Local records and offices
A property valuation, unpaid-tax balance, recorded deed, and court judgment are different records. The Auditor handles valuation and parcel questions; the Treasurer is the contact for property-tax accounts; the Recorder handles recorded deeds and land documents. For a court judgment, follow the court and case details on the order or docket rather than treating it as a deed search. These county offices serve Knox County; bring the property address, parcel number, notice, or case information when you contact one.

Ohio charges a conveyance fee when a house sells. State law requires $1 per $1,000 of the sale price, and a county may add up to $3 per $1,000 under Ohio Revised Code sections 319.54 and 322.02. By law, the seller pays this fee. Ask the title or closing office to show the amount that applies to your sale in the settlement figures.
When you sell to us, we pay it.
Read Ohio Revised Code section 319.54 and section 322.02 for the state and county fee provisions.

Here's what sellers have said about working with us.
“Howard worked at Home Savings Bank for twenty-eight years. When he retired, we talked about downsizing for two years before we actually did it. The property tax on our Canfield Road house was $3,800 a year, and with both of us on fixed incomes that added up. USA Home Buyers closed in seven days. We're in a smaller place in Boardman with half the maintenance.”
“I got behind on payments after losing my warehouse job. The lender filed in Mahoning County Common Pleas Court and I didn't know what to do. USA Home Buyers explained the Ohio judicial foreclosure timeline, made a written offer the next morning, and we closed before the case moved to summary judgment. I walked away with money instead of losing everything.”
“The house on Michigan Avenue had been in Clara's family since 1951. When the waterline under the street broke, water backed up through the foundation and we had standing water in the basement for four days. Mold, foundation damage, HVAC destroyed. We're both past seventy and we couldn't put $40,000 into a house we'd been thinking about leaving anyway. Closed in ten days.”

Start with the Knox County Auditor for property valuation, assessment, and parcel-record questions. An assessed value is not a current tax payoff or a court judgment.
Use the Knox County Treasurer for a property-tax account or notice question. Have the property address or parcel information and the current bill or notice available so you can confirm the balance for that property.
Use the Knox County Recorder for recorded deeds and land documents. A court judgment is a court-case record, not a deed; use the court and case contact shown on the judgment or docket. Those are different records from an Auditor valuation or Treasurer tax balance.
The Knox County Probate/Juvenile Court site is the local starting point for probate and estate-court information. Check the actual case documents and get advice about your specific authority-to-sign question from your attorney or closing professional.
