How closing works here

InTym Properties closes through a licensed title company and handles the title work; Iowa closings customarily involve an attorney issuing a title opinion or a title guaranty certificate through the Iowa Title Guaranty program. Iowa charges a real estate transfer tax of $1.60 per $1,000 of sale price after the first $500, declared to the Polk County recorder at recording. In a normal Ankeny sale the seller also pays recording fees and prorated property taxes. Your written offer shows exactly which of those we cover before you sign.

§08

What do sellers ask in Ankeny?

How fast can you actually close on an Ankeny house?

As soon as 7 days if title is clear, longer if you need it. The title work sets the legal minimum; you set the rest.

My house has hail damage or a wet basement. Will you still buy it?

Yes, exactly as it sits. Hail-damaged roofs and basement moisture on Ankeny's subdivision stock are routine here. Each appears as a line item.

The property is in probate. Can I get an offer before it clears?

Yes. InTym Properties can make a written offer now and close when the Polk County district court clears the estate. Iowa probate runs through the district court, and the executor or administrator can usually sign once letters are issued; your attorney sets the real timeline.

I'm behind on payments and in foreclosure. Is it too late?

Iowa foreclosure is judicial: the lender sues in district court and the sheriff conducts the sale after judgment. You can sell any time before the auction, and the proceeds pay off the lender and stop the case.

What do I pay at closing? What is Iowa's transfer tax?

Every cost is itemized before you sign. Iowa's real estate transfer tax is $1.60 per $1,000 of sale price after the first $500. The usual seller costs also include recording fees and prorated Polk County property taxes, and your offer shows what InTym Properties covers.

What if I change my mind?

Every agreement includes a cancellation window in plain words before you sign. InTym Properties would rather lose a deal than trap a seller.

How do I know this is real?

Ask for proof of funds, search InTym Properties on the Iowa Secretary of State business registry, and take the offer to any attorney. We are the buyer.
