Very few. You mainly need a photo ID and proof you own the home, such as the deed or a recent tax bill. The title company runs a title search to confirm the title is clear.

We walk you through each step. Most Ecorse owners are surprised how little paperwork it takes to sell their house fast for cash.

It depends on the route. A traditional Ecorse listing can take a couple of months once you prep the home, host showings, and wait on a buyer's loan. On an older riverfront home, a low appraisal can undo the deal late. A cash sale is far quicker. We send a cash offer within 24 hours, and you can close in as little as seven days through a Wayne County title company. Need more time to move or finish probate? You choose a later date.

More than the price alone. A traditional sale usually means 5 to 6 percent in agent commissions, plus Michigan's transfer tax of $8.60 per $1,000, which the seller normally pays. Add owner's title insurance and closing fees. Even on an affordable Ecorse home, that reaches thousands of dollars. When you sell to us, there are no commissions, no repairs, and no fees, and we cover the standard closing costs. The cash offer in writing is the amount you walk away with.

Michigan asks for a few. The main one is the Seller's Disclosure Statement, which you give the buyer before a binding agreement under MCL 565.957. Because most Ecorse homes predate 1978, the federal lead-based paint disclosure usually applies as well. If a homeowners association covers the home, its documents come into play too. You will also need a photo ID and proof of ownership, such as the deed or a tax bill. A cash, as-is sale to us keeps the rest light, and we walk you through every step near West Jefferson or the West End.

Maybe not. If the Ecorse home was your main home for two of the last five years, the federal capital gains exclusion may apply. It shields up to $250,000 in profit for a single filer and up to $500,000 for a married couple. Most sales in this affordable Wayne County river town land far below those limits, so many owners owe nothing. If your gain runs higher, Michigan's 4.25 percent income tax may apply to the part above the exclusion. Everyone's taxes differ, so check with a tax professional before you sell.
