Sell your with back taxes owed Columbia house for cash — we buy direct
Owing back property taxes doesn't stop you from selling — but it does compress the timeline before the county can move to tax sale. A cash sale pays off the taxes directly from the proceeds at closing, often before any auction would happen. We buy tax-delinquent property routinely and can close on these.
Lockwood Home Buyers makes cash offers directly to homeowners — no fees, no commissions, and no obligation to accept. We are not a real-estate agent or broker; we buy houses for cash.
How the South Carolina timeline works
South Carolina is a judicial-foreclosure state — the lender files suit and the case runs through the court to a judicial sale, which typically takes many months. More runway than trustee-sale states, but costs accrue throughout.
South Carolina requires an attorney to conduct the closing. A cash sale still closes on a normal two-to-three-week timeline.
