From first conversation to settlement

The sale, step by step

  1. Start with the house and what you know

    Tell us the address, condition, who occupies the house, access, ownership, and timing you are considering. Mention any payoff, lien, tax account, estate paperwork, tenant, code notice, or deadline that is already part of the situation. You can start before every question is settled.

  2. Talk through the property and the choices

    We ask practical questions about repairs, access, occupancy, and timing, then review the house as it stands. We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us. We can explain the direct-sale choices and how they compare with listing, repairing, or waiting.

  3. Read the written offer and terms

    We'll give you a written cash offer within 24 hours. Written offer and written terms before you commit; title-company closing. Read the price, responsibilities, possession, timing, costs, and any property-specific conditions before deciding whether to proceed.

  4. Let the title company check title and payoffs

    The title company checks the deed, who can sign, mortgage payoffs, liens, taxes, and documents needed for settlement. Estate authority, access, occupancy, and move timing can also affect planning. Keep the actual statements, notices, and estate papers available for review.

  5. Review the settlement figures and close

    A settlement sheet lays out 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. If you proceed, closing is through a title company. 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

Compare Cash Offer and EZ Sale

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 numbers and choose what works for you. Use the Carson City home-sale net-proceeds calculator to compare what you might keep after editable costs.

A local closing detail

Nevada real property transfer tax in Carson City

Nevada charges real property transfer tax when a deed is recorded. The total Carson City rate is $1.95 for each $500 of value, or any part of $500. To estimate the tax, round the sale value up to the next $500 and multiply by the rate. Carson City is its own county-equivalent, so this is the Carson City rate rather than a neighboring county rate.

State law makes the buyer and seller each responsible for the whole tax. The contract can say who pays, but the county can still collect from either one. The Carson City Recorder collects the tax before recording the deed, along with a declaration of value.

Before the signatures

Review the settlement figures

The settlement sheet lays out the sale money and how it is allocated. We review it with you and walk through the lines so you can see how the figures break 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.

When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs.

Your mortgage, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate. The title company explains the figures that apply to the property.

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.

Questions and next steps

For a question about a particular property, bring the actual deed, payoff statement, notice, or estate papers to the title company or appropriate professional. Call 888-274-5006 to talk through the house, even if some details are still open.
