We look, then we write a number
We look at the house with you before we write the number. The walkthrough is about 15 to 30 minutes with Ernest Dodson or Casey Davis. Do not clean. Do not repair. After that, you get a written cash offer within 24 hours. It shows homes like yours, the repairs we priced, and the amount we can pay. We are not saying what the house is worth.

Close on a day you pick
You pick the day. Some sellers close in 7 days. Some need 30 to 60 days to move. We close at a title company that records in Platte County. We cover the closing costs that come with our purchase. A mortgage, back taxes, or a lien is paid from the sale when the price covers it. You see the settlement statement before closing day.
If the price does not cover the taxes and any mortgage or other liens, we say so before you sign.
Your choices
Keep it, list it, or sell for cash.
A cash offer is what we can pay for the house as it is today. It is less than a retail price. Paying what you owe, or listing the house, can be the better path if you have the money and the time. We will say so.
Stay
Keep the house
This fits when you want to stay and you can cover what is due.
- Ask the county what is due today, including costs.
- Some counties offer a contract or a payment plan. We do not enroll you in one.
- Get the figure in writing before you decide the house is unaffordable.
A retail sale
List the house
A listing can bring more if you have time and the house can be shown.
- A buyer who needs a loan can fall out.
- Taxes and a mortgage are still usually paid at that closing.
- Repairs, showings, and a commission come out of a retail sale.

Local tax and title
How a Platte County tax sale works
Platte County property taxes are due December 31. Platte follows the Missouri certificate sale, and the current packet should be checked with the collector. This is not legal advice. Confirm the payoff and the date with the county.
Confirm the packet
Platte County follows the Missouri tax sale process under RSMo Chapter 140. Current sale packets and dates should be verified with the Collector. Do not borrow Clay County’s posted day and assume it is Platte’s day.
Certificate, then a redemption window
You usually keep title and have about a year after the certificate sale to redeem by paying the taxes, interest, and costs. If you still own the house, a sale can pay the county at closing when the price covers the balance.
Where to verify this
- RSMo Chapter 140 Missouri certificate-sale chapter used in Clay and Platte.
- Platte County Collector tax sale brochure Collector brochure. Confirm anything dated against the current packet.
