§08

What do sellers ask in Columbia?

How fast can you actually close on a Columbia house?

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

My house is an older village home or has Columbia Association issues. Will you still buy it?

Yes, exactly as it sits. Aging village housing stock and Columbia Association assessment or covenant issues are routine here. Each appears as a line item.

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

Yes. InTym Properties can make a written offer now and close when the Register of Wills issues letters and the Orphans' Court clears any disputes. Your attorney sets the real timeline.

My house is in foreclosure. Is it too late to sell?

Maryland foreclosure is a court-supervised power of sale: the trustee files with the Circuit Court for Howard County, but the auction does not wait on a judge's order. You can sell any time before the sale; the proceeds pay off the lender and stop the process.

What do I pay at closing? What are Howard County's transfer taxes?

Every cost is itemized before you sign. Maryland charges a 0.5% state transfer tax, Howard County adds a 1.25% county transfer tax, and recordation runs $2.50 per $500 of consideration. 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 Maryland SDAT business registry, and take the offer to any attorney. We are the buyer.
