Tell us about the house

From the first conversation to settlement

The sale, step by step

  1. 1. Tell us what you know

    Start with the Kenosha County property address, its condition, who lives there, access, and the timing you are considering. Tell us about an estate, payoff, lien, notice, or move question if it applies. You do not need every answer before the first conversation.

  2. 2. Talk through the property and your choices

    We ask about the house as it sits, repairs, occupancy, access, ownership, and timing. We give written cash offers in 24 hours. You can compare a direct sale with the other options that make sense for you.

  3. 3. Read the written terms; check title and payoffs

    Written offer and written terms before you commit; title-company closing. The title company checks who owns the house, who can sign, the mortgage payoff, liens, taxes, and documents needed for closing. A payoff is the amount needed to satisfy a debt; a lien is a recorded claim for money tied to the property.

  4. 4. Review the settlement sheet and close

    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, you sign the closing papers through the title company and receive the sale proceeds through its instructions.

You're going to get a fair price and not have to do anything. Just show up at settlement.

Two ways to sell

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.

Read the terms for the option you are considering, then compare the written numbers, timing, responsibilities, possession, and costs before you decide.

Wisconsin details that can affect closing

Estate paperwork and property records

Can an inherited Wisconsin house be sold before probate is finished?

Usually, yes. A personal representative with issued, unrevoked letters can generally sell estate property without a separate court order. The will still matters: restrictions on a sale must be followed, and a beneficiary specifically left the house generally must join in the sale. A valid transfer-on-death designation may pass the house outside probate. Bring the deed, will, appointment papers, and any court orders so the title company and the right professional can check who may sign before a closing date is set. If you need an estate attorney, we can help you find one.

Closing numbers

Review the settlement sheet and Wisconsin transfer fee

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.

For a sale that is not exempt, Wisconsin charges a real estate transfer fee of 30 cents for every $100 of the sale price, or part of $100. It is collected when the deed is recorded. Some transfers are exempt; the recording charge and other closing charges are separate from this fee. When you sell to us, we pay the Wisconsin real estate transfer fee.

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

Mortgage payoffs, liens, back taxes, and your share of current property taxes are separate settlement items; the closing-cost promise does not pay those balances.

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.

Kenosha sale-process questions

Can I start before every property question is settled?

Yes. Start with the address and what you know about condition, occupancy, access, and timing. Payoff, estate, lien, or move questions can be discussed as the details become available.

How do the Cash Offer and EZ Sale choices differ?

USA Home Buyers buys directly through Cash Offer, which is 30 days or less and a lower price. EZ Sale goes to one of our partners, is 60 days or less, and is a higher price than the Cash Offer. Both have no repairs, commissions, or closing costs. Compare the written numbers and terms; you choose what works best for you.

What happens before I commit?

Written offer and written terms before you commit; title-company closing. You can read the terms, ask questions, and decide whether to proceed. No obligation.

Who confirms the final settlement numbers?

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.
