For an ordinary taxable transfer with net consideration over $3,000, Minnesota deed tax is 0.33% of that amount. Hennepin and Ramsey counties each add a 0.01% Environmental Response Fund tax; those county add-ons do not apply in Pine County. Exemptions and transfers with little or no consideration can change the tax, and the closing professional confirms the property county and taxable amount. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including Minnesota deed tax and applicable Hennepin or Ramsey County Environmental Response Fund tax. Your mortgage balance, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes remain separate.

A sale may still be possible if the required payoff or redemption can be completed before the applicable deadline. Minnesota mortgage foreclosure auctions are sheriff's sales. In a foreclosure by advertisement, the usual redemption period is six months after the sale, but shorter and longer periods apply in some cases. A court foreclosure can have a different starting point. Do not assume the sale date or redemption deadline has moved; have the title company or an attorney confirm the current deadline and amount needed. 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.
