Compare the choices

Listing, a direct as-is sale, Cash Offer, or EZ Sale

List with an agent or sell on your own

A listing may fit when the house is ready to show and you have time for preparation and buyer access. Compare a realistic sale estimate after repairs, cleanout, showings, inspection responses, commissions, utilities, insurance, property taxes, and the time you may carry the house—not just the asking price.

Ask for a direct as-is offer

You can compare written price and terms without first repairing, cleaning, or emptying the house. Put the property's payoff, tax status, liens, occupancy, title questions, and timing beside the number you are considering.

We have two ways to buy. Compare the Cash Offer and EZ Sale terms and written numbers below. The calculator can help you compare a possible listing net with an offer.

Cash Offer or EZ Sale: compare the written numbers

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.

Michigan and Newaygo County transfer taxes

For an ordinary taxable sale, Michigan's state real estate transfer tax is $3.75 for each $500 of the property's value at the time of sale, or part of $500. The county tax is generally another 55 cents for each $500, or part of $500. At that Newaygo County rate, a $100,000 sale has $750 in state tax and $110 in county tax, $860 total. State and county exemptions are separate; the amount depends on the property, sale value, and any applicable exemption.

When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including Michigan state and county real estate transfer taxes. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate.

A house with tenants

We can consider a tenant-occupied house. Lease terms, access, and possession timing are part of comparing the written options with a listing plan.

If a mortgage foreclosure sale is scheduled

A sale may still be possible if the required payoff or redemption can be completed before the applicable deadline. Michigan mortgage foreclosure auctions are commonly called sheriff's sales. In a foreclosure by advertisement, six months after the sale is the most common redemption period, but shorter and longer periods apply. Redemption requires the sale amount plus required interest and charges, not just the missed payments. Have the title company or an attorney confirm the sale status, exact deadline, and amount needed before relying on a closing date.

Our agreement of sale will often get a sheriff's sale postponed so we can close. Signing alone doesn't postpone it automatically; we use the agreement to ask for the postponement, and it works more often than people think.

When will I get a written cash offer?

How do I compare a direct sale with listing?

Put the written numbers beside likely repairs, cleanout, showings, commissions, inspection responses, carrying costs, property-specific balances, and the time you expect to wait. A house ready to show may fit a listing; an as-is offer gives you another option to compare without first taking on preparation.

What transfer taxes apply in Newaygo County?

For an ordinary taxable sale, Michigan state real estate transfer tax is $3.75 for each $500 of value, or part of $500. The county tax is generally another 55 cents for each $500, or part. At that county rate, a $100,000 sale has $750 in state tax and $110 in county tax, $860 total. State and county exemptions are separate. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including Michigan state and county real estate transfer taxes. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate.

Can a Michigan sheriff's sale be postponed if I sell?

Our agreement of sale will often get a sheriff's sale postponed so we can close. Signing alone doesn't postpone it automatically; we use the agreement to ask for the postponement, and it works more often than people think. Use the date and instructions on your actual notice; a title company or attorney can check the sale status, exact deadline, and amount required for your property.

Who can sign for an inherited Fremont house?

The person who signs depends on the ownership and any estate or court authority. Newaygo County Probate Court publishes estate procedures; the title company can review the property records and confirm who is authorized to sign.

Can I compare an offer if tenants still live in the house?

Yes. We can consider a tenant-occupied house; lease terms, access, and possession timing are part of comparing the written options.
