Money and choices
Compare what you keep, not just the sale price
Net proceeds are what remains after the costs attached to a sale. A mortgage payoff, repairs, commissions, concessions, cleanout, carrying costs, taxes, or other property obligations can change the comparison. Compare the written numbers and costs that apply to your Wapakoneta house.

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.

Wapakoneta seller questions, answered
How much of the sale price will I keep?
There is no one take-home number for every house. Compare the written price with the costs and balances tied to your sale, such as a mortgage payoff, taxes, liens, repairs, commissions, cleanout, and the time you carry the house. Those amounts depend on the property and the sale path.
Can I sell my Wapakoneta house as-is?
Yes. 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 house, who lives there, and your timing.
What is the difference between a Cash Offer and EZ Sale?
A Cash Offer is a direct purchase by USA Home Buyers: 30 days or less, at a lower price. EZ Sale goes to one of our partners: 60 days or less, at a higher price than the Cash Offer. Both have no repairs, no commissions, and no closing costs. A Cash Offer is built for speed, condition, and tough situations; EZ Sale is often a better fit when the house doesn't need major repairs and you want a higher number. Compare the written numbers and choose what works for you.
How soon can I get a written cash offer, and what do I see before deciding?
We give written cash offers in 24 hours. Written offer and written terms before you commit; title-company closing.
What is Ohio’s conveyance fee, and who pays it?
Ohio charges a conveyance fee when a house sells, and by law the seller pays it. The state fee is $1 per $1,000 of the sale price, and a county may add up to $3 per $1,000 (Ohio Rev. Code §§ 319.54 and 322.02). The amount for an Auglaize County property depends on the local rate; confirm it with the County Auditor or title company. When you sell to us, we pay it.
Can I call before I have every document gathered?
Yes. Start with the property address and what you know about its condition, occupancy, and timing. A deed, lease, estate paper, payoff statement, tax notice, lien notice, or court paper may help answer a specific follow-up, but you can call before you have everything together.
Can I ask about an inherited house before every estate paper is ready?
Yes. You can start with what you know about the house. Before a sale closes, the person signing and that person’s authority for the property need to be clear; keep any deed, will, probate appointment, or court order you have available for the title company or your estate professional to review.
Can I discuss selling while a tenant still lives in the house?
Yes. Share what you know about the lease, access, occupancy, and any notices or possession plans. A sale conversation does not end a lease or set a move-out date; the actual lease and situation matter.
What if a foreclosure notice or Sheriff-sale date is involved?
You can ask about the house while you check the notice. Confirm the current payoff and any sale date or deadline with the lender, court, Sheriff, or other office named in your paperwork. Asking a buyer for an offer does not change an official deadline.
What if the house has a code notice or serious repair issue?
You can ask us to review the house as-is. Share the notice and any dates or requirements it lists so they can be part of the property discussion; a sale conversation does not replace requirements from the issuing office.
Can I ask about selling a house during a divorce?
Yes. You can start with the property address and the ownership or court papers you have. The deed and any current court orders matter to who can sign and how the sale proceeds are handled, so have the title company or your attorney review those details before relying on a sale plan.
