When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Your liens are paid off from the sale at closing.
A mortgage balance, lien or back-tax payoff, and your share of current property taxes are separate settlement items, not part of our closing-cost promise. The creditor or tax office confirms its current amount and payoff or release instructions; the title company checks the recorded claims and uses confirmed information in the closing work.
Start with the Minneapolis property address. A parcel number, current property-tax notice, lender payoff statement, lien or court paper, deed, mortgage, or case number can help identify which balance or record needs checking. Bring what you have; you can call before you have everything.
Hennepin County's Property Information Search includes parcel tax information and recent recorded-document access. The County Recorder — Registrar of Titles handles land-title records. The creditor or tax office confirms its payoff; the title company checks the records and settlement requirements for the specific sale.
Think the payoff is more than the house is worth? Ask us — we've gotten lenders to come down before.
Tell us the Minneapolis address, what you know about the house, and which notice or payoff is causing concern. Start with what you know; you do not have to solve the balance before calling.
We review the house as it stands and put the proposed offer and sale terms in writing before you decide. Written offer and written terms before you commit; title-company closing.
If you choose to proceed, the title company checks ownership and recorded claims for the transaction. The creditor or tax office provides current payoff or release information, and the closing professionals confirm the figures and documents needed for settlement.
The title company prepares the settlement figures using the written terms, confirmed payoffs, and applicable closing items. Review the figures with the closing company before signing.
Use the office that handles the record or notice in question. Office locations are routing references; confirm current hours, appointments, and access with the office before visiting.

A property-tax matter, a lender's mortgage-foreclosure file, and tax recorded with a deed are separate issues. Check the notice, parcel account, and property records that match the question.
A Minnesota property-tax delinquency or tax-forfeiture notice concerns the tax account; a mortgage foreclosure is a separate lender process with its own notices and sale file. For a tax question, check the current Hennepin County parcel account and notice. For a lender foreclosure, check the lender's current notice and the Sheriff or court file named in it. One process does not establish the status or date of the other.

For an ordinary taxable transfer with net consideration over $3,000, Minnesota deed tax is 0.33% of taxable net consideration. Hennepin County adds a 0.01% Environmental Response Fund tax, making the combined rate 0.34%. Exemptions and transfers with little or no consideration can change the amount; the closing professional confirms the property's county and taxable amount.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including Minnesota deed tax and applicable Hennepin or Ramsey County Environmental Response Fund tax. This does not pay your mortgage, liens, back taxes, or share of current property taxes.
