When you sell to us, we can set it up so you don't have to prepay anything — it comes out at closing.

Share the address and what you know about the notice, payoff, or tax account.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Your liens are paid off from the sale at closing.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including Tennessee's realty transfer tax. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate from the closing costs we pay. The creditor or tax office provides current payoff information, and the title company checks the figures and instructions for the specific sale.
The office or creditor named on a tax bill, lien notice, or payoff letter can confirm its current account or balance. The title company checks ownership and recorded claims and coordinates with the relevant office or creditor about payoff and release information. An assessment or recorded document is not necessarily the current amount needed to pay a claim off.
If you have them, bring the Martin-area property address, parcel number, tax bill or delinquent notice, creditor or case number, payoff statement, mortgage information, deed, or court paper. Start with what you know. You can call before you have all the records together.
Martin and Weakley County have separate jurisdictions. Use the actual address and the office or account shown on the notice; a mailing address alone does not confirm which jurisdiction or tax account applies.
Think the payoff is more than the house is worth? Ask us — we've gotten lenders to come down before.
Share the address and what you know about the lien, tax account, payoff, or deadline. You do not have to resolve the balance or collect every document before calling.
We discuss the house as it stands and give you a written cash offer and written terms before you decide whether to commit.
If you choose to proceed, the title company checks ownership and recorded claims. The relevant creditor or tax office confirms current amounts and payoff instructions for the sale.
The closing figures show the sale price, confirmed payoffs, applicable taxes and costs, and the amount remaining after those items. The sale closes through a title company.
County tax accounts, City property-tax routes, recorded land documents, and court records are different things. Match the notice or record to the office that handles that question, and confirm the current balance or status directly with that office.
Contact the Trustee about County real-estate-tax accounts and payments. The County also warns that unpaid delinquent taxes may be subject to a lawsuit and eventual property sale. Ask the Trustee about the current account, notice, and deadline. The office lists 116 W. Main St., Room 101, Dresden, and 731-364-3643.
The City website links a “Pay My Property Tax” route. Use the City route for a City account or notice, and the County Trustee for County tax questions. Check the address and notice rather than assuming which account applies.
Ask about assessment, ownership information, and property maps. An assessment record is not the same as a current lien or tax payoff. The office lists 116 W. Main St., Room G01, Dresden, and 731-364-3677.
Use the Register for recorded real-estate ownership documents and public-record searches. A recorded mortgage or deed does not by itself show the current payoff. The office lists 116 West Main Street, Room 102, Dresden, and 731-364-3646.
If the property owner has died, use the Clerk & Master’s probate and wills information as a local starting point. The right venue and person authorized to sign depend on the estate; confirm those details with the relevant office or an attorney. The County lists 116 W. Main Street, Dresden, and 731-364-3454.
If a City building-code notice or charge is part of the property record, contact City Hall about that notice. The City lists City Hall at 109 University Street, Martin, and the inspector at 731-587-3126, extension 1177.
Weakley County’s delinquent-tax information says unpaid taxes may lead to a lawsuit and eventual property sale. A mortgage foreclosure concerns a home loan and has its own notice and sale date. If you have a notice, follow the date and directions on that notice and contact the office or trustee named there.

Tennessee charges a realty transfer tax when a deed is recorded: 37 cents for each $100 of the price paid or the property’s value, whichever is greater. A taxable base of $100,000 means $370. By law, the buyer pays the tax, and the County Register of Deeds collects it for the State. Some transfers are exempt; the closing professional can confirm whether an exemption applies to a particular deed.
