“I thought I’d lost everything when the builder walked away. Home Bolt found a way to untangle it all and get me out clean.”
— Dripping Springs Incomplete Construction Seller
the story
The seller had poured their savings and energy into building their dream home. Midway through construction, the builder abandoned the project and disappeared with the remaining budget. What was meant to be a forever home turned into a year-long nightmare.
The situation left them with:
- A half-built house sitting empty for over a year
- Incomplete plans and records
- Unpaid trades damaging the existing structure
- A looming bank foreclosure
- Title issues that tied the original builder to the property
With no clear path forward, the seller felt stuck and overwhelmed.

the result
The homeowner avoided foreclosure, closed the sale, and walked away with peace of mind. What once felt like a financial disaster became a clean exit and a genuine fresh start.

“I just don’t want another person wasting my time. If you say you’re gonna close, then close.”

“The process was fast, fair, and completely stress-free. I got a price I was happy with and didn’t have to worry about a thing.”

“I’ve had so many people call me about this lot, but you were the first one who didn’t make it sound like a runaround.”

“Other buyers threw numbers at me, but you actually walked me through how it works. That’s what made me feel like it could really get done.”
