Questions About Selling a House in Salina, KS

There is no one take-home number for every house. Compare the written cash price with what a listing could leave after repairs, cleaning, commissions, concessions, carrying costs, taxes, your mortgage payoff, liens, and other property obligations. The sale price alone does not tell you what will remain.

Kansas does not charge a real estate transfer tax or deed tax, and its mortgage registration tax ended on January 1, 2019. County recording fees set by state law are $21 for the first page of a deed or mortgage and $17 for each additional page. The rates are the same in every county, but the total depends on the number of pages; the title company or closing professional confirms the exact charge. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. That does not pay your mortgage balance, liens, back taxes, or share of current property taxes.

Sometimes. A sale may still be possible if the payoff or redemption amount can be paid in time. Kansas mortgage foreclosures go through district court. After the lender wins a judgment, the house is sold at a sheriff's sale, usually at the county courthouse, after notice is published once a week for three weeks. The court then confirms the sale. Afterward, the owner can generally redeem within 12 months, or three months if default occurred before one-third of the original senior debt was paid. Even then, the court gives 12 months if all outstanding mortgages and liens total less than one-third of the property's market value. The court may add three months if the owner involuntarily loses their main income after the sale and before the three-month period ends. Abandonment can shorten or end redemption. The owner can generally stay in the home meanwhile. 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.

You can call before everything is figured out. The property address, what you know about its condition, who lives there, and your timing are useful starting points. A deed, lease, estate paper, payoff statement, tax notice, lien notice, or court paper can help answer a follow-up, but you do not need to gather every document before asking a question.
