Money and choices

Compare what you keep, not just the sale price

What you keep depends on the sale price and the amounts tied to the house, including a mortgage payoff, liens, back taxes, and your share of current property taxes. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. That is separate from those balances and property-tax amounts.

Use the calculator to compare possible net proceeds with assumptions you can change for your 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.

Useful questions about selling in West Union

Do I need to repair or clean out my West Union house before selling to you?

No. We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us.

Can I sell my Ohio house if a foreclosure or sheriff’s sale is coming up?

Yes. Ohio mortgage foreclosures go through court. You can generally still stop the sale before the judge confirms it—even after the auction—by depositing the full judgment amount, costs and applicable interest with the court clerk (Ohio Rev. Code §2329.33). 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.

What is Ohio’s conveyance fee, and who pays it?

Ohio charges a conveyance fee when a house sells. The Ohio conveyance fee includes a state-required $1 per $1,000 of the price and up to $3 per $1,000 a county can add. When you sell to us, we pay it.

Can I talk with you about an inherited house before probate is finished?

Yes. You can call while probate is open. If the will gives the executor power to sell, the appointed executor can sign without a court order. If it does not, Ohio has other routes with specific requirements; the will, appointment, and estate facts determine who may sign.

Can I sell a West Union rental with a tenant still living there?

Yes. We can discuss a tenant-occupied house. The lease typically stays with the house, and when we buy it we become the landlord, so the tenant does not have to move out before closing. If you want to sell it empty, Ohio requires written notice at least 30 days before the next rent due date to end a month-to-month lease, or 7 days for a week-to-week lease.

Can I sell a house with open code violations?

Usually, yes. When you sell to us, we buy the house as it is and the repairs become our job, not yours. If the city has already taken you to court over the violations, selling does not automatically end that case.

Can I see the offer and terms before I decide?

Yes. We provide the written offer and terms before you commit. If you choose to sell, the closing is through a title company.

Do mortgage balances, liens, or back taxes disappear when I sell?

No. A sale does not erase a mortgage payoff, recorded lien, back taxes, or your share of current property taxes. Those amounts are separate from closing costs and are included in the property-specific closing figures.

Start with a question

You can call before you have everything figured out

Start with the property address and what you know about its condition, occupancy, and timing. A deed, estate paper, lease, tax notice, payoff, lien notice, or court paper can help answer a later question, but you do not need to gather everything before calling.
