How we can work toward a closing
You do not need to fix anything before asking about a sale. We give you a written offer and written terms before you commit. If you choose to sell, we review title, payoff, occupancy, and seller authority with the closing team, then close through a title company.
Signing alone doesn’t automatically postpone the sheriff’s sale. For a mortgage foreclosure, we use the agreement of sale to ask for a postponement while we work toward closing.
Mortgage foreclosure or property-tax sale?
A Wisconsin mortgage foreclosure is a court case. A property-tax sale or tax-foreclosure notice is separate from the lender’s case and follows its own deadline; the mortgage sheriff-sale date and redemption period do not set the tax deadline.
You don't need to pay off your back taxes before we settle. We buy houses with back taxes and liens — payoffs get handled through the closing, not by you upfront.
A mortgage balance, other liens, back taxes, and your share of current property taxes are separate amounts.
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.
We review the payoff alongside the property and other title items as we work toward a sale.
What happens next
- Call us or send the property address through the form, and tell us where things stand.
- We review the house as-is and give you a written cash offer and written terms before you commit.
- If you choose to sell, we review title, payoff, occupancy, and seller authority with the closing team and close through a title company.
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.

Osceola Foreclosure Questions
Can I sell my Osceola house before a sheriff's sale?
You may still be able to sell before the sheriff's auction if a sale can close and resolve the debt. Our agreement of sale will often get a sheriff's sale postponed so we can close. It doesn't always work, but it works more often than people think. Signing alone doesn't automatically postpone the sheriff's sale; we use the agreement to ask for a postponement.
What if the sheriff auction has already happened?
Wisconsin’s right to redeem can continue after the sheriff’s auction until the court confirms the sale. Redeeming requires full payment of the foreclosure judgment, interest, costs, and applicable later taxes — not just overdue installments.
Is a property-tax sale the same as mortgage foreclosure?
No. A property-tax sale or tax-foreclosure notice is separate from a lender’s mortgage-foreclosure case and follows its own deadline. The mortgage sheriff-sale date and redemption period do not set the tax deadline.
What if the payoff is more than my Osceola 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 USA Home Buyers?
Tell us the property address and where things stand. We review the house as-is and give you a written cash offer and written terms before you commit. If you choose to sell, we review title, payoff, occupancy, and seller authority with the closing team and close through a title company.
