Liens and back taxes attach to a property, and they usually must be resolved before a buyer can get clear title.

In many cases they are paid from the sale proceeds at closing. Tell us what is owed and we will factor it into a straightforward offer.

How your offer works.

Some liens, such as certain tax liens, follow special rules. The title company will confirm what must be paid and how.

If the liens add up to more than the property is worth, a sale may need lienholder approval. We will be upfront about the numbers.
