WE BUY HOUSES IN CORALVILLE • IOWA CITY • NORTH LIBERTY • JOHNSON COUNTY
How selling to us works
Iowa closings work a little differently: the title is checked with an abstract and an Iowa attorney's title opinion, often backed by an Iowa Title Guaranty certificate, instead of a title insurance policy.
-
Step 1
Tell us about the house
Use the short form or call. The address, the condition, and when you'd like to move are enough to start.
-
Step 2
Get a written cash offer
We check recent Johnson County sales and see the house once. The written offer spells out the price and who pays which closing costs.
-
Step 3
Close on your date
If you accept, you pick the date. Updating the abstract and getting the title opinion usually set how soon that can be.
Johnson County houses we buy as-is
Coralville grew quickly from the 1960s on, so split-levels, split-foyers, ranches and zero-lot-line homes from the 1960s to the 1990s are common. Iowa City's older neighborhoods add homes from the early 1900s.
Dated split-levels and ranches
Original kitchens and baths, an old furnace, a tired roof or a basement that needs work. Sell it the way it is.
Houses full of belongings
An estate, a downsizing move or years of collecting. Take what you want and leave the rest.
Rentals on the August lease cycle
Coralville and Iowa City require rental permits and inspections. Sell with the tenants in place instead. Leases stay with the house. Tenants' security deposits are transferred to us at closing, and we notify the tenants that we've taken them over.
Situations we can help with
Inherited a house
We can work with the estate's executor or administrator and the attorney, and wait for any court approval the sale needs before closing.
Moving to senior living or closer to family
Set a closing date around the move, and leave behind what you don't need.
Relocating for work
New job at the university, the hospital or out of state? Signing by mail with a notary is often possible.
Behind on mortgage payments
If the price covers what you owe, the loan is paid from the sale at closing. We can't stop a foreclosure and don't give legal or credit advice. A HUD-approved housing counselor can explain your options, often for free (call 800-569-4287 or search at hud.gov).
Cash sale or listing with an agent?
Listing is often the right choice for a move-in-ready Coralville house, and it can bring a higher price. Our offer will usually be below what a fully updated home would sell for. Here is what you get in exchange.
| Item | Cash sale to us | Listing with an agent |
|---|---|---|
| Repairs and cleaning | None. We buy as-is. | Often expected before photos and showings |
| Showings | One walk-through | As many as buyers request |
| Agent commission | None | Negotiated with your agent, often a percentage of the price |
| Buyer financing | The sale doesn't depend on a buyer's mortgage approval | Most buyers need a loan, which can delay or end a sale |
| Closing date | You choose, once title work is done | Set with the buyer and their lender |
| Sale price | Usually below full retail value | Can be higher, especially for updated homes |

Coralville and Johnson County seller questions
How does an Iowa closing work?
Iowa doesn't let insurance companies write title insurance on Iowa property. Instead, the abstract of title is updated and an Iowa attorney gives a title opinion, often with an Iowa Title Guaranty certificate. A closing agent or attorney prepares the deed and pays you, and the deed is recorded with the Johnson County Recorder.
Do I need to fill out Iowa's seller disclosure statement?
For most home sales, yes, even to an investor. Iowa's form now also asks about lead water service lines. Some transfers, such as certain court-ordered or estate sales, are exempt. Your attorney can confirm which applies to you.
My house is in the country and has a septic system. Is that a problem?
No, but Iowa requires a time-of-transfer inspection of a private septic system before the deed is transferred, by a state-certified inspector. We'll plan for it in the offer. Homes on city sewer don't need it.
How are property taxes handled?
Iowa property taxes are paid a year behind, in two halves due in September and March. At closing, they're usually prorated as the purchase agreement says, and any unpaid taxes are paid from the sale.
