How liens and payoffs work
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Your liens are paid off from the sale at closing.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including Virginia state and local recordation taxes, grantor tax and any applicable regional WMATA capital fee, regional congestion relief fee or regional transportation improvement fee. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate from the closing costs we pay.
The current payoff is not the same as an assessed value or an old bill. The creditor or tax office supplies the current amount and payment instructions; the title company checks recorded claims and uses those instructions in the closing figures. Read Virginia's grantor-tax law.
Start with the records you have
A tax bill or notice, lienholder or lender payoff statement, or court paper can help show what needs attention. Call with the property address and what you know; you do not have to assemble every record first. As the sale moves forward, the title company and the office or creditor named in the record confirm the current balance and payoff instructions.
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.
What happens next
Talk through the house and the notice
We start with the property address, its condition, and whatever you know about the lien or tax balance. You can call before you have every document.
Review written terms before deciding
We put the offer and terms in writing before you commit. You can review how the sale, payoffs, and closing costs are handled.
The title company checks claims and payoffs
If you decide to proceed, the title company checks ownership and recorded claims, then works with the lender, lienholder, or tax office on current payoff instructions.
Review the closing figures and close
The settlement statement shows the sale price, closing costs, payoffs, and the amount left after those items. Closing is through a title company.
Hillsville and Carroll County tax and records offices
Hillsville is Carroll County's county seat, but Town and County tax routes are separate. The property's location determines which account applies.
Carroll County Treasurer
County tax collection and account inquiries.
Carroll County Commissioner of the Revenue: Taxes
County real-estate assessment and tax information, separate from a current payoff.
Carroll County Circuit Court Clerk
County court and local-record information when a notice or case points you there.
A delinquent-tax matter and a lender's mortgage foreclosure are different processes. They involve different claims and responsible parties; the office, court, or lender named in a notice can confirm its current status. A tax-sale notice is not the same as a lender foreclosure notice.
Compare possible net proceeds
Compare the sale price with costs and payoffs to see what may remain for you. The calculator uses estimates you can change; the title company confirms transaction figures.
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 Hillsville liens and back taxes
Can I sell my Hillsville house if it has back taxes or liens?
Yes. USA Home Buyers buys houses with back taxes and liens. You can call before you have every notice or payoff figure; we discuss the property and the title company and responsible office confirm the current details as the sale moves forward.
When are liens and back taxes paid?
When you sell to us, your liens are paid from the sale at closing. You do not have to prepay back taxes before settlement. The title company uses current payoff instructions to show the amounts in the closing figures.
Which Hillsville or Carroll County office handles a property-tax question?
The Town of Hillsville has its own online billing route, while Carroll County's Treasurer handles County collection and account inquiries. Which account applies depends on the property's location. The County Commissioner of the Revenue provides assessment and tax information; that is different from a current payoff amount.
Are a tax-sale notice and a mortgage-foreclosure notice the same thing?
No. A delinquent-tax matter and a lender mortgage foreclosure involve different claims and responsible parties. The office, court, or lender named in the notice can confirm its current balance and status; the title company checks the recorded claims and payoff instructions for the sale.
What if the lender payoff is more than the house is worth?
Think the payoff is more than the house is worth? Ask us — we've gotten lenders to come down before.
What records help, and can I call before I have them?
A tax bill or sale notice, a lender or lienholder payoff statement, and any court paper can help identify the issue. You can call with the property address and what you know before you have those records assembled.
