Chester home seller questions
Where are foreclosure cases for Chester homes filed?
Foreclosures on Chester properties are filed in the Middlesex Judicial District Superior Court (Civil), 1 Court St, Middletown, CT 06457. Connecticut foreclosures go through the court, so there’s usually time to sell before the law day or auction if you act early.
Which probate court handles an inherited Chester house?
Estates for Chester residents go through the Saybrook Probate Court, 302 Main St, 2nd Floor, Old Saybrook, CT 06475. We can buy an inherited house once the executor or administrator has authority to sell, and we can work with your probate attorney on timing.
How much are property taxes on a Chester house?
At 27.78 mills, a house worth $300,000 is assessed at $210,000 and pays about $5,834 a year in town tax. Unpaid taxes accrue 18% a year interest and can lead to a tax lien sale or foreclosure, which is one reason owners sell for cash.
Do you charge fees or commissions?
No. We make a cash offer, and if you accept, we typically pay normal closing costs. There’s no commission because we’re buying the house ourselves, not listing it.
