Hammond, Louisiana · Tangipahoa Parish
When you sell to us, we can set it up so you don't have to prepay anything — it comes out at closing.
Yes. USA Home Buyers buys houses as-is in Hammond and Tangipahoa Parish, Louisiana, including houses with back taxes or liens. We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us.
The current balance and payoff instructions still need to be confirmed for the property. You can call before you have every record in hand.
Call 888-274-5006 to talk through the house or ask for a cash offer.
We'll give you a written cash offer within 24 hours.
Share the address and what you know about the tax notice, lien, or payoff.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Your liens are paid off from the sale at closing.
Mortgage balances, back taxes, and your share of current property taxes are separate from closing costs. The title company uses current records, while the creditor or office named on a bill or payoff statement confirms the amount and instructions for that claim.
A tax balance, a recorded mortgage or judgment, and a lender's payoff statement are different records. You do not need to sort them out before calling.
Start with the property address. A parcel number, current tax bill or notice, lender payoff statement, lien or court paper, deed, mortgage, or case number can help identify which balance or record needs checking. Call with what you have; you do not have to gather everything first.
The Tangipahoa Parish Sheriff collects property taxes. The Assessor handles assessment and parcel information. The Clerk of Court indexes recorded conveyance and mortgage documents, and the title company checks ownership and recorded claims for a sale.
Think the payoff is more than the house is worth? Ask us — we've gotten lenders to come down before.
Share the address, the notice or payoff you have seen, and any timing that concerns you. You can start before you have every balance or document.
We review the property as it stands and put the proposed offer and terms in writing before you decide. Written offer and written terms before you commit; title-company closing.
If you choose to proceed, the title company checks ownership and recorded claims for the transaction. The relevant office or creditor confirms its current amount and payoff or release instructions.
The title company prepares the settlement figures using the agreed terms, confirmed payoffs, and applicable closing costs. Review the figures with the closing company before signing.
Use the office that matches the paper or question in front of you. A tax account, an assessment record, and a recorded land document answer different questions.
The Sheriff collects property taxes. Use its current tax-payment information for collection questions and confirm the balance for the exact parcel with the office. For a sale notice, follow the notice and ask the office named on it to confirm the current status and date.
The Assessor handles assessment and parcel-information questions. Its property-tax page routes tax collection to the Sheriff; the Assessor's property search is a starting point for an address-based parcel lookup.
This department indexes recorded conveyance and mortgage documents. Its online Land Records eSearch is not address-searchable; the Clerk directs address-based lookup to the Assessor's site.
The Civil Department is the local filing and contact route for civil matters. For a mortgage-foreclosure case, use the court papers and confirm the current case or sale information with the court, Clerk, lender, or Sheriff handling it.
A tax-sale notice concerns unpaid property taxes; a mortgage foreclosure concerns a lender's mortgage claim. They are separate matters, with different records and dates. For a tax balance, start with the Tangipahoa Parish Sheriff, which collects property taxes. If you received a sale notice, use the notice and the office named on it to confirm the parcel's current status and date.
Louisiana mortgage foreclosures use a court proceeding, either ordinary or executory process. The lender's payoff can include the loan balance, interest, attorney fees, and court costs; a Sheriff's notice of seizure is an important case paper. Check the actual court and Sheriff records for the property rather than treating a tax notice and a mortgage case as the same process.

No. A property-tax notice and a lender’s mortgage-foreclosure case are separate matters with separate records. Use the notice and the office handling that matter to check its status and dates; do not use one process’s dates to assume the other’s status.
