Hattiesburg, MS illustrative estimate
Hattiesburg home sale calculator: what you'd actually put in your pocket
The sale price is only the starting point. What matters is what you keep after your payoff, repairs, fees, and other costs come out. That's your net proceeds.
The home value starts with Zillow’s typical value for the area. Your house may be worth more or less. You can change the value and every cost below. Adjust anything you know, including your payoff, repair or credit risk, cleanout cost, agent commission, and how long you expect to carry the property.

See what you'd actually walk away with.
Your starting home-value estimate may come from a public source when one is available. You can edit that estimate and each cost input above; your property's actual value and closing costs may differ.
Choose the condition that best fits your home, then update the value, mortgage payoff, and cost inputs with what you know. This is an estimate for local costs, not a verified local tax rate.

Selling a Hattiesburg house in a difficult situation
Foreclosure
Fire damage
You keep the insurance money and don't have to worry about the house anymore — we'll take care of it.
Liens and back taxes
When you sell to us, we can set it up so you don't have to prepay anything — it comes out at closing.
Tenants
You're done — no turnover, no repairs, no more bad tenants.
Code violations
The fines don't stop while you think about it. They pile up, they add new ones, and every month takes another bite out of what the property is worth to you. We can buy it quickly, violations and all, so you stop the bleeding and keep your equity.
Divorce
You only have to agree on one thing — the price. After that we handle the rest, so there's nothing to argue about over repairs, contractors, showings, or who pays for what.
Cash Offer or EZ Sale: compare the written numbers
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.

Mississippi deed recording fees
Mississippi has no state real-estate transfer tax. Deeds are still subject to recording fees under a statutory schedule, and the county Chancery Clerk applies the applicable fee and any other recording charge. As a simple example, a $300,000 sale has no state transfer-tax charge; the deed-recording fee is separate and depends on the recorded document and applicable fee schedule.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Mortgage balances, liens, back taxes, and your share of current property taxes remain separate amounts.

What Hattiesburg sellers should know
Hattiesburg reaches into two counties
The city boundary intersects Forrest and Lamar Counties.
Historic-district work can need City review
Hattiesburg lists five locally designated historic districts and describes a Certificate of Appropriateness review process. If a property is in a designated district and you are considering exterior work, we can help identify the City's Historic Preservation Planner and the procedure that applies. A district designation is specific to the mapped area, not every older house in the city.
What our sellers say
“LISTEN, PROPERTY TAXES GOT TOO HIGH FOR MY FIXED INCOME. SOLD IT TO THEM. WALKED AWAY WITH CASH. GLAD IT'S OVER.”
“Facing foreclosure ... Very stressful time... They handled it professionally and got me out of the debt...”
“no open houses. no realtors tracking dirt in. just a straight cash sale for our house so we could move. Glad it's over.”

Questions about selling a house in Hattiesburg
Can I sell a Hattiesburg house as-is?
Yes. We buy houses as-is in any condition — no repairs, cleaning, or cleanout required to sell to us. Tell us about the house and we can review a direct Cash Offer or the EZ Sale option.
Who can sign when an inherited house is still in an estate?
An executor may sell estate real property before the estate closes when the will grants authority to sell or the Chancery Court orders the sale. Being a family member or heir alone does not authorize you to sign for the estate. The will, appointment, court order, and title determine who may convey. If you need an estate attorney, we can help you find one.
What if a mortgage foreclosure sale is scheduled?
Most Mississippi deed-of-trust foreclosures proceed nonjudicially under Miss. Code Ann. §89-1-55. The trustee must post notice at the courthouse and publish it for three consecutive weeks; the sale is held at the courthouse door. After a completed nonjudicial sale under this section, there is no right of redemption. The deed of trust and notice state the process and sale date; we can review them with you.
Does selling a tenant-occupied house end the lease?
No. A sale does not by itself cancel a tenant’s lease or make the home vacant. We can review the lease, amendments, rent and deposit records, and notices with you; possession and any security-deposit balance depend on the documents and applicable requirements. Mississippi law requires a written itemization of deductions and return of any refundable balance within 45 days after the tenancy ends, possession is returned, and the tenant demands it.
Will selling a house clear an open code case or repair order?
A change of owner does not by itself close an open code-enforcement case or release a recorded lien. The issuing city or county notice and current local code determine what deadlines, repairs, fines, liens, or occupancy consequences remain. When you sell to us, we are the buyer, so the repairs become our job; we can review the notice and title information with you.
What happens to insurance proceeds after a fire-damage sale?
You keep your insurance proceeds when we buy the house exactly as it stands. If you still have a mortgage, your lender may have a say in how that check is used — we'll walk through it with you.
Are there Mississippi transfer taxes or deed fees when I sell?
Mississippi has no state real-estate transfer tax, but deeds are subject to recording fees under a statutory schedule, and a county Chancery Clerk applies the applicable fee and any other recording charge. For example, a $300,000 sale has no state transfer-tax charge; deed-recording fees are separate. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Mortgage balances, liens, back taxes, and your share of current property taxes remain separate.
