From first conversation to settlement
The sale, step by step
1. Tell us what you know about the house
Start with the Wichita address, condition, occupancy, access, and timing you are considering. Mention an estate, payoff, lien, tax balance, tenant, code notice, or deadline if it is part of the situation. You can begin the conversation before every property question is settled.
2. Talk through the house as it is
We ask practical questions about the house, repairs, access, who lives there, and timing. We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us. We give written cash offers in 24 hours.
3. Read the written offer and terms
Written offer and written terms before you commit; title-company closing. Read the price, responsibilities, possession, timing, costs, and any property-specific conditions before you decide whether to proceed, compare another path, or stop before signing.
4. Work through title, payoffs, and closing details
If you choose to proceed, the title company checks the deed, ownership, who needs to sign, mortgage payoffs, liens, taxes, and the documents needed for settlement. A payoff is the amount needed to satisfy a mortgage or other obligation; a lien is a claim for money tied to the property. Estate or court authority, a current notice, and a specific payoff may need review with the appropriate professional, lender, or court. Keep official notices and deadlines in view while the sale is discussed.
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.
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.

Wichita and Sedgwick County
Kansas has recording fees, not a deed tax
Kansas does not charge a real-estate transfer tax or deed tax. The state's mortgage registration tax ended on January 1, 2019. Recording a deed or mortgage costs $21 for the first page and $17 for each additional page, including the state's technology and heritage trust fund add-ons. The rates are statewide; the total depends on the number of pages recorded. The title company or closing professional confirms the exact charges for the documents in your sale.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Your mortgage balance, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate items; the title company or closing professional confirms the amounts and allocation for the specific sale.
For local recording information, the Sedgwick County Register of Deeds publishes its current fee schedule. The county schedule and Kansas statutes show the recording charges; the title company confirms which documents and amounts apply at closing.
Before the signatures
Look at the settlement figures together
Read the settlement sheet for the sale price, mortgage payoff, liens, taxes, costs, and the amount scheduled for you. 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.
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.
