How liens and back taxes are paid at closing

When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Your liens are paid off from the sale at closing.

Your mortgage, tax, or other payoff affects what remains from the sale.

Records and the next step

Start with the Raymore property address and any property-tax bill, creditor letter, mortgage statement, payoff notice, or court paper you already have. You can call before you have everything.

The lender or creditor confirms its current payoff. The Cass County Collector handles County property-tax billing. We work with the title company on recorded claims and closing figures as the sale moves forward.

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.

What happens next

  1. Tell us about the Raymore property and the notice or payoff information you have.
  2. You get a written offer and written terms before you commit, and we close through a title company.
  3. If you want to move forward, we work with the title company, lender, creditor, or Cass County Collector to review title and payoff details.
  4. Close as fast as 7 days when title and closing details allow.

Missouri transfer taxes and recording fees

Missouri’s Constitution bars the state and local governments from imposing new taxes on the sale or transfer of real estate after December 2, 2010. County recorders charge $5 for the first page of a deed and $3 for each additional page, plus per-document fees set by state law. The title company or closing professional confirms the exact recording charges.

When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. No agent commissions when you sell to us. No fees.

Missouri Constitution, Article X, Section 25 → RSMo §59.310 — recorder fee per page → RSMo §59.319 — recorder user fee → RSMo §59.800 — additional recording fee →
