Selling a Sanford house in a difficult situation
Foreclosure
Fire damage
You keep the insurance money and don't have to worry about the house anymore — we'll take care of it.
Liens and back taxes
When you sell to us, we can set it up so you don't have to prepay anything — it comes out at closing.
Tenants
You're done — no turnover, no repairs, no more bad tenants.
Code violations
The fines don’t stop while you think about it. They pile up, they add new ones, and every month takes another bite out of what the property is worth to you. We can buy it quickly, violations and all, so you stop the bleeding and keep your equity.
Divorce
You only have to agree on one thing — the price. After that we handle the rest, so there's nothing to argue about over repairs, contractors, showings, or who pays for what.
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.

Sanford selling costs: Florida documentary stamp tax
Florida's deed documentary stamp tax is 70¢ per $100 (or fraction) of consideration in most counties. Florida law makes all parties to the deed liable even when a contract allocates payment; exemptions may apply. Read the Florida Department of Revenue's documentary stamp tax guidance.
For example, $300,000 of taxable consideration means $2,100 in deed tax before any exemption. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including Florida documentary stamp tax and, where applicable, the Miami-Dade deed surtax. Your mortgage payoff, liens, back taxes and share of current property taxes are separate.

Sanford's historic districts
Sanford regulates four historic districts: Downtown Commercial, Sanford Residential, Sanford Avenue and Georgetown Residential. A Certificate of Appropriateness is required for some exterior work in designated areas and for specified work in Georgetown Residential. We buy houses as-is, so you do not have to finish repairs before selling to us. Not sure about your house? Call us — we'll sort it out with you.

Questions Sanford sellers ask
Can I sell a Sanford house as-is?
Yes. We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us. You get a written offer and written terms before you commit, and we close through a title company.
What Florida documentary stamp tax applies to a Sanford sale?
Florida documentary stamp tax on a deed is 70¢ per $100 (or fraction) of consideration in most counties. On $300,000 of taxable consideration, that is $2,100 in deed tax before any exemption. Florida law makes all parties to the deed liable even when a contract allocates payment.

Your mortgage payoff, liens, back taxes and share of current property taxes are separate.
Does Sanford historic-district status affect exterior work?

A Certificate of Appropriateness is required for some exterior work in designated areas and for specified work in Georgetown Residential. We buy houses as-is, so you do not have to finish repairs before selling to us. Not sure about your house? Call us — we'll sort it out with you.
Where can I check probate, deed or lien records in Seminole County?
The Seminole County Clerk has probate filing information and Official Records for deeds, mortgages, liens and probate documents. You can sell an inherited house in the estate's name once the estate is open — you do not have to put it in your own name first. If you need an estate attorney, we can help you find one.
What happens to insurance proceeds if I sell a fire-damaged house to you?
You keep your insurance proceeds when we buy the house exactly as it stands. If you still have a mortgage, your lender may have a say in how that check is used — we'll walk through it with you.
