😰 Behind on Property Taxes in Greensboro or Winston-Salem?
If you’ve fallen behind on property taxes, you’re not alone. In cities like Greensboro, High Point, and Winston-Salem, we talk to homeowners every week dealing with back taxes and mounting fees.
The county doesn’t always make it easy. If you owe back taxes on your home, you may be facing:
-
⚠️ Tax liens placed against your property
-
⌛ A deadline to pay or face foreclosure
-
📈 Accruing interest and penalties
-
🚫 Trouble selling your home the traditional way
🧾 What Are Back Taxes?
“Back taxes” simply means you haven’t paid property taxes for one or more years. In North Carolina, your county tax office can take action, including:
-
Filing a lien on your home
-
Charging interest and late penalties
-
Beginning a foreclosure process if taxes go unpaid for too long
Unfortunately, these issues don’t go away on their own — and they can block a sale if not handled correctly.
🏚️ Can You Sell a House With Back Taxes?
Yes! But how you sell it matters.
Option 1: Sell With a Realtor
If you list with a Realtor in the Triad area, the taxes will usually be:
-
Paid out of your proceeds at closing, and
-
Negotiated with the buyer (but this may reduce your offer)
The problem?
If you owe a lot in taxes, you may not walk away with much—or anything.
And if there’s a lien on the house, many buyers (and their lenders) won’t touch it. 🧱
✅ Option 2: Sell As-Is for Cash (Even With Tax Liens)
At Graceful Home Solutions, we’ve worked with homeowners in the Triad who were months—even years—behind on property taxes.
We can still buy your house as-is, in cash, and help handle:
-
💼 Lien payoffs
-
💸 Closing cost negotiation
-
⏳ Fast closing before foreclosure starts
You get a clean break and a fresh start — without needing to pay the tax bill out-of-pocket first. 💰
