Frequently asked questions

Do you handle avoid foreclosure sales in Iowa?

Yes. We close avoid foreclosure cash sales throughout Iowa, working with title companies in Des Moines, Cedar Rapids, Davenport and statewide. Each state has its own paperwork requirements; our team handles Iowa-specific documentation as part of the closing process.

How fast can you close in Iowa?

For avoid foreclosure situations in Iowa, typical closing is 7-30 days to close. Some states move faster than others depending on title company schedules and any third-party requirements (mortgage payoff, probate court, etc.). Most Iowa closings are scheduled at the seller’s convenience.

What about Iowa-specific costs or taxes?

Iowa has its own transfer taxes, recording fees, and title company customs. We pay the standard closing costs typically assigned to the seller, including transfer taxes where applicable. Property tax prorations are handled at the closing table based on the closing date.

Can you close fast enough to stop my foreclosure?

Often, yes. We can close in as little as 7 days from the time we agree on price. If your trustee sale or auction date is more than 14 days away, we typically have time. Even if it’s closer, we may be able to work with your lender to delay the sale once a buyer (us) is under contract. The earlier you reach out, the more options we have.

Will selling for cash hurt my credit?

A sale is reported very differently than a foreclosure. Foreclosures stay on credit reports for 7 years and can drop scores by 100-160 points. A sale that pays off the loan in full has no such impact — the lender simply marks the loan as paid. If you also owed back payments before sale, those will still show as late, but the foreclosure itself is avoided.
