Seller Questions
What Connecticut owners ask CT MAX most, answered plainly.
See Your MAX Offer
Start with the address. A CT MAX buyer calls you back, and your written number follows the walk-through.
What makes it a MAX Offer?
It’s the highest cash price we can pay once the house’s repairs and today’s nearby sales are counted. You see each of those numbers on the written offer, so nothing about the price is a mystery.
Can I sell to CT MAX with a mortgage still on the house?
Yes. The closing attorney requests a payoff from your lender and pays it out of the sale. The difference comes to you.
How soon could the sale be finished?
When title is clean, about a week is realistic. Estates, liens, and short sales take longer, and you can always choose a later date.
Does anything need fixing or emptying first?
Nothing. Keep what matters to you; furniture, appliances, and boxes can stay behind for us.
Is CT MAX a brokerage?
No. CT MAX is the buyer. We use our own funds, so there’s no listing agreement and no commission.
Which towns do you cover?
Every one of Connecticut’s 169, handled from nine offices. Find your town.
Will CT MAX buy a house that still has tenants?
Yes. Leases and security deposits transfer to us at closing. More on landlord exits.
What happens to back taxes and liens?
They’re paid from the sale at closing, so you don’t need money up front to clear them.
The house is in an estate. Can we still sell?
Yes. The fiduciary signs, and if the Probate Court has to approve the sale we wait for it. Estate property sales.
Do you buy buildings with five or more units?
Yes, along with two-, three-, and four-families. Multi-family.
Who normally pays conveyance tax in Connecticut?
The seller, under Connecticut practice. We go over every closing cost before you sign, and CT MAX covers the standard ones.
Can I stay in the house for a while after closing?
Often, yes. Tell us how much time you need and we’ll put the arrangement in the contract.
What’s your Connecticut house worth to a cash buyer?
Find out in writing. Saying no costs nothing.
