Kokomo, IN Foreclosure
Can I Sell My Kokomo House Before Foreclosure?
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.
Yes, you may still have time to sell before the sheriff's sale if the sale can close and resolve the debt in time. Indiana mortgage foreclosures go through court. Before the sale, an owner can redeem by paying the full judgment, interest, and costs through the clerk or sheriff, depending on the stage of the case. Paying only overdue installments is not the same. Get the actual payoff and sale date checked promptly.
We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us.

How we help you work toward closing
Tell us the property address, what the lender says is owed, and the sheriff's-sale date shown on your notice. We review the house as-is and the information needed for a written offer. You see the written offer and terms before you commit, and the closing goes through a title company.
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. Keep following the current court and sale notices while the request is being made.
Mortgage foreclosure or tax sale?
An Indiana mortgage foreclosure goes through court and may lead to a sheriff's sale. A tax sale for delinquent property taxes is a separate process, with its own notices and dates. The mortgage judgment, interest, costs, and redemption information above apply to the mortgage case—not as a tax-sale deadline.
If your notice is about unpaid property taxes, use the date and instructions on that tax-sale notice and confirm them with the official county contact named there. Do not assume a mortgage-foreclosure timeline applies.
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.
Ask your lender for a current payoff. The title company will need to review the mortgage balance and any other liens against the sale proceeds before closing.
What happens next
- Call or send the Kokomo property address and tell us the sale date on your notice.
- We review the house and work toward a written cash offer. You receive written terms before you decide whether to accept.
- If you choose to move ahead, a title company reviews ownership, payoff statements, liens, and the closing figures.
- For a scheduled sheriff's sale, we use the signed agreement to ask for a postponement. Signing alone does not move the date; confirm any change with the appropriate official source.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Mortgage balances, liens, back taxes, and your share of current property taxes are separate from that promise.
It's real estate. Sometimes there are bumps in the road. We won't disappear when that happens, and we'll be fighting to get this to the closing table.
Local Howard County reference
The Howard County Recorder is the county office identified for property-record reference. For a mortgage or tax-sale date, use the current notice and confirm details with the official office handling that sale.
Indiana's mortgage-foreclosure statute and the Indiana Court of Appeals opinion in Wells Fargo Bank v. Tippecanoe Associates provide legal context for the mortgage process. Check your own case documents for the dates and requirements that apply to you.
Questions about selling before foreclosure in Kokomo
Can I sell my Kokomo house before a sheriff's sale?
You may still have time if a sale can close and resolve the debt before the scheduled date. Indiana mortgage foreclosures go through court. Check the actual payoff and sheriff's-sale date promptly.
Does signing an agreement postpone a sheriff's sale?
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.
Is a mortgage foreclosure the same as a tax sale?
No. They are separate processes with separate notices and deadlines. Use the current notice and official county instructions for the sale involved; do not apply mortgage-foreclosure dates or redemption details to a tax sale.
What if the 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. Get a current payoff from the lender so the title company can review the amount with the other property-specific figures.
What happens to back taxes and liens if I sell to you?
You don't need to pay off your back taxes before we settle. We buy houses with back taxes and liens — payoffs get handled through the closing, not by you upfront. Mortgage balances and your share of current property taxes are separate figures.
