For an ordinary taxable sale, Michigan 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. State and county exemptions are separate, so check the property, sale value, and any exemption for the actual sale. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including Michigan state and county real estate transfer taxes. Mortgage balances, liens, back taxes, and your share of current property taxes are separate.

An appointed personal representative can generally sell estate real estate during administration without a separate court order, while acting for the estate and following the will and any court restrictions. A state or county public administrator needs court approval before selling estate real estate. Being named in a will alone does not give someone the personal representative’s powers; the deed, will, and appointment papers help determine who can sign and what is needed to close.

A sale may still be possible if the required payoff or redemption can be completed before the applicable deadline. 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.

Yes. An ordinary sale generally leaves the existing lease in place, and the buyer takes the property subject to the remaining lease term. Selling does not by itself make the tenant move. Ending a tenancy depends on the lease and applicable notice rules. Give the buyer the lease, deposit records, and tenant notices so those obligations can be addressed at closing.
