Can I Sell My Menomonie House in Foreclosure?

How we help you work toward closing

We review the Menomonie house as it is, the current payoff, title questions, and the dates on your case papers. We give written cash offers in 24 hours. You see written offer 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.

A signed agreement does not itself change a court or sheriff date. Keep checking the date with the lender and the official contact listed in your case papers; rely on a postponement only after it is confirmed.

Mortgage foreclosure and tax sale are different

A mortgage foreclosure is the lender's court case over the mortgage debt. A delinquent property-tax matter follows separate notices and deadlines. Do not treat a tax deadline as a mortgage sheriff's-sale date, or assume a mortgage postponement changes a tax deadline.

For a mortgage case, use the lender, court, or sheriff named in your actual papers to confirm status and dates. For a property-tax account question, contact the Dunn County Treasurer and follow the instructions on the tax notice.

Wisconsin mortgage-foreclosure and redemption rules are in Wisconsin Statutes chapter 846, including §§846.10, 846.101, and 846.13. The supplied state legal card also cites Security State Bank v. Sechen, 2005 WI App 253, ¶¶8–11. Read those sources with the actual judgment and notices for the property.

What happens next

1. Call or send the property address and tell us what notice or sale date you have. You can contact us even if you are still sorting out the paperwork.
2. We review the house and the facts you share, then give you a written offer and written terms before you commit.
3. If you want to proceed, a title company reviews ownership and obtains the current payoff and other figures needed for closing. The actual court, lender, title, and notice deadlines still matter.
4. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate and are handled according to the actual payoff and closing figures.
5. The title company coordinates closing if the title, payoff, required approvals, and schedule allow the sale to close.

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.

Compare a possible sale with your estimated net using the Menomonie home-sale proceeds calculator. It is an estimate; your actual payoff, taxes, court status, and closing figures are property-specific.
