The housing stock in Howard

Howard is a fast-growing village north-west of Green Bay, and most of its housing is newer subdivision construction on larger lots than you find in the city. There are older pockets near the original village centre and along Duck Creek, but the bulk of the stock is post-1980 and in reasonable repair.

Why Howard sellers call us

Very little of what we buy in Howard is about condition. It is about timing — a relocation, a divorce, an estate, or a house bought before the last one sold.

How it works

Three steps in Howard

1. Tell us about the house

The address and a rough idea of condition. We do not need photographs or paperwork to start.

2. We come and look at it

We walk the property in Howard ourselves, then send a written cash offer within 24 hours with the math shown.

3. You pick the closing date

Seven days or three months, at a Wisconsin title company, with our On-Time Guarantee behind the date.

Howard sellers ask us

Would I not do better listing a newer Howard house?
Very possibly, and we will say so. A well-kept house in a growing village will usually net more on the open market. Our value here is certainty: a firm number, a firm date, and no financing or inspection contingency that can unwind it.
We have already bought our next house. Can you match our timing?
Yes. Carrying two mortgages is one of the most common reasons Howard sellers call, and closing in as little as seven days once the offer goes firm is generally possible.
I own a Green Bay duplex with tenants in one or both units. Can you still buy it?
Yes, and we buy them regularly. Leases transfer with the property, so we take the tenants along with the house and handle the relationship from closing forward. You do not need to give anyone notice or empty a unit first. Do tell us if a tenant has stopped paying — it does not sink the deal, we just need to know.
The city has an open order on my property. Does that kill the sale?
No. We buy with the order attached and deal with the city ourselves afterward. Open orders are one of the most common reasons a Green Bay property will not close with a financed buyer, and one of the least interesting reasons to us.
Do you buy outside the city, in Howard, Suamico or De Pere?
Yes, across the whole county. The housing out there is generally newer, so the reason for selling is usually a timeline — an estate, a relocation, a divorce — rather than the condition of the house.
How fast can you actually close?
As little as seven days once your offer goes firm, because we are not waiting on a lender, an appraisal, or an underwriter. If you need longer, that is genuinely fine — plenty of our sellers pick a date six or eight weeks out so they can line up their next place. You choose the date, and our On-Time Guarantee puts $5,000 in escrow behind it.
What happens after I send my address?
One of us calls you, usually the same day. We ask a few questions about the property and the situation, arrange a time to come and look at it, and then send the written offer. Nobody will pressure you, and nobody will pass your details to a list of other buyers.
Do you actually come and look at the house?
Yes, every time. We do not send sight-unseen numbers by text and then renegotiate once somebody finally visits — that practice is common in Wisconsin right now and it is why so many sellers have stopped trusting cash offers. If an offer arrives from anyone without a person ever seeing the property, treat it with real caution.

Local resources

Useful Brown County offices and services

Selling in Howard means dealing with two levels of government: Howard handles your assessment, permits and any code enforcement, while Brown County records the deed and collects delinquent taxes. These are the offices and services that actually matter when you sell.

Brown County Register of Deeds

Green Bay, Wisconsin

Where the deed to your property is recorded, and where the title company will search the chain of title and anything recorded against it.

Brown County Treasurer

Green Bay, Wisconsin

Handles delinquent property taxes once they pass out of the local municipality. If you are behind, this office can tell you the exact payoff and where your parcel sits in the county process — call them before you decide anything.

Brown County Circuit Court

Green Bay, Wisconsin

Wisconsin foreclosure is judicial, so any action against your property is filed here rather than advertised in a newspaper. Probate for an estate is administered here too.

Brown County Land Records / GIS

Green Bay, Wisconsin

Parcel maps, assessments and ownership records. Useful for confirming lot lines, acreage, and what the county thinks your property actually is.

Brown County land information

Parcel and assessment records for the city, De Pere and the surrounding villages in one place.

Free statewide help

None of these are us, and none of them cost anything. If you are in trouble with a mortgage, talk to a counsellor before you talk to any buyer, including us.

  • Wisconsin Department of Revenue — Property tax guidance, the real estate transfer fee, and the lottery and gaming credit. Useful for understanding what you will actually pay at closing.
  • WHEDA — Wisconsin's housing finance authority. Worth a look if keeping the house is still on the table rather than selling it.
  • Legal Action of Wisconsin — Free civil legal help in much of southern Wisconsin, including housing matters.
  • Wisconsin Judicare — Free civil legal help serving northern Wisconsin. Check which of the two covers your county.

We list these because they are genuinely useful, not because we are affiliated with them. Contact details change — search for the office by name rather than relying on a number printed on a website.
