Sell your with back taxes owed Richmond 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.

How the Virginia timeline works

Virginia is a non-judicial deed-of-trust state with a fast timeline — published notice can be as short as two weeks before the trustee sale. If a sale is advertised, the window to act is short.

Virginia closings are handled by settlement agents — either a title company or an attorney. Two-to-three-week cash closings are normal.
