From first conversation to settlement

The sale, step by step

  1. 1. Talk through the property

    We ask about the address, condition, occupancy, access, ownership, and the timing you are considering. Start with what you know; you can begin the conversation before every property question is settled.

  2. 2. Review the house and read the offer

    We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us. We give written cash offers in 24 hours. Written offer and written terms before you commit; title-company closing. Read the price, responsibilities, possession, timing, costs, and property-specific conditions before you decide whether to proceed.

  3. 3. Work through title, payoffs, and liens

    If you choose to proceed, the title company checks the deed and who can sign, then reviews mortgage payoffs, liens, and taxes that affect settlement. A payoff is the amount needed to satisfy a mortgage or other obligation; a lien is a recorded claim for money. Bring the statements or notices you have, and we can discuss questions while details are still being gathered.

  4. 4. Review the settlement sheet and close

    A settlement sheet shows how the sale money breaks down. We always review the settlement sheet with the seller and walk through how the money breaks down so there is no confusion. We try to do that the day before closing so settlement is smooth; the title company confirms the final numbers. Written offer and written terms before you commit; title-company closing. You're going to get a fair price and not have to do anything. Just show up at settlement.

Two ways to sell to us

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.

Cash Offer

  • USA Home Buyers buys directly.
  • 30 days or less.
  • Lower price.
  • No repairs, no commissions, no closing costs.

EZ Sale

  • Goes to one of our partners.
  • 60 days or less.
  • Higher price than the Cash Offer.
  • Still no repairs, no commissions, no closing costs.

Compare the written terms and what you might keep after costs with the Bay City home-sale net-proceeds calculator.

Bay City and Bay County closing figures

Review the settlement numbers

The settlement sheet lays out the sale price and how payoffs, liens, taxes, and other costs affect the amount scheduled for you. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Mortgage payoffs, liens, back taxes, and the seller's share of current property taxes are separate from that closing-cost promise.

When things get difficult

We stay with the process

It's real estate. Sometimes there are bumps in the road. We won't disappear when that happens, and we'll be fighting to get this to the closing table.

Bay City process questions

Can I start before every property question is settled?

Yes. Call or use the form with the Bay City address and what you know about condition, occupancy, access, and timing. You can start the conversation while estate, payoff, lien, tax, or title details are still being gathered.

Do I need to repair, clean, or empty the house first?

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

What happens after the first conversation?

We give written cash offers in 24 hours. Written offer and written terms before you commit; title-company closing. Read the price, responsibilities, possession, timing, costs, and property-specific conditions before you decide.

How will I review the closing figures?

A settlement sheet shows how the sale money breaks down. We always review the settlement sheet with the seller and walk through how the money breaks down so there is no confusion. We try to do that the day before closing so settlement is smooth; the title company confirms the final numbers.
