Portsmouth, Ohio / Foreclosure
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.
Yes. You can still sell your house before a sheriff's sale. Ohio mortgage foreclosures go through court. Under Ohio Revised Code §2329.33, you can generally stop the sale before the judge confirms it, even after the auction, by depositing the full judgment amount, costs, and applicable interest with the court clerk. Selling before the sheriff's sale may help protect any equity you have.

No fees. No agent commissions when you sell to us. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Your mortgage payoff, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate from those costs; we'll go through those amounts with you.
A mortgage foreclosure is a court case about mortgage debt. Ohio Revised Code §2329.33 generally lets you stop the sale before the judge confirms it, even after the auction, by depositing the full judgment amount, costs, and applicable interest with the court clerk.
A property-tax case concerns delinquent real-estate taxes, not mortgage debt. It follows a separate court process with its own notices and deadlines. Ohio Revised Code Chapter 5721 covers Ohio tax foreclosures. If you have both notices, we can go through them with you.
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.
Think the payoff is more than the house is worth? Ask us — we've gotten lenders to come down before.
We'll work with you on the lender payoff and any other liens, then review how those amounts fit with the written sale terms.
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.
