Which Colusa County communities do we buy in?
We buy in Colusa, Williams, Arbuckle, Princeton, Grimes and the farm and ranch properties around them. Colusa County is largely agricultural, and many homes sit on rural lots with wells, septic systems or outbuildings, which can complicate a bank-financed sale. A cash purchase avoids that.
How to sell a house in Colusa County
You can list the home with an agent or sell it directly for cash. With a small buyer pool, a listing may take longer than in the larger valley cities, and lenders can balk at older rural houses. A cash buyer takes the property as it is and closes on your timetable, in exchange for an offer below a full retail price.

- Get a written offer within 24 hours, free and with no obligation.
- Choose your closing date. Escrow pays the mortgage, taxes and liens from the proceeds.
- Close. The deed records with the county, and escrow releases your funds.
What paperwork does a deed need in Colusa County?
The county requires a Preliminary Change of Ownership Report with the deed. It is free when complete and submitted with the transfer document; without it an additional $20 fee may apply. Forms are available from the Assessor’s office at 547 Market Street, Suite 101. Escrow normally prepares and records these documents, so you rarely handle them yourself.
What does it cost to sell a house in Colusa County?
The county’s documentary transfer tax is $0.55 for each $500 of value, excluding any lien that remains on the property at the time of sale. The contract sets who pays. A traditional listing adds commissions and repair costs; our cash offers carry neither. The calculator below shows the county tax on your price.
