2. The sale, step by step
From the first conversation to settlement
Talk through the property
We ask about the house, its condition, occupancy, access, ownership, and your timing. We talk through what matters to you and the choices for the sale before you decide how to proceed.
Read the written offer and terms
We put the offer and sale terms in writing before you decide. Review the price, responsibilities, possession, and timing, and ask questions before choosing whether to proceed.
Work through title and payoffs
If you choose to sell, we work with a title company to review the deed, ownership and signing authority, mortgage payoffs, liens, and tax details for the closing. The title company confirms what the settlement needs.
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. If you decide to proceed, the title company handles the closing documents and confirms the final numbers. You're going to get a fair price and not have to do anything. Just show up at settlement.
Cash Offer or EZ Sale: compare the written numbers
3. Two ways to sell
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.

4. Useful local details
Estate authority and Jackson County records
If the house is part of an estate, Mississippi rules affect who can sign. An executor may sell estate real property before the estate closes when the will grants authority or Chancery Court orders the sale; being an heir alone does not authorize a family member to sign for the estate. The will, appointment, court order, and title determine who may convey. We work with the title company to check the signing authority. If you need an estate attorney, we can help you find one. Jackson County's Chancery Clerk keeps public land records used to locate recorded deeds.
5. Closing numbers
Review the settlement figures and deed charges
The settlement sheet lays out the price, mortgage payoff, liens, taxes, costs, and money scheduled for disbursement. Mississippi has no state real-estate transfer tax; deeds are subject to recording fees under the county Chancery Clerk's fee schedule.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate.
6. When things get difficult
We keep working through the bumps
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.
