Can I Sell My Green Bay House Before 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.
Whether you have a lender notice, court papers, or a date on the Brown County Sheriff's sale list, we can review whether a sale may close in time. If the auction has happened, Wisconsin's redemption period may still apply until the court confirms the sale. We buy houses as-is in Green Bay and Brown County, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us.

How we help you work toward closing
When you contact us, we review the property as-is, title, payoff, occupancy, seller authority, and the stage of the foreclosure. You get a written cash offer and written terms before you commit, and we close through a title company.

Mortgage foreclosure or property-tax sale?
Wisconsin mortgage foreclosure goes through court under Wis. Stat. Chapter 846. After a sheriff's auction, the right to redeem can continue until the court confirms the sale. To redeem, you must pay the full foreclosure judgment, interest, costs, and applicable later taxes—not just overdue installments. We can promptly review the actual judgment, payoff, and confirmation-hearing date with you.
A delinquent-property-tax matter is separate from a mortgage foreclosure and follows its own process and deadlines. We can review the notice with you and point you to the Brown County Treasurer for tax questions.
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.
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.
The current lender payoff, other liens, title work, and written sale terms all affect what can be completed at closing. We can review those items with you before you decide whether the offer works.
What happens next
- 1. Contact us. We review the property and where the foreclosure stands.
- 2. Review the written offer and terms. You decide whether to proceed before you commit.
- 3. Work through payoff and title. If you choose to proceed, we coordinate with the title company on payoff information, title, and the closing file.
- 4. Close through a title company. We can close as fast as 7 days when title and closing details allow. The closing statement shows the payoffs and proceeds for your transaction.
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.
