Money and choices
Compare what you keep, not just the sale price
Net proceeds are what remains after the costs tied to the sale. Compare the written price with repairs, commissions, other selling costs, mortgage payoff, liens, taxes, and the time you carry the house. The amounts depend on the property and the sale path.
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.

Useful questions about selling in Hudson
Can I sell my Hudson house as-is?
We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us. Share what you know about the condition, access, occupancy, and timing so we can review the actual house.
How soon can I get a written cash offer?
We give written cash offers in 24 hours. Start with the Hudson address and the property details you know.
How do Cash Offer and EZ Sale compare?
Cash Offer is a direct purchase by USA Home Buyers, 30 days or less and a lower price. EZ Sale goes to one of our partners, 60 days or less and a higher price than the Cash Offer. Both are listed with no repairs, no commissions, and no closing costs. You compare the written numbers and choose what works for you.
What costs affect how much I keep from a sale?
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Your mortgage payoff, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate amounts that can affect what you keep. Compare the written price with the actual amounts for your property, rather than only comparing sale prices.
What is Wisconsin's real estate transfer fee?
On a sale that isn't exempt, Wisconsin charges the seller 30 cents for every $100 of the sale price, or part of $100. The fee is collected when the deed is recorded. Some transfers are exempt, and recording and other closing charges are separate. When you sell to us, we pay the Wisconsin real estate transfer fee.
Can I sell a Wisconsin house while it is in foreclosure?
Possibly, if a sale can close and resolve the debt in time. Wisconsin mortgage foreclosure goes through court. The right to redeem can continue after the sheriff’s auction until the court confirms the sale, but it requires full payment of the foreclosure judgment, interest, costs, and applicable later taxes — not just overdue installments. Have the actual judgment, payoff, and confirmation-hearing date checked promptly. Selling first may help protect any equity you have. 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.
Can I call before I have all the paperwork together?
Yes. Start with the property address, what you know about the house, and the question or deadline in front of you. A deed, estate paper, lease, tax notice, payoff, lien notice, or court paper may help answer a specific question. Before closing, the title company needs to review the title and confirm who can sign.
Can you review a tenant-occupied Hudson house?
Yes. Tell us who lives there, what the lease says if you have it, what access is possible, and what timing matters. The lease, access, and possession plan shape the practical sale discussion.
Can I ask about selling an inherited Hudson house?
Yes. You can start the conversation before every estate paper is gathered. Before closing, the person signing and that person’s authority to sell need to be clear; share the deed and estate papers you have with the title company or your attorney.
Can I sell a house with a code notice or fire damage?
Yes. We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us. Share any notice, known condition, access issue, or deadline so the property can be reviewed. A sale discussion does not answer what a municipal notice requires.
What if the property has liens or back taxes?
A sale does not by itself clear a mortgage balance, lien, or back-tax amount. Those amounts are separate from the closing costs and Wisconsin real estate transfer fee we pay when you sell to us. The title company checks the actual payoffs and settlement details for the property.
Is Hudson the same jurisdiction as nearby North Hudson or Minnesota?
No. The City of Hudson, Village of North Hudson, Towns of Hudson and Troy, St. Croix County, and Minnesota are distinct jurisdictions. The City describes the St. Croix River as Hudson’s western boundary, with Minnesota across the river. A metro label or map does not establish which jurisdiction contains a particular address.
Start with a question
You can call before you have every document or decision figured out. Start with the property address and the facts you know; we can talk through what question to check next.
Call 888-274-5006.
Local help with Hudson-area jurisdiction questions
The City of Hudson’s quick facts identify the St. Croix River as the City’s western boundary and distinguish the City from nearby municipalities. Check the municipality for the actual property before relying on a local record or office; the City’s overview is not an address-level jurisdiction determination.
