Brattleboro, VT Foreclosure
Can I Sell My Brattleboro House in Foreclosure?
If you still own the house, you may be able to sell and close before the deadline in your court order. We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us.

We review the house as-is and the notice or court order with you, then give you written offer terms before you decide. If you choose to proceed, a title company works through title, payoff, and lien details with you. If a foreclosure sale is scheduled, tell us the date right away so we can try to close before it.
You don't need to pay off your back taxes before we settle. We buy houses with back taxes and liens — payoffs get handled through the closing, not by you upfront.
Your mortgage, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate from closing costs. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including Vermont's property transfer tax and Clean Water Surcharge.
Which sale is involved?
A Vermont mortgage foreclosure is handled through court. The court order tells you whether it is strict foreclosure or a court-ordered sale. In strict foreclosure, there is no auction: ownership ends when the redemption period in the order expires. A request to postpone a sale does not extend that strict-foreclosure deadline. Read 12 V.S.A. §4941 and §4945.
A Brattleboro tax sale is different: it concerns unpaid municipal property taxes and follows the Town's separate process and deadlines. A mortgage-sale postponement does not change a tax-sale date. The Town explains its process on the Brattleboro Tax Sale Process page.
If the payoff is the problem
Think the payoff is more than the house is worth? Ask us — we've gotten lenders to come down before.
If you choose to proceed, the title company can review the current payoff and other lien details against the written sale terms.

It's real estate. Sometimes there are bumps in the road. We won't disappear when that happens, and we'll be fighting to get this to the closing table.

Can I sell my Brattleboro house while it is in foreclosure?
Often, yes, if you still own the house and can close before the deadline in your court order. In strict foreclosure, that deadline is the redemption period; in a court-ordered sale, the order sets the sale process and date.
Is a Brattleboro tax sale the same as a mortgage foreclosure?
No. A mortgage foreclosure is a court case about mortgage debt. A Brattleboro tax sale concerns unpaid municipal taxes and follows the Town's separate process and deadlines. A change to one date does not change the other.
What if the mortgage payoff is more than my house is worth?
Think the payoff is more than the house is worth? Ask us — we've gotten lenders to come down before. The title company can review the current payoff and other lien details against the written terms if you choose to proceed.
