Auburn, New York · Cayuga County
When you sell to us, we can set it up so you don't have to prepay anything — it comes out at closing.

When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Your liens are paid off from the sale at closing.
Closing costs are separate from your mortgage balance, lien payoffs, back taxes, and your share of current property taxes. Those amounts are checked separately: the lender, lienholder, or tax office gives the current figure and instructions, and the title company puts applicable items in the settlement figures.
A tax assessment or an old statement is not a current payoff. The office or creditor named on the bill or notice can confirm what is due and whether any case or sale notice is active.
If you have them, bring the property tax bill or notice, lien or court papers, mortgage statement, parcel number, and any letter showing a payoff or case number. Start with what is in front of you; you do not need to assemble a complete file before calling.
The lender or other creditor provides its current payoff and release instructions. The tax-collecting office named on the bill or notice confirms the account and any tax-enforcement status. The title company checks ownership and recorded claims for the sale, then coordinates the payoff information needed for settlement.
The Cayuga County Clerk's online records can help you find recorded documents, but the county warns that online records may be unavailable and the search is not a complete title search. A title company checks the property records for the specific transaction.
Think the payoff is more than the house is worth? Ask us — we've gotten lenders to come down before.
If you have a current payoff statement or tax notice, keep it handy. The creditor or tax office confirms the amount and instructions for your property.
Tell us the Auburn address, what you know about the lien or back taxes, and any timing in the notice. You can start with the information you have.
We give written cash offers in 24 hours. If you want to proceed, you receive written terms before you commit, so you can review the proposed price, payoff treatment, and other terms before deciding.
If you choose to move forward, the title company checks ownership and recorded claims. The lender, lienholder, or tax office confirms the current payoff and release instructions for the property.
The title company prepares the final settlement figures, including the sale price, applicable costs, and verified payoffs. Closing takes place through a title company.
The Cayuga County Clerk is the county office for deed and recording questions. Its online-record search is only a starting point: some records may not be available online, and an online search is not a full title search. Ask the Clerk about county recording information; the title company checks the record for the specific sale.

A county assessment record is not the amount currently due. Use the office named on the tax bill or enforcement notice to check the account, payoff, and any current case or sale information. Cayuga County Real Property Services is a starting point for county assessment and parcel-record questions.
A property-tax matter and a lender's mortgage-foreclosure case are separate. Keep the notices and case records distinct, and confirm dates with the office or court named on each one; do not assume a change to one process changes the other.

New York's state transfer-tax baseline is generally $2 for each $500 or fraction of consideration when it exceeds $500, subject to statutory classifications and exceptions. The title or closing professional confirms what applies to the deed and transaction; this baseline is not a property-specific total.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Mortgage balances, liens, back taxes, and your share of current property taxes are separate from that promise.
Use the Auburn home-sale net proceeds calculator with your own estimated value, mortgage payoff, lien or tax amount, repairs, and carrying costs. Just an estimate — the actual number could be more or less depending on the home's condition.
Here's what sellers have said about working with us.
“Paychex offered me a position at their Scottsdale office and I had five weeks. My house in Irondequoit was fine but I couldn't do open houses and wait on financing. USA Home Buyers closed nine days after I accepted. I was in Arizona before my start date.”
“Monroe County family court, sale required. Park Avenue condo, beautiful neighborhood, but neither of us could buy out the other and we both needed the money to start over. USA Home Buyers gave us a written offer the same week we called. Both attorneys said yes, closed in thirteen days.”
“I was behind on my mortgage after a medical situation. New York judicial foreclosure takes 12-24 months, but once the bank files in Monroe County Supreme Court, your options narrow fast. USA Home Buyers explained exactly where I stood and closed before the foreclosure judgment. I walked out with enough to start over.”
