Compare the choices
A listing can fit a house that is ready for buyers and an owner who can manage preparation and showings. Compare repair and cleanout work, photos, inspection requests, commissions, concessions, taxes, insurance, utilities, and the time you may carry the house. A direct sale is another option: compare the written price and terms with those costs and with what you would keep after the obligations for your property.
We have two ways to buy. A Cash Offer is built for speed, condition, and tough situations — heavy repairs, tight timelines, difficult circumstances. EZ Sale is often the better fit when the house doesn't need major repairs and you want a higher number. Either way, you compare written numbers and you pick what works best for you.

Just an estimate — the actual number could be more or less depending on the home's condition.

Davenport has a city historic-preservation program and a Historic Resources map. City GIS labels include Vander Veer Historic Neighborhood and East Side Neighborhood Association; those names help orient you, but they do not establish a parcel boundary or whether a particular house is designated. Check the address and its review path with the City.

Davenport sits along the Mississippi River, and the City publishes flood status, preparedness, and risk-reduction information. Use its address-oriented resources for a property question; this guide does not determine whether a particular house is in a flood area or has had water damage.
Closing questions
Start with the deed and any estate or court papers. The title company can identify which owners or representatives need to sign and what documents it needs. For a disputed or unclear estate question, ask an Iowa attorney to review the actual papers.
Iowa charges 80 cents for each $500, or fraction of $500, of the sale price above the first $500. On a $100,000 sale, the taxable amount is $99,500 and the tax is $159.20. The person conveying the property, normally the seller, is liable by law; exemptions may apply, so the closing professional confirms whether the tax applies and the taxable amount.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including Iowa real estate transfer tax. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate.

A sale may still be possible if the payoff or redemption amount can be paid in time. Iowa home mortgages are generally foreclosed through a court case, and the court's judgment leads to a sheriff's sale. Before suing, most lenders must give the owner of an occupied one- or two-family home a notice with 30 days to cure the default and tell the owner that counseling and mediation are available.
The sale must be posted and published, with the first publication at least four weeks before the sale. The deadline depends on the kind of foreclosure. Some cases allow the owner to redeem after the sale, generally for one year, with shorter periods in some cases. If the lender chooses foreclosure without redemption for nonagricultural property, there is no right to redeem after the sheriff's sale. A written demand may delay the sale under the court procedure. Have the title company or an attorney confirm the current deadline and amount needed.
If a foreclosure sale is scheduled, tell us the date right away so we can try to close before it.
Iowa Code chapter 654: foreclosure by action, cure notice, and special execution · §626.75: notice of sale · Iowa Code chapter 628: redemption periods · §654.20: foreclosure without redemption
Where to find help
Davenport is in Scott County, but the City and County handle different questions. Check the address and use the office responsible for that property; a shared administrative-center location does not change which assessor has jurisdiction.
Scott County's Treasurer publishes property-tax account and tax-sale information. Use the actual parcel and current notice to check a balance or sale status.
