Grand Rapids, MI · Kent County / Foreclosure
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. If a mortgage sheriff’s sale is coming up, we can review a direct cash-sale option while you verify the date, payoff, and title. If the sale already happened, Michigan’s post-sale redemption deadline depends on the property and case—check your actual records promptly. We buy houses as-is in Grand Rapids and Kent County, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us.

If you want to move forward, we put the offer and terms in writing before you commit. With an agreement in place, we use it to ask for a postponement; the agreement itself does not change the sale date. Confirm any changed date with the office handling the mortgage sale. The title company reviews the property record, payoff figures, and closing details so we can work toward a closing that fits the facts and available time.
Michigan mortgage foreclosure and Kent County tax foreclosure are different processes. A tax-auction date does not set a mortgage sheriff’s-sale or redemption deadline. Follow the notice for the type of sale you received.
A mortgage foreclosure is tied to a home loan and may proceed to a sheriff’s sale. Kent County’s tax-foreclosure auctions concern unpaid property taxes instead. The notices, offices, and deadlines are not interchangeable: check the current notice and confirm the status with the lender or official office named on it.
Think the payoff is more than the house is worth? Ask us — we've gotten lenders to come down before.
A current lender payoff and title review help show what must be accounted for before closing. We can talk through the house and the numbers with you; any lender decision is specific to that lender and transaction.
Call or use the form. Tell us the address, condition, and what date or notice you have, if you know it.
We give a written cash offer in 24 hours. You can review the written offer and terms before deciding whether to commit.
If you choose to proceed, a title company checks ownership, mortgage payoff, recorded liens, back taxes, and the current property-tax share for the closing.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Your mortgage payoff, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate from that promise.
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.
The Kent County Register of Deeds is the county land-records office. Its fee schedule is a starting point for recording-cost questions; it is not a mortgage-sale calendar or a tax-auction listing. For a sale date or case status, use the current notice and the official office named there.
A sale price is not the same as the amount left after mortgage payoff, repairs, selling costs, and the time you keep carrying the house. Change the calculator assumptions to compare estimates for your situation.

You can ask us to review a direct sale before the scheduled sale. Whether it can close in time depends on the current payoff, title, case status, and the time available. Contact us as soon as you can, and confirm the current date with the office handling the sale.

No. Kent County tax-foreclosure auctions are a separate matter from a lender’s mortgage foreclosure and sheriff’s sale. Use the notice and office for the specific matter in front of you; tax-sale and mortgage-sale dates are separate.
Think the payoff is more than the house is worth? Ask us — we've gotten lenders to come down before. A current payoff statement and title review can show what figures need to be addressed. We can’t promise a lender will reduce a payoff for a particular sale.
Michigan mortgage foreclosures can include a post-sale redemption period, but the applicable period and deadline depend on the property and case. Check the sale and redemption records promptly with a Michigan attorney or title professional rather than relying on a general date.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Your mortgage payoff, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes remain separate and are reviewed for the transaction.
Here's what sellers have said about working with us.
“Seventy-two and seventy-four. We'd been happy in our house near the SC Johnson campus for twenty-eight years. But my wife's mobility isn't what it was and we needed one floor, no stairs. USA Home Buyers gave us a fair offer and closed in eight days. We're in a ranch in Caledonia now and it's exactly right.”
“Our Southside house had storm drain flooding in the basement two years running — Racine County has been working on the infrastructure but it wasn't fixed yet. The second time, we had mold in the walls and the furnace sat in standing water and died. Repair estimate was $31,000. USA Home Buyers bought it as-is, knew the local flood situation, no surprises. Closed in seven days.”
“Foreclosure in Racine County moves slow — Wisconsin is judicial, so the bank has to go through Circuit Court. Mine was already 9 months in when I finally called USA Home Buyers. They put a written offer on my West Racine bungalow in 24 hours, closed before the sheriff's sale, and I walked away with enough equity to put a deposit on an apartment in Kenosha.”
