How a Cash Sale Closes in Michigan
Michigan is a title-company state. A title company clears the title, pays off your mortgage and liens, and records the deed with the county register of deeds.
Michigan charges two transfer taxes, and the seller usually pays both:
- State tax: $3.75 per $500 of the sale price.
- County tax: typically $0.55 per $500.
On a $100,000 sale that is $860 in total.
Foreclosure and Probate Rules in Michigan
Foreclosure. Most Michigan foreclosures are non-judicial, called foreclosure by advertisement. The lender publishes the sale notice once a week for four weeks in a county newspaper and posts it on the house, and then a sheriff’s sale is held. After the sale you usually have six months to redeem, or one year if you owed less than two-thirds of the original loan. See our sell house in foreclosure guide.
Probate. In most Michigan estates, a personal representative can sell the house without asking the probate court. We buy from personal representatives with those powers and from trustees. If the letters of authority limit that power, or an heir objects and the court has to confirm the sale, we are not the right buyer.
