Money and choices
Compare what you keep, not just the sale price
Your sale price is not the amount you keep. Mortgage payoff, liens, back taxes, and your share of current property taxes affect what remains. Use the calculator to compare possible numbers for your house.
Cash Offer or EZ Sale: compare the written numbers
We have two ways to buy. A Cash Offer is built for speed, condition, and tough situations — heavy repairs, tight timelines, difficult circumstances. EZ Sale is often the better fit when the house doesn't need major repairs and you want a higher number. Either way, you compare written numbers and you pick what works best for you.

What will I keep after the sale?
Your sale price is not the amount you keep. What remains depends on the written sale price and property-specific payoff and tax amounts. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. No agent commissions when you sell to us. Your mortgage payoff, liens, back taxes, and your share of current property taxes are separate.

How does Wisconsin’s real estate transfer fee work?
On a sale that is not exempt, Wisconsin charges the seller 30 cents for every $100 of the sale price, or part of $100. It is collected when the deed is recorded. Some transfers are exempt, and recording and other closing charges are separate. When you sell to us, we pay the Wisconsin real estate transfer fee. Mortgage payoffs, liens, back taxes, and your share of current property taxes are separate.

Can I sell while a Wisconsin mortgage foreclosure is underway?
You may still have time if the sale can close and resolve the debt. Wisconsin mortgage foreclosure goes through court. The right to redeem can 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. That makes timing important; selling first may help protect any equity you have. 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.

Can I call before I have all the paperwork?
Yes. Call with what you know; you do not need every paper to ask a question. Before closing, we review title, payoff, occupancy, and seller authority so we can confirm who can sign and what needs attention.
