Questions About Selling a House in Sturgeon Bay, WI

We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us. Tell us what you know about the condition, access, who is living there, and your timing; you do not need to repair or clear the house before asking about a sale.

We give written cash offers in 24 hours. The written offer and terms cover the property and transaction details before you decide whether to proceed.

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.

Your net proceeds start with the sale price and subtract the mortgage payoff, liens, back taxes, your share of current property taxes, and other property-specific settlement amounts. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Those balances remain separate from closing costs; the Wisconsin real estate transfer fee is a separate named fee explained below.

On a sale that isn’t exempt, Wisconsin charges the seller 30 cents for every $100 of the sale price, or part of $100. That’s $300 on a $100,000 sale. It’s collected when the deed is recorded. Some transfers are exempt, and recording and other closing charges are separate. When you sell to us, we pay the Wisconsin real estate transfer fee. That named fee is separate from mortgage balances, liens, back taxes, your share of current property taxes, recording charges, and other closing charges.

You may still have time if the sale can close and resolve the debt. Wisconsin mortgage foreclosure goes through court. The right to redeem can continue after the sheriff’s auction until the court confirms the sale, but it requires full payment of the foreclosure judgment, interest, costs and applicable later taxes—not just overdue installments. Have the actual judgment, payoff and confirmation-hearing date checked promptly. Selling first may help protect any equity you have. 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.

No. Door County lists the City of Sturgeon Bay and the Town of Sturgeon Bay as different municipal governments, and its parcel maps are organized by municipality. Confirm the parcel’s actual municipality and use the matching city or town office; a Sturgeon Bay mailing address alone does not establish jurisdiction.

No. Start with the property address, what you know about its condition and occupancy, and your timing. A deed, payoff statement, tax notice, lien notice, or court paper can help answer the next question, but you can call before you have everything gathered. Written offer and written terms before you commit; title-company closing.
