When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Your liens are paid off from the sale at closing.
A lien is a legal claim that can affect the property or money due at closing. The closing-cost promise does not pay your mortgage balance, liens, back taxes, or your share of current property taxes; those are separate amounts. The lender, creditor, or tax office confirms its current figures, and the title company uses the sale information to prepare the closing figures.
An old bill or recorded document can help identify the question, but it may not show the current payoff. Ask the office or creditor for the current balance and payment or release instructions for that account.
The address is enough to start. If they are handy, bring or mention:
The Tax Collector or creditor confirms its own current balance and instructions. The Terrebonne Parish Clerk of Court provides routes for civil and recorded-property documents, and the title company checks the records relevant to a particular sale. Call before everything is assembled.
Think the payoff is more than the house is worth? Ask us — we've gotten lenders to come down before.
Tell us the Houma address, what you know about the house, and the notice or payoff question. Start with what you have; you do not need to work out the balance before calling.
We give written cash offers in 24 hours. You can review the proposed offer, payoff treatment, responsibilities, and closing terms in writing before you decide whether to proceed. 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 lender, creditor, or tax office confirms the current balance and payment or release instructions used for settlement.
The closing figures show the sale price, confirmed payoffs, applicable taxes and costs, and what remains after those items. The sale closes through a title company.
Use the office or notice that matches the question. Property-tax account questions and mortgage-foreclosure papers concern different matters; check each with the office named on its current notice. A city name or mailing address alone does not confirm a parcel's tax account or title status.
The Terrebonne Parish Sheriff's Office tax-notice page provides the local Tax Collector contact route. For property-tax payment questions, the Assessor directs sellers to the Tax Collector's Office at 985-857-0230. Ask that office about the current account and follow the instructions on your bill or notice.
Use the Assessor for assessment and parcel-record questions. The Assessor lists its office at Government Tower and 985-876-6620. For property-tax payment questions, contact the Tax Collector instead.
Civil Records, including probate records, and the Conveyance/Copy and Recording departments are separate routes for parish records. The Clerk lists its office at 7856 Main Street, Houma, LA 70360, and 985-868-5660. Use the department that matches your record question.
The Sheriff's online services link to this sale portal. If your paperwork names a Sheriff's sale, use the current notice and its official contact route to confirm the status and date. A property-tax account question belongs with the Tax Collector; do not use one notice to infer the status of another matter.
Louisiana's basic statutory fee to record a deed is $100 for a document of one to five pages. Longer documents, extra indexed names, and other services can add charges; the exact recording total depends on the documents and services used. This filing fee is not the full cost of a closing.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate.

Use the Houma home-sale net proceeds calculator with your estimates for value, mortgage payoff, liens or back taxes, repairs, and other costs. Just an estimate — the actual number could be more or less depending on the home's condition.
Yes. We buy houses as-is in Houma and Terrebonne Parish, including houses with back taxes or liens. When you sell to us, we can set it up so you don't have to prepay anything — it comes out at closing. The creditor or tax office confirms current figures and instructions as the sale moves forward.
The Terrebonne Parish Tax Collector or the creditor named on the account confirms its current amount and instructions. The Clerk of Court has separate routes for civil and recorded-property records, and the title company checks ownership and recorded claims for the specific sale.
No. A property-tax account or tax-sale notice and a lender’s mortgage-foreclosure case are different matters. Use the Tax Collector route for a property-tax account, and use the court or Sheriff named on mortgage-foreclosure papers to check that case. Do not use one notice to infer the status or dates for the other matter.
Start with the Houma property address. If handy, gather the parcel number, latest tax bill or notice, lien or court paper, current mortgage or creditor payoff statement, deed or recorded-document information, and any Sheriff’s sale notice or case number. You can call before you have everything.
