Forest City seller questions, answered

Do I have to repair or clean out my Forest City house before selling to you?

We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us. Tell us what you know about the property as it sits; you do not need to start a repair or cleanout project before asking about a sale.

How soon will I get a written offer, and when would a sale close?

We give written cash offers in 24 hours. We provide the written offer and terms before you decide whether to accept. Closing takes place through a title company. The closing date depends on the written terms for that property.

What costs and transfer taxes do you pay?

When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. When you sell to us, we pay the transfer tax. Mortgage balances, liens, back taxes, and your share of current property taxes are separate; review the written terms and property-specific closing figures.

How do Cash Offer and EZ Sale compare?

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. Cash Offer — USA Home Buyers buys directly. 30 days or less. Lower price. No repairs, no commissions, no closing costs. EZ Sale — goes to one of our partners. 60 days or less. Higher price than the Cash Offer. Still no repairs, no commissions, no closing costs.

Can I sell if there is a mortgage, lien, or overdue tax bill?

You can ask about the property before you know every amount. Mortgage balances, liens, back taxes, and your share of current property taxes are separate from the closing-cost and transfer-tax promises. The amounts and settlement treatment depend on the property; review the written terms and closing figures.

What if a sheriff’s sale is scheduled?

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. A postponement does not change legal deadlines. The current notice and court papers still control the sale date and deadlines.
