## Pierce County context

Selling anywhere in Pierce County runs through the same offices. Washington foreclosure is non-judicial: most residential loans sit on a deed of trust, the trustee records a notice of trustee's sale, and the auction follows the statutory notice period. Probate matters go through the Pierce County Superior Court. The Pierce County Assessor-Treasurer sets the taxable value behind every file, the Pierce County Auditor records every deed, and recorded tax liens and code enforcement follow the property, not the person. InTym Properties pulls the county records on every house before we write the offer.

The cost side is county-level too. Washington's real estate excise tax is graduated: 1.1 percent on the first $525,000 of selling price, stepping up to 3.0 percent above $3 million, plus a local tax of up to 0.5 percent. In a normal Pierce County sale the seller pays that excise tax, escrow and title fees, and prorated property taxes, each itemized in your written offer before you sign. The city page below carries its own median price, days on market, and trend so you can see where your block sits in the county.

The county records double as a legitimacy check for any company that offers to buy your house. The entity name on its contract should exist on the Washington Secretary of State corporations registry, deeds and liens it records appear in the Pierce County Auditor's official records, and a licensed Washington escrow and title company can confirm whether it actually closes files. The clause to look for in any offer is 'and/or assigns': it means the signer plans to sell your contract to someone else rather than buy your house.

### How does foreclosure work in Pierce County?

Washington foreclosure is mostly non-judicial under the deed of trust. The trustee records a notice of trustee's sale and the auction follows the statutory notice period. You can sell any time before the auction, and the proceeds pay off the lender and stop the sale.

### What does it cost to sell a house in Pierce County?

Washington's real estate excise tax is graduated: 1.1 percent on the first $525,000 of selling price, stepping up to 3.0 percent above $3 million, plus a local tax of up to 0.5 percent. The seller usually pays it, along with escrow and title fees and prorated property taxes. Your written offer shows every cost line by line, including which of those InTym Properties covers, before you sign.

### My property is in probate at the Pierce County Superior Court. Can I still get an offer?

Yes. InTym Properties makes a written offer now and closes when the court clears title. Washington nonintervention powers let the personal representative act without ongoing court supervision in most estates. Your attorney sets the real timeline.

### How fast can you close in Pierce County?

As soon as 7 days if title is clear, longer if you need it. A financed Tacoma-area sale runs months once you add days on market to the lender's timeline; the InTym Properties version is one walkthrough, one written offer, one date you pick.
