Common Questions About Selling Tenant-Occupied Properties
Can you buy my property if I’m in the middle of an eviction?
Yes, we purchase properties even with pending eviction proceedings and can take over the legal process after closing.
What happens to the security deposits when you buy my rental?
We typically handle security deposits through closing adjustments, allowing you to transfer tenant deposits to us as the new owner.
Do I need to inform my tenants about the sale?
Ohio law requires certain notifications to tenants. We can guide you through this process or coordinate proper communications as part of our service.
Will you honor existing leases?
We can either honor existing leases or negotiate new terms with tenants, depending on your preference and our purchase agreement.
What if my tenants refuse property access for your assessment?
We’re experienced in working with difficult tenant situations and can often find solutions for evaluation access. In extreme cases, we may be able to make offers with limited inspection.
Can you purchase multi-unit properties?
Yes, we buy everything from single-family rentals to small apartment buildings throughout the Cleveland area.
Success Story
“The experience with them was fantastic. I live out of state and had a tenant that lived in the property. There were a few issues with the tenant leaving some things behind but they worked with me and we came up with a resolution. I received payment from them incredibly fast after everything was signed and submitted! I would do business with them again if I was ever in the position to sell another home quickly.”
