What we do with a tenant-occupied Akron house
We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us. We buy in Akron and Summit County, including houses with tenants in place.
You don't always need to evict to sell to us. We buy houses with tenants in place — we've done it many times, including cash-for-keys when that works better for everyone.
A sale does not by itself cancel the lease. The lease typically stays with the house, and we become the landlord after closing. If you would rather discuss a sale with the tenant still there, you can start that conversation now.

The lease and possession
Selling the house does not by itself cancel the lease. The lease typically stays with the house, and the tenant does not have to move out before closing just because the property sold. We become the landlord after closing.
Notice if you want to end the lease
Ohio Rev. Code § 5321.17 says ending a month-to-month lease takes written notice at least 30 days before the next rent due date; for a week-to-week lease, the notice period is 7 days. Read Ohio Rev. Code § 5321.17.
Security deposits
Security deposits typically transfer to us at closing. We discuss the lease and deposit as part of the handoff.
