SELLING WITH BACK TAXES

Behind on property taxes? You can still sell.

Behind on property taxes in Denver, Adams, Jefferson or Boulder County? Sell your house as-is for cash. Back taxes are paid off at closing and you keep the rest.

Back taxes, interest or a recorded tax lien do not automatically mean you cannot sell. Contact your county treasurer to confirm what is owed and which deadlines apply. When the sale terms and title allow, eligible liens may be handled at closing.

A SALE ON YOUR TERMS

A clearer next step, at your pace.

01

How unpaid property taxes can affect a home

Unpaid property taxes may lead a county to sell a tax lien against a property, and interest or fees can accrue. The process and deadlines depend on the county and the property's tax history. Contact the county treasurer to confirm the current amount and timing.

02

Options to consider

  • Ask the county treasurer whether a payment arrangement is available.
  • Explore refinancing or borrowing only if the terms and your circumstances make sense.
  • Consider a sale. If the transaction and proceeds allow, delinquent taxes and liens can be addressed from closing proceeds.
03

How a cash sale may handle back taxes

A title company can identify recorded tax amounts and explain which payoffs can be handled at closing. The amount you receive depends on the agreed price, mortgage payoff, taxes and other liens. We buy homes as-is, pay closing costs and do not charge Realtor fees.

GOOD QUESTIONS

A few things you may be wondering.

Can I sell my house if there is a tax lien on it?

Possibly. The lien and payoff must be addressed as part of the sale, and the available options depend on title, the sale price and any other debt. Ask the county treasurer or title company for the current figures.

How much money would I receive after a sale?

It depends on the agreed price minus the mortgage payoff, taxes, other liens and transaction terms. Review the full numbers with the title company before signing.

How soon can a sale close?

Some cash purchases can close in about a week after title work is clear, but timing varies with records, payoffs and the details of the sale.
