How lien and back-tax payoffs work

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

A mortgage, lien balance, back taxes, and your share of current property taxes are separate from closing costs. The creditor or tax office confirms the current amount and payoff or release instructions; the title company checks how those figures apply to the sale.

Records that help—and who checks them

If you have them, bring the latest property-tax notice, mortgage or lien statement, parcel information, creditor or court case number, and any trustee-tax-sale or foreclosure notice. The property address is enough to start; call even if the paperwork is incomplete.

The title company checks ownership and recorded property claims. The lender, lienholder, or tax office named on the paperwork confirms its current balance and payoff or release instructions. The title company uses those confirmed figures in the sale documents.

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. 1. Talk through the property

    Tell us the San Angelo address, what is happening with the house, and which notice or payoff has you concerned. Start with what you know; you do not have to solve the balance before calling.

  2. 2. Review the house and written terms

    We review the house as-is and give you the offer and proposed terms in writing before you commit. Read the price, responsibilities, payoff treatment, and closing terms before deciding.

  3. 3. Confirm title and payoffs

    The title company checks ownership and recorded claims for the transaction. The creditor or tax office supplies current payoff or release information; the title company uses those instructions to prepare the settlement figures.

  4. 4. Review the settlement and close

    Review the sale price, confirmed payoffs, taxes, and other settlement amounts through the title company. If you decide to proceed, closing takes place through the title company under the written terms you accepted.

Tom Green County records, tax sales, and Texas transfer tax

For a San Angelo property, start with the Tom Green County office that handles the record or notice in front of you. Use the property address and current paperwork for a parcel-specific question.

Recorded liens and real-estate documents

Trustee tax-sale notices

The County Clerk describes Trustee Tax Properties as properties struck off to the County after not selling at a Trustee Tax Auction, and posts trustee-sale notices. Check the current notice and records for a specific property. A tax-sale notice is separate from a lender's mortgage foreclosure; if your notice concerns a lender, see the separate foreclosure information.

No Texas real-estate transfer tax

Texas has no state, county, or city real-estate transfer tax. The deed still has to be signed before a notary and recorded with the County Clerk. Recording charges are based on page count and document details, not the sale price; ask the County Clerk about current recording requirements and fees.

When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate.

What sellers say about USA Home Buyers

San Angelo liens and back-tax questions

Can I sell my San Angelo house with liens or back taxes before paying them?

Yes. When you sell to us, we can set it up so you don't have to prepay anything — it comes out at closing. USA Home Buyers buys houses as-is in San Angelo and Tom Green County, including houses with liens or back taxes. The current payoff and title details are checked as the sale moves forward.

Who checks the current lien, mortgage, or property-tax amount?

The lienholder, mortgage servicer, or tax office confirms its current balance and payoff or release instructions. The title company checks recorded property claims and uses the confirmed information for the closing work.

What should I have ready before I call?

Start with the property address and any tax notice, lien or mortgage statement, parcel number, case or account number, and tax-sale or foreclosure notice you already have. You can call before you have every document.

Are a Tom Green County tax sale and a mortgage foreclosure the same process?

No. The County Clerk posts trustee-tax-sale information for tax-related properties. A lender mortgage foreclosure is a separate process; use the notice and the office named on it to check the current status and dates.

What if the payoff is more than my San Angelo house is worth?

Think the payoff is more than the house is worth? Ask us — we've gotten lenders to come down before.

Does Texas charge a real-estate transfer tax when I sell?

No. Texas has no state, county, or city real-estate transfer tax. A deed still has to be notarized and recorded with the county clerk, and recording fees are separate from a transfer tax.

What happens after I contact USA Home Buyers?

We talk through the property and the records you have, review the house as-is, and put the offer and terms in writing before you decide. The title company and the relevant creditor or tax office confirm the property-specific records and payoff details for closing.
