Manitowoc, WI · Manitowoc County · Back taxes and liens
When you sell to us, we can set it up so you don't have to prepay anything — it comes out at closing.
Yes. USA Home Buyers buys houses as-is in Manitowoc and Manitowoc County, Wisconsin, including houses with liens or back taxes. We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us. You can start with the address and whatever notice or payoff information you have.
Call 888-274-5006 to talk through the property, or use the form to ask for a cash offer.
Share the property address and what you know about the tax notice, lien, creditor, or payoff. You can start the conversation before you have every document.
We'll give you a written cash offer within 24 hours.
Tell us the address and what you know about the notice, lien, or tax account.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Your liens are paid off from the sale at closing.
The closing-cost promise does not pay your mortgage balance, liens, back taxes, or your share of current property taxes. Those amounts are checked separately and, for a sale to us, lien payoffs are handled from the sale at closing—not by you upfront.
A lien is a claim that can affect the property or the money due at closing. A payoff is the current amount and instructions from the creditor or tax office to satisfy an obligation. The amount can change, so use current information rather than an old bill or document.
Start with the Manitowoc property address. A tax bill or notice, parcel number, creditor or court notice, current payoff information, and recorded deed or mortgage can help identify the right account and records. Bring what you have; you can call before everything is gathered.
The county tax office or creditor confirms the current balance and payoff or release instructions. The title company checks ownership and recorded claims for the sale and works through the property-specific closing figures. An online record or older notice is a starting point, not a current payoff amount.
Think the payoff is more than the house is worth? Ask us — we've gotten lenders to come down before.
Tell us the address, the notice or lien you know about, and what timing concerns you. Start with what you have; you do not need to finish the paperwork before calling.
We put the offer and sale terms in writing before you commit. Review the price, responsibilities, payoff treatment, and closing terms before deciding whether to move forward.
Written offer and written terms before you commit; title-company closing.
If you choose to proceed, the title company checks ownership and recorded claims. The creditor or tax office confirms the current payoff information and release instructions that apply to the property.
The title company prepares the transaction figures, including sale proceeds and the payoff amounts and charges that apply. You can review the written terms and closing figures before the title-company closing.
The address and the notice tell you which office or process to check. A property-tax matter is separate from a lender's mortgage foreclosure; use the tax notice for tax questions and the court or sheriff records for a mortgage case.
Use the Manitowoc County Treasurer's real-estate search and Treasurer's office information to check the county tax record and find the right contact for a current balance or notice question. Confirm payoff details with the office handling the account.
The Manitowoc County Register of Deeds is the county office for recorded land documents. Use its records to look for recorded deeds, mortgages, and other documents affecting the property; ask the creditor or tax office for a current payoff amount.
Wisconsin mortgage foreclosure is a court case. A right to redeem can continue after the sheriff's auction until the court confirms the sale, but redemption requires the full foreclosure judgment, interest, costs, and applicable later taxes—not just missed installments. Check the actual judgment and current case status; this is not the property-tax process.

Wisconsin Circuit Court Access · Wisconsin Statutes Chapter 846
On a sale that isn't exempt, Wisconsin charges the seller 30 cents for every $100 of the sale price, or part of $100. It 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.

Here's what sellers have said about working with us.
“Pierce Manufacturing transferred me to their Bradenton, Florida facility. I had eight weeks to get to Florida. My house on the Westside needed a few updates but I wasn't going to spend the summer on that. USA Home Buyers gave me a number in twenty-four hours. I said yes and closed in eleven days. I made it to Bradenton two weeks early.”
“After the plant I worked at outside Oshkosh restructured and cut my position, I was behind on payments within three months. The lender filed in Winnebago County Circuit Court. By that point I had a judgment date looming. USA Home Buyers had a written offer in twenty-four hours and we closed in thirteen days. The judgment was dismissed.”
“The Winnebago County divorce required the house sold before settlement could be finalized. We'd lived in Menominee Park for sixteen years — good memories, but we needed to move on. One written offer from USA Home Buyers, both signed it in the same afternoon, closed in fourteen days.”
When you sell to us, we can set it up so you don't have to prepay anything — it comes out at closing. We buy houses as-is in Manitowoc and Manitowoc County. The current amounts and any payoff or release instructions still need to be checked for the property.
Start with the property address and whatever you have: a tax notice or bill, parcel number, recorded document, creditor payoff, or court notice. You can call before you have every record or a final payoff amount.
The creditor or tax office provides current balance and payoff information. The title company checks ownership and recorded claims and works through the payoff and release details for the sale. Use the current notice and the office responsible for that account.
No. A delinquent property-tax matter and a mortgage foreclosure involve different debts, records, notices, and deadlines. Wisconsin mortgage foreclosure is a court process; follow the specific tax notice and do not use a mortgage-sale date as a tax-case deadline.
Think the payoff is more than the house is worth? Ask us — we've gotten lenders to come down before. Bring the current lender payoff or tax notice so the amount and closing figures can be checked for your property.
We talk through the address, house, records, and situation. If you want to consider a sale, you receive written offer terms before you commit. If you choose to proceed, the title company works through ownership, payoff information, and closing figures before the title-company closing.
