Mortgage foreclosure
An Indiana mortgage foreclosure goes through court and may lead to a sheriff's sale.
North Vernon, IN › Foreclosure
Can I still sell my North Vernon house before a sheriff's sale?
If a sheriff's sale is scheduled, tell us the date right away so we can try to close before it. In Indiana, mortgage foreclosures go through court. You may still be able to sell before the sheriff's sale if the sale can close and resolve the debt in time. Before the sale, you may also redeem by paying the full judgment, interest, and costs through the clerk or sheriff, depending on the case stage; paying only overdue installments isn't enough. Call us and we'll review the notice date and payoff with you. See Indiana Code §32-29-7-7 and the Indiana Court of Appeals decision Wells Fargo Bank v. Tippecanoe Associates.

How we help with a foreclosure sale
We look at the house, the sheriff's-sale notice, and the payoff with you. If a sheriff's sale is scheduled, tell us the date right away so we can try to close before it. You get a written offer and written terms before you commit, and we close through a title company.
Mortgage foreclosure or property-tax sale?
Property-tax sale
A county property-tax sale is separate from a mortgage foreclosure and has its own notice and deadline. For Jennings County tax-sale information, see the Jennings County Treasurer.
If the payoff is the problem
Think the payoff is more than the house is worth? Ask us — we've gotten lenders to come down before.
What happens next
1. Contact us about the house and date
Call or use the form. We'll review the house, the date on your notice, and payoff information with you.
2. Review the written offer and terms
You get a written offer and written terms before you commit, and we close through a title company.
3. Check title and payoff details
The title company works through title, lender payoff information, and closing details. You don't need to pay off back taxes before we settle. We buy houses with back taxes and liens — payoffs get handled through the closing, not by you upfront.
No fees. No agent commissions when you sell to us. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Mortgage balances, liens, back taxes, and your share of current property taxes are separate from those costs.
4. Work toward closing
Close as fast as 7 days when title and closing details allow.
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.
