a contested part can be sent to a County Court at Law ¹³. How a Texas house passes is on our Texas page.

Behind on paymentsA servicer generally can't start foreclosure until you're more than 120 days behind.

Both tax offices let an owner who is 65 or older or disabled pay the current homestead taxes in four installments. Randall County's plan starts with a quarter of the bill and a signed agreement by January 31, then payments by March 31, May 31 and July 31 ¹⁴; Potter County offers quarter payments too ¹⁵. If you've fallen behind anyway, tell us what's owed.

Going through a divorceTexas is a community property state. Here is what that means for the house.

Texas community property and homestead rules are on our Texas page. In Amarillo, first pull the deed from the right county: Potter County's official public records are at 500 South Fillmore Street, Suite 201 ¹⁶, and Randall County's clerk is at 2309 Russell Long Boulevard, Suite 101, in Canyon ¹⁷.

Selling a rental with tenantsYour tenants don't have to move out first. Bring the lease and the deposit records to the call.

A tenant in an Amarillo rental can stay put while you sell; the Texas rules on handing over security deposits are on our Texas page. Check which side of the county line the rental sits on before the call, since the Potter and Randall tax offices bill it separately, and bring the lease and the deposit ledger.

Moving away or downsizingLine the sale up with your move, and take your school-tax ceiling with you if you stay in Texas.

Randall County's tax office notes that an over-65 or disabled homestead exemption brings a tax ceiling on school taxes, and possibly on county, city and college taxes ¹⁴. To take a ceiling to another Texas home, ask the appraisal district; the rule is on our Texas page.

Amarillo Home Sale Questions, Answered

Prefer to talk it through?

Call (984) 489-8269

How long does it take to sell an Amarillo house to you?

As little as 14 days after you accept our written offer, or any later date you pick. The title search and your lender's payoff figure usually set the pace, and an estate or a lease can add a step.

Would I net more listing my Amarillo house with an agent?

Possibly, if the house shows well and you can wait. Weigh what you'd keep after commission, repairs and carrying costs against our written offer.

My house is near a playa lake that flooded in 2023. Will you still buy it?

Yes. On June 7, 2023, water escaped the already full Lawrence Lake and flooded nearby streets, businesses and homes, and more than 200 people and 50 pets were rescued ¹⁹. In 2026 the City approved a $14,255,589 contract to more than triple that playa's pumping capacity ²⁰. Tell us if water ever got in, and what was repaired.

Why is there a PID charge on my Amarillo tax bill?

Some subdivisions, among them The Colonies, The Greenways, Quail Creek and Town Square, are public improvement districts, and their assessments are calculated each year by the Potter-Randall Appraisal District ²¹. Bring your latest statement to the call, so we see the whole bill.

Where do I pay Amarillo property taxes before closing?

At the county your house is in. Randall County's tax office is at 501 16th Street, Suite 200, in Canyon, with an Amarillo annex at 4320 S. Western Street, Suite 100 ², and January 31 is the last day to pay without penalty and interest ¹⁴. Potter County's office is at 900 South Polk, Suite 106 ²².

Do historic rules apply to an older Amarillo house I want to sell?

They can apply to work on it, not to the sale. The City's historic preservation ordinance sets requirements for changing or demolishing historic structures and landmarks ²³. If you applied for exterior work on an older house near downtown, or were turned down, tell us on the call.

Does the hail damage on my Amarillo roof have to be fixed before I sell?

Not to sell to us. On a Texas sale, the Seller's Disclosure Notice states what you know about the house as of the day you sign it ²⁴, so tell us the roof's age, any claims paid and whether the money went into repairs.

Do you buy houses near Amarillo?

Yes. We also buy houses in Timbercreek Canyon, Palisades and Canyon ⁴. If you're not sure, call us.

Texas law for every sale, from foreclosure notices to the title policy, is on our Texas page.
