From first contact to settlement
The sale, step by step
1. Tell us about the house
Give us the address and what you know about condition, occupancy, access, ownership, and timing. If an estate, payoff, lien, tax account, or notice is part of the situation, mention it. You do not need every answer before the first conversation.
2. Talk through the property
We ask about the house as it sits, repairs, occupancy, access, and the timing you are considering. We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us.
3. Read the written offer and terms
We give written cash offers in 24 hours. You get a written offer and written terms before you commit, and we close through a title company. Read the price, responsibilities, possession, timing, costs, and property-specific conditions before you decide whether to proceed.
4. Let the title company check title and payoffs
The title company reviews the deed, ownership, who can sign, mortgage payoffs, liens, taxes, and the documents needed for settlement. Bring any statements, notices, or estate papers you have; you can start the conversation before those details are all settled.
5. Review the settlement sheet and close
The 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.
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.

Madisonville and Hopkins County details
Confirm which local office handles the address
Madisonville and Hopkins County are separate jurisdictions. The Hopkins County Joint Planning Commission lists both as members, along with other nearby cities. Madisonville's Zoning and Engineering page describes its development process as applying inside City limits. A mailing address alone does not establish which office handles a property question, so confirm the actual address with the relevant City or County office.
For local development and permit questions inside Madisonville City limits, see City of Madisonville Zoning and Engineering. For help identifying the planning jurisdiction, contact the Hopkins County Joint Planning Commission.
The Hopkins County Clerk's legal records and official documents can help locate recorded documents. The title company checks the deed, payoffs, and property-specific items needed for your sale.
Closing numbers
Read the settlement figures and Kentucky transfer tax
The settlement sheet can show the sale price, mortgage payoff, liens, back taxes, your share of current property taxes, closing charges, and the amount scheduled for you. These are separate figures, so review each line before signing.
Kentucky's real estate transfer tax is 50 cents for each $500 of value, or fraction of $500. The seller, as grantor, owes it under state law, and the county clerk collects it before the deed can be recorded. Some transfers are exempt, including certain foreclosure, spouse-to-spouse, and government transfers; ask the title company whether an exemption applies to your sale. Recording fees are separate.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs.
Your mortgage, liens, back taxes, or your share of current property taxes are separate from the closing costs we pay. Those amounts remain separate settlement figures.
Kentucky Revised Statutes § 142.050 — real estate transfer tax →
When the process gets 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.

Madisonville process questions
Madisonville process questions
Can I start the conversation before every property question is settled?
Yes. Start with the Madisonville address and what you know about the condition, who lives there, access, and timing. We can talk through the open questions as they come up. Call 888-274-5006 or use the form above.
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 before I decide whether to sell?
We give written cash offers in 24 hours. You get a written offer and written terms before you commit, and we close through a title company. Read the price, responsibilities, possession, timing, costs, and property-specific terms before you decide whether to proceed.
Who checks the deed, payoffs, and liens?
The title company checks ownership and who can sign, mortgage payoff amounts, liens, taxes, and the documents needed for settlement. Share any statements, notices, or estate papers you have so the title questions can be reviewed for this sale.
Does a Madisonville mailing address confirm the property is inside city limits?
No. Madisonville and Hopkins County are separate jurisdictions, and other Hopkins County cities have their own local offices. Confirm the actual address with the relevant City or County office; do not rely on the mailing label alone.
What should I know about Kentucky real estate transfer tax?
The Closing numbers section below explains the rate, who the law assigns it to, exemptions, separate recording fees, and what closing costs we pay. The title company can confirm whether an exemption applies to your sale.
