Compare the choices
Listing may fit if you want to prepare the house for buyers and can manage showings, negotiations, inspections, and buyer financing. Ask an agent for a written estimate of likely costs and net proceeds. A direct as-is sale gives you another written number to compare when repairs, cleanout, occupancy, or a deadline affects what you want to take on. Compare the likely net and timing—not just the sale price.
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.

Idaho Falls describes its River Walk along both sides of the Snake River. The City’s map page also includes a Downtown parking map and zoning, land-use, and overlay information. These are useful orientation points, not parcel boundaries or a finding about a particular property; check the address in the official map.
The City has a Historic Preservation Commission. If you think a property has a historic designation or may need review, confirm that for the actual address rather than inferring it from a nearby area or map label.

Bonneville County’s Courts page directs people to the Seventh Judicial District and iCourt. For a specific house, ask the court, title company, and an estate attorney to review the actual case, recorded documents, estate papers, and any court orders before identifying who can sign.

Idaho has no state real estate transfer tax. A deed still has to be recorded with the county, and the recording fee depends on the county and document; check Bonneville County for the current amount. Idaho property-tax bills are mailed in November. Payment is due December 20, or you can pay half by December 20 and the rest by June 20 of the next year. Check the actual parcel account and closing allocation.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate.

Often, you can still sell if the closing happens before the trustee’s sale. With a deed of trust, the lender can foreclose without going to court. The notice of default is recorded with the county and mailed to you. A trustee’s sale cannot happen until at least 120 days after the notice of sale is mailed. The notice must be published once a week for four weeks, with the last publication at least 30 days before the sale, and the trustee must try to serve an adult occupant and post the notice.
You can usually reinstate the loan within 115 days after the notice of default is recorded by paying the overdue amount and allowed costs and fees. Principal that would not be due without the default is excluded, but any amount already due still has to be paid. For a covered primary-home loan from a regulated lender when the home has a homeowner’s exemption, a loan-change request form comes with the notice of default. If the lender receives it within 30 days, the sale cannot happen until the lender answers. A trustee can postpone a sale at the lender’s request by announcing it at the sale; each postponement can be no more than 30 days and may be repeated. For covered primary-home loans from a regulated lender, the trustee must mail at least 14 days’ notice before holding a postponed sale.
After a trustee’s sale, there is no right to buy the house back. After a court foreclosure sale, the owner can generally redeem within six months, or one year if the land is more than 20 acres. A contract to sell during a trustee-sale foreclosure must include the notice required by Idaho law; you have five business days to cancel, and no money or interest in the house can change hands until those five days pass.
If a trustee's sale is scheduled, tell us the date right away so we can try to close before it.
