When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Your liens are paid off from the sale at closing.
A lien is a claim that can affect a property's title or the money due at closing. A payoff is the current amount and instructions a lender, creditor, or tax office gives to satisfy an obligation. An older bill or recorded document may not show today's balance or release instructions.
The lender, creditor, or Montgomery County tax office confirms its current amount and payoff instructions. The title company checks ownership and recorded claims for the sale and uses the current information in the closing work. Maryland transfer taxes and our closing-cost promise are separate from your mortgage balance, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes.
The lender or creditor named on a notice, or the County tax office for a property-tax account, confirms the current amount and payoff instructions. The title company checks ownership and recorded claims. A recent tax bill or sale notice, mortgage or lien payoff statement, court paper, deed, and parcel or account number can help. Start with the property address; call before you have everything.
Think the payoff is more than the house is worth? Ask us — we've gotten lenders to come down before.
The first step is a conversation, not a complete file. If you want to continue, written terms, title review, payoff checks, and closing figures come before closing.
Tell us the address, what is going on, and what you know about the lien or tax notice. Start with what you have; you do not need to clear up every record before calling.
We discuss the house as it stands and give you the proposed offer and terms in writing before you decide. Written offer and written terms before you commit; title-company closing.
If you choose to proceed, the title company reviews ownership and recorded claims. The lender, creditor, or tax office confirms current payoff information and instructions for the transaction.
Review the sale price, confirmed payoffs, applicable charges, and amount remaining in the closing figures with the title company before closing.
This page uses the Census Silver Spring CDP as its market frame; its mapped land area is in Montgomery County. "Silver Spring" can also refer to other local geographies, so a mailing address alone does not establish a parcel's county or municipality. Check the actual property records before relying on a local office answer.
Use the real-property tax portal for the property-tax account. For account or payment questions, the Department of Finance lists 27 Courthouse Square, Suite 200, Rockville, MD 20850, and 240-777-8898.
The Public Information Room is in the North Tower, second floor, Room 2120. Use Land Records for land-document information and the County recording route. The County lists separate public-information and recording departments, so check which one handles your record question.
Montgomery County Finance publishes tax-sale information for delinquent property-tax matters. A mortgage foreclosure is a separate lender process. Check a tax account or tax-sale notice with the County Finance office; use the lender or court named on a mortgage notice for that case. One notice does not confirm the status of the other process.
Maryland's state transfer tax is generally 0.5% of the sale price. Each county sets its recordation tax, and many counties also charge a county transfer tax, so local amounts depend on the property's county and current rates. By law, the transfer and recordation taxes are presumed to be split equally between buyer and seller unless the contract says otherwise.
When the buyer is a first-time Maryland home buyer who will live in the home, the state rate drops to 0.25%; the seller pays that tax, plus recordation and local transfer taxes, unless the parties expressly agree otherwise. Some transfers are exempt. Ask the settlement company to confirm the current amounts and how the contract applies to your sale.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including Maryland's state transfer tax, recordation tax and any applicable county transfer tax.
This closing-cost promise does not pay your mortgage, liens, back taxes, or share of current property taxes; those remain separate settlement figures.
Use the Silver Spring home-sale net proceeds calculator with your own estimated value, mortgage payoff, lien or tax amount, repairs, and closing costs. Just an estimate — the actual number could be more or less depending on the home's condition.
Yes. When you sell to us, we can set it up so you don't have to prepay anything — it comes out at closing. We buy houses with back taxes and liens; the responsible lender, creditor, or County office confirms current amounts and instructions as the sale is discussed.
The lender, creditor, or tax office named on the notice confirms its current balance and payoff instructions. The title company checks ownership and recorded claims and uses the current figures in the closing work.
Montgomery County Department of Finance provides a real-property tax account portal and publishes County tax and tax-sale information. Use the property details and notice when asking about the account or sale status.
No. A County tax-sale matter concerns unpaid property taxes; a mortgage foreclosure is a separate lender process. Check a tax account or sale notice with Montgomery County Finance, and check a mortgage notice with the lender or court named on it. One notice does not establish the status of the other process.
Montgomery County Circuit Court Land Records handles land-document information and County recording. Recorded documents can help identify what is on record, but they are not a current payoff quote; ask the lender, creditor, or tax office for the amount and instructions to satisfy a debt.
Think the payoff is more than the house is worth? Ask us — we've gotten lenders to come down before.
Start with the property address. If you have them, keep the parcel or account number, recent tax bill or notice, lender or lien payoff statement, creditor name, deed or court paper, and any tax-sale or mortgage notice nearby. You can call before you have everything.
We talk through the property and the information you have, review the house as it stands, and provide written terms before you decide. If you choose to proceed, a title company checks ownership and recorded claims, the relevant lender, creditor, or County office confirms payoff details, and the closing figures are reviewed before settlement.
Maryland's state transfer tax is generally 0.5% of the sale price. Counties set their own recordation tax, and many charge a county transfer tax; the taxes are presumed to be split equally unless the contract says otherwise. A qualifying first-time Maryland home buyer who will live in the home gets a 0.25% state rate, with the seller paying that state tax plus recordation and local transfer taxes unless the parties expressly agree otherwise. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including Maryland's state transfer tax, recordation tax and any applicable county transfer tax. Mortgage balances, liens, back taxes, and your share of current property taxes remain separate.
