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.

We'll give you a written cash offer within 24 hours. You receive the written offer and terms before you commit, and closing is through a title company. The closing date for a particular sale is set out in its written terms.

There is no single net amount for every house. What you keep depends on the written sale price and the costs and balances tied to the property. Compare possible proceeds after repairs, selling costs, mortgage payoff, liens, back taxes, and your share of current property taxes—not just the headline price.

When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including Michigan state and county real estate transfer taxes. For an ordinary taxable sale, Michigan's 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 $0.55 for each $500, or part of $500. At that county rate, a $100,000 sale has $750 in state tax and $110 in county tax, $860 total. State and county exemptions are separate, so the actual amount depends on the sale value and any exemption. Mortgage balances, liens, back taxes, and your share of current property taxes remain separate.

A sale may still be possible if the required payoff or redemption can be completed before the applicable deadline. Michigan mortgage foreclosure auctions are commonly called sheriff's sales. 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.
