Money and choices

Compare what you keep, not just the sale price

The number to compare is what remains after the amounts that apply to your sale, not just the sale price. Compare written numbers with repairs, selling and carrying costs, mortgage payoff, liens, back taxes, and your share of current property taxes.

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 Iron Mountain

Can I sell my Iron Mountain house as-is?

We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us. Start with what you know about the house, its access, and your timing.

How soon can I get a written cash offer?

We give written cash offers in 24 hours. You receive written offer terms before you commit, and closing is through a title company.

What closing costs and transfer taxes do I pay when selling to you?

When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including Michigan state and county real estate transfer taxes. State and county exemptions are separate, so the title company confirms what applies to the sale. This does not pay your mortgage, liens, back taxes, or your share of current property taxes.

Can I sell my Michigan house if foreclosure is underway?

A sale may still be possible if the required payoff or redemption can be completed before the applicable deadline. Michigan mortgage foreclosure auctions are commonly called sheriff's sales. In a foreclosure by advertisement, six months after the sale is the most common redemption period, but shorter and longer periods apply. Redemption requires the sale amount plus required interest and charges, not just the missed payments. Have the title company or an attorney confirm the sale status, exact deadline, and amount needed before relying on a closing date. 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.

Do I need every document before I call?

No. You can call before you have everything figured out. Start with the property address, what you know about its condition, and your timing. A deed, loan or tax notice, lien notice, or court paper can help answer the next question, but you do not need a perfect file before asking.

Does the City of Iron Mountain assessor cover all of Dickinson County?

No. The City of Iron Mountain assessor describes its jurisdiction as the City of Iron Mountain. Dickinson County is a separate jurisdiction, so check which municipality the property is in before relying on a city assessment or office.

Local help

Which Iron Mountain or Dickinson County office should I check?

The City of Iron Mountain assessor describes its jurisdiction as the city. Dickinson County lists its communities separately and has a county court system with court locations in Iron Mountain. Use the office that matches the property and question, and confirm any foreclosure deadline against the actual notice and case status.
