What we do
USA Home Buyers buys houses as-is in Bemidji and Beltrami County. We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us.
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.
Cash-for-keys means a voluntary move-out agreement that includes an agreed payment. It is one possible way to handle occupancy; any move-out and payment terms need to be agreed with the tenant and put in writing.
Bring us the problem
Lease timing, difficult access, a tenant who is not paying, or repairs that have piled up can all be part of the conversation. Tell us what is happening with the house and tenancy, even if you have not worked out a move-out plan.
Call 888-274-5006 and tell us what is going on.
What happens next
We discuss the lease, occupancy, access, condition, and timing with you. You can start with the facts you have; you do not need to resolve every tenancy question before calling.
1. Talk through the house and lease
Tell us who lives there, what the lease says, what access is possible, and what condition or repair issues you know about.
2. Read the written offer
We give written cash offers in 24 hours.
Written offer and written terms before you commit; title-company closing.
3. Close with the title company
The written terms and closing documents address the agreed occupancy and deposit handoff for the sale.
Local property-record help
For recorded real-estate information about a Bemidji or Beltrami County property, the county Recorder and Registrar of Titles is a local starting point. These offices handle property-record questions, not lease or tenant-rights decisions.
Minnesota lease, notice, possession, and security-deposit questions
A sale does not by itself cancel a lease
A tenant may remain in the house after a sale. Read the lease, occupancy details, and any written agreements as part of planning the handoff; a change in ownership is not, by itself, a move-out date.
Notice and possession are separate from selling
Selling the property is not the same as giving notice or getting possession. If you want the tenant to leave, the lease, notices already sent, and Minnesota notice and possession rules matter. The right steps and timing depend on the tenancy; do not treat the sale date as an automatic move-out deadline.
Account for the security deposit
Keep the lease, deposit record, current balance, and information about who holds the money together. The written sale and closing documents should say how the deposit will be handled. Do not assume the sale turns it into sale proceeds or makes the tenant's deposit rights disappear; confirm the steps for this tenancy with the closing professionals or a Minnesota attorney.

Bemidji tenant-occupied house questions
Can I sell my Bemidji house while tenants are still living there?
Yes. You can start a sale conversation while the tenants are still in the house. USA Home Buyers buys houses as-is in Bemidji and Beltrami County, and we can discuss the lease, occupancy, access, and timing with you.
Does selling the house cancel the tenant’s lease?
No. A sale does not by itself cancel a lease or make the house vacant. Review the lease and occupancy details when deciding what the written sale terms should say.
Do I need to evict or give notice before I call?
No. You can call to discuss the property with tenants in place. If your plan depends on ending the tenancy or delivering vacant possession, the lease and Minnesota notice and possession rules still apply to the facts of that tenancy.
What happens to the security deposit if I sell?
Keep the lease, deposit record, current balance, and information about who holds the money together. The written sale and closing documents should address how the deposit will be handled; do not assume a sale makes it part of your sale proceeds.
Can we discuss helping the tenant move?
Yes. We can talk about whether a voluntary cash-for-keys arrangement may fit the situation. Any move-out and payment terms need to be agreed with the tenant and put in writing.
What should I tell you about access or repairs?
Tell us what the lease says about access, any limits or prior communications, the house’s condition, and repairs you already know about. We can discuss the property and tenancy together.
