What is different about selling a house in Sprague
Sprague is a small town made up of three old mill villages, Baltic, Hanover and Versailles, along the Shetucket River. Much of the housing is in and around the old mill villages, and the town runs its own water and sewer authority, so it is worth confirming whether a house is on town lines or a private well and septic.
- Revaluation schedule
- Anti-blight ordinance
- Town water and sewer authority
- Baltic mill site cleanup
Sprague's next revaluation is scheduled for October 1, 2027. Until then, assessments are based on the previous revaluation.
OPM revaluation schedule 2023-2037Sprague's Anti-Blight Ordinance (No. 2009-4) treats a building as blighted for conditions such as a dilapidated exterior or 25% or more peeling paint on a visible side. If the town abates a problem and the bill goes unpaid for six months, the cost becomes a lien on the property with 18% annual interest.
Town of Sprague OrdinancesSprague created its own Water and Sewer Authority by ordinance (No. 1967-1), and a separate ordinance regulates the use of public and private sewers. Ask the town Water and Sewer office whether a given house is on town lines or on a private well and septic.
Town of Sprague OrdinancesIn February 2017 the state awarded Sprague a $2 million grant to abate, demolish and clean up the 16-acre former mill site at 29 Bushnell Hollow Road in the center of Baltic village.
CT Senate Democrats press release, Feb 14, 2017What Sprague houses usually need
- Peeling paint and worn exteriors
- Oil heat
- Mill-era wiring and pipes
- Septic or well, or the town line
Sprague's Anti-Blight Ordinance counts 25% or more peeling paint on a visible side as blight. If your house is close to that, we buy it and handle the work.
About 85% of homes heat with oil. Old tanks and boilers are priced in, not a reason to say no.
Homes from before 1940 often have old wiring, pipes and lead paint. You fix nothing before we buy.
Some houses are on the town's water and sewer, others on a private well and septic. We buy either one.
When a quick sale helps in Sprague
The blight rules carry a cost if they are ignored. If the town abates a problem and the bill goes unpaid for six months, it becomes a lien on the property with 18% annual interest. An owner facing that can sell to us and let the closing pay it off.
Taxes are moderate. At 30.7 mills, a $307,000 house pays about $6,600 a year, around $550 a month. Landlords with mill-village two-families, or owners of inherited houses that need work, are the sellers we most often hear from. The next revaluation is October 1, 2027.
Behind on payments or taxes
Facing foreclosure or a tax lien in Sprague?
A Sprague bill near $6,600 a year that goes unpaid picks up 1.5% a month, 18% a year, and the town can lien the house. A blight abatement left unpaid for six months becomes a lien at the same 18%.
If the mortgage is late too, Connecticut mostly uses strict foreclosure, with a Law Day set by the Superior Court. A cash sale before that date pays off the lender, the taxes and any liens at closing.
