Can I Sell My Oshkosh House Before Foreclosure?
Our agreement of sale will often get a sheriff's sale postponed so we can close. Signing alone doesn't postpone it automatically; we use the agreement to ask for the postponement, and it works more often than people think.
You may still have time to sell if the sale can close and resolve the debt. In Wisconsin, the right to redeem may continue after the sheriff's auction until the court confirms the sale, but it requires full payment of the foreclosure judgment, interest, costs, and applicable later taxes—not just overdue installments. Selling before confirmation may help protect any equity. We can review the judgment, payoff, and case timing with you.

Mortgage foreclosure and tax foreclosure are different
Mortgage foreclosure
Wisconsin mortgage foreclosure is a court case under chapter 846. Its sale and court deadlines are different from a tax-lien foreclosure.
Wisconsin Statutes, chapter 846 (mortgage foreclosure)Foreclosure of a tax lien
Wisconsin handles tax-lien foreclosure separately under chapter 75. A request to postpone a mortgage sheriff's sale does not change a tax-foreclosure deadline.
Wisconsin Statutes, chapter 75 (tax-lien foreclosure)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 can review the lender payoff and title with you. You can call before you have every record.

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.
No fees. No agent commissions when you sell to us. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. When you sell to us, we pay the Wisconsin real estate transfer fee.
Your mortgage payoff, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate. We review those property-specific amounts as part of the closing work.
Winnebago County sale information
Winnebago County posts Sheriff's Sales information, and Wisconsin Circuit Court Access provides court case information. For a county tax-foreclosure matter, see the County's separate tax-foreclosed-property information. We can review the sale information and notice with you.
