Inherited a vacant property in Raleigh with back taxes piling up? See how one Memphis family sold their mother's house in days and solved two tax problems with one cash sale.
A woman reached out to us after her mother passed. The house in Raleigh — not far from Hickory Hill — had been vacant for almost a year. Back taxes had stacked up on two properties at the same time. Shelby County was moving toward a tax sale.
She didn't have months. She had days.
Spencer walked the property, made a cash offer, and they were at the closing table within a week.
At closing, the delinquent taxes were paid directly from the sale proceeds — she didn't front a dollar. She walked out with cash and used part of it to get current on her second property too.
Two tax problems. One cash sale. Both solved.
That's what selling a Memphis property without an agent actually looks like when it goes right:
Q: Can I sell a house with back taxes in Memphis?
A: Yes. When you sell to a cash buyer, the delinquent taxes are paid directly from the sale proceeds at closing. You don't need cash upfront.
Q: How fast can I close on an inherited property?
A: In many cases, we can close in as little as 7 days. No repairs, no showings, no waiting.
Q: What if I have multiple properties with tax issues?
A: We can help with that too. In this case, one cash sale helped the seller get current on a second property as well.
Q: Do I need to make repairs before selling?
A: No. We buy homes as-is. You don't need to fix anything or clean out the property.
If you have a vacant property, inherited home, or back taxes piling up, we can help you close fast and walk away clean.
