Can I Sell My New Castle House With Back Taxes or Liens?
When you sell to us, we can set it up so you don't have to prepay anything — it comes out at closing.

Prefer to call? 888-274-5006.
How liens and tax payoffs work
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Your liens are paid off from the sale at closing.
The creditor or tax office confirms the current amount for its account, and the title company checks recorded claims and works through payoff instructions for the sale. Closing costs are separate from mortgage balances, liens, back taxes, and your share of current property taxes.
Which records help?
You can call with just the property address. If you have a tax bill, lien notice, or lender statement, we can talk through it with you.
If the payoff is more than the house is worth
Think the payoff is more than the house is worth? Ask us — we've gotten lenders to come down before.

New Castle property liens and back taxes questions
Can I sell my New Castle house with back taxes or liens?
Yes. We buy houses with back taxes and liens in New Castle and Henry County. When you sell to us, we can set it up so you don't have to prepay anything — it comes out at closing. Start with the property address and whatever tax notice, lien record, or payoff information you have; you can call before you have every document.
Who checks the lien and tax balances?
The title company checks ownership and recorded claims for the sale. The creditor or county office confirms the current payoff or tax-account amount.
Is a Henry County tax sale the same as mortgage foreclosure?
No. A tax sale concerns delinquent property taxes. Mortgage foreclosure is a separate lender and court process.
Which Henry County office should I contact?
The Treasurer handles tax statements, payments, and tax-sale notices. The Assessor handles assessments and appeals; the Auditor handles property-tax deductions and tax records; the Recorder handles recorded documents; and the Clerk can help with court-document requests.
What records should I have ready when I call?
The property address is enough to start. If you have a tax bill, lien notice, or lender statement, it can help us understand the situation, but you can call before you have every document or payoff amount.
What if the payoff is more than my house is worth?
Think the payoff is more than the house is worth? Ask us — we've gotten lenders to come down before.
What happens after I contact you?
We talk through the property and what you know, then review the house as it stands. We give written cash offers in 24 hours. You get a written offer and written terms before you commit, and we close through a title company. If you choose to proceed, the title company works with the creditor or tax office on payoff details for closing.
