If your situation isn't on that list, it is almost certainly covered on the main Cash Offer page, which walks through 33 of them.
Why County Matters More Than People Think
Almost every deadline that pushes someone toward a cash sale is set at the county level. Foreclosure is filed in the Madison County Court of Common Pleas and moves at the pace of that docket. Probate runs through the Madison County Probate Court. Delinquent property taxes are certified and collected by the Madison County Treasurer, and the tax-foreclosure track runs through the county prosecutor. The county auditor handles the transfer step before any deed gets recorded.
So when someone tells you a generic Ohio timeline, treat it as an average rather than your answer. What matters is what is happening on your county's calendar — and, in London specifically, how backed up the docket is right now.
How It Works
- Send the address and a sentence about the condition, whether anyone is living there, and your timeline.
- We match it to an investor who actually buys in Madison County and in your situation, and you get a written offer — usually within 24 hours.
- You pick the closing date. At a title company, with liens and payoffs handled from the proceeds.
Frequently Asked Questions
How fast can I sell a house in Madison County?
Seven to fourteen days is realistic once title is clean. The written offer normally comes within 24 hours. Delays are almost always title defects, an open probate, an occupant, or a lien discovered during the title search — not the buyer.
Where does a Madison County foreclosure case get filed?
In the Madison County Court of Common Pleas. Ohio is a judicial foreclosure state, so the lender must file suit and win before a sheriff's sale can happen, and you keep the right to pay the loan off until the court confirms that sale. How long the case takes depends heavily on the county docket. Full detail is on our Ohio foreclosure guide.
Who handles probate for a Madison County property?
The Madison County Probate Court. If the estate is being administered, the executor generally needs a certificate of transfer before title can pass cleanly. A cash buyer will wait for the court; a financed buyer usually will not. See our inherited property guide.
Can I sell if I owe back taxes to Madison County?
Yes. Delinquent taxes are a lien against the property and the title company pays them from your proceeds at closing, exactly like a mortgage payoff. You do not have to bring them current first.
Do you buy in the small villages, not just the bigger towns?
Yes. Smaller Madison County communities are often where a cash offer helps most, because thin comparable sales and older housing stock make financed sales slow and unpredictable.
