2. The sale, step by step
From the property conversation to settlement
Step 1: Start with what you know about the house
Share the Warsaw address, condition, who lives there, access, repairs, and the timing you are considering. You can start the conversation before every property question is settled, including an estate, payoff, lien, tax, or title detail.
Step 2: Talk through the property as it is
We ask practical questions about condition, repairs, occupancy, access, and timing. We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us.
Step 3: Read the written offer and terms
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 deciding whether to proceed.
Step 4: Work through title, authority, and payoffs
If you choose to proceed, the title company reviews the deed, who can sign, mortgage payoffs, recorded liens, taxes, and the papers needed for settlement. A payoff is the amount needed to satisfy a mortgage or other obligation; a lien is a recorded claim for money against the property. Bring any statements, notices, or estate papers you have so the questions for this sale can be checked.
Step 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.
3. Two ways to sell
Compare the 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.

4. Useful Warsaw and Kosciusko County details
Estate papers and recorded claims can affect the closing steps
If the house is part of an estate, the paperwork can affect who signs. A mortgage payoff is the amount needed to satisfy a loan; a lien is a recorded claim for money against the property. You can start the conversation while those details are still being checked. If you proceed, the title company reviews the deed, signing authority, payoffs, recorded liens, and taxes that apply to this sale.
The Kosciusko County Recorder is a starting point for recorded land documents. The title company checks which records and documents matter for the property being sold.
5. Closing numbers
Review the settlement sheet and Indiana filing
The settlement sheet shows the sale price, mortgage payoffs, liens, taxes, other entries, and the amount scheduled for disbursement. Ask about any line you do not recognize. 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.
Indiana uses a property-transfer filing so the county auditor can update property-tax records. The filing fee is usually $20, and some transfers are exempt. Recording and other closing charges are separate; the closing professional handles the paperwork. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Your mortgage balance, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes remain separate.
You're going to get a fair price and not have to do anything. Just show up at settlement.
