Questions About Selling a House in Warren, MI

There is no set amount or percentage. What you keep depends on the written price and the costs and payoffs attached to that property. Compare what remains after costs, not just the headline sale price, using your own assumptions in the Warren home-sale net proceeds calculator.

We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us. Tell us what condition the house is in and what timing you are working with; you do not have to repair or clean it first to sell to us.

We give written cash offers in 24 hours. You can share the Warren address and the details you know about condition, occupancy, and timing.

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. The Cash Offer is direct: USA Home Buyers buys directly, in 30 days or less, at a lower price. EZ Sale goes to one of our partners, in 60 days or less, at a higher price than the Cash Offer. Both have no repairs, no commissions, and no closing costs. Compare the written numbers and the responsibilities for your house before you choose.

Written offer and written terms before you commit; title-company closing. Read the written price, responsibilities, and timing before you decide whether to go ahead.

For an ordinary taxable sale, Michigan state real estate transfer tax is $3.75 for each $500 of value, or part of $500. The county real estate transfer tax is generally another 55 cents for each $500, or part of $500. At that county rate, a $100,000 sale has $750 in state tax and $110 in county tax, $860 total before any applicable exemption. State and county exemptions are separate, so the property's county, sale value, and any exemption must be checked for the actual sale. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including Michigan state and county real estate transfer taxes. Mortgage payoffs, liens, back taxes, and your share of current property taxes are separate.

A sale may still be possible if the required payoff or redemption can be completed before the applicable deadline. In a Michigan foreclosure by advertisement, six months after the sheriff's sale is the most common redemption period, but shorter and longer periods apply. Redemption means paying the sale amount plus required interest and charges, not just the missed payments. 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. Have the title company or an attorney confirm the sale status, exact deadline, and amount needed before relying on a closing date.

Yes. Call before you have every paper gathered or every answer worked out. Start with the Warren property address, what you know about its condition, who lives there, and any timing concern. A deed, payoff statement, tax notice, or court paper can answer later questions, but you can start the conversation without having all of them.

Yes. The City of Warren is within Macomb County. A mailing address alone does not confirm a particular parcel’s municipal or county boundaries, so check the exact property location before relying on it for a record or deadline.
