You're done — no turnover, no repairs, no more bad tenants.

When you sell the house to USA Home Buyers, you can leave the landlord role. A sale is not itself an eviction, so you can start the conversation while the tenants are still there.

USA Home Buyers buys houses as-is in the Town of Bennington and Bennington County, Vermont, including houses with tenants in place. The lease, occupancy, and handoff details belong in the sale discussion.

Call 888-274-5006 or use the form. Tell us what is happening with the lease, access, repairs, or timing.

What we do

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.

Tell us if helping the tenants move may work better for everyone. We can discuss the house and the tenancy together, including access, the lease, and the handoff.

Bring us the problem

Lease timing, limited access, needed repairs, or a difficult conversation with a tenant getting in the way? Tell us what is happening and what you want to happen with the property.

Call 888-274-5006 and talk it through.

What happens next

  1. 1. We discuss the lease, occupancy, and house

    We talk through the Bennington address, who lives there, what the lease says, how access works, the house’s condition, deposit records, and the timing you have in mind. Start with what you know.

  2. 2. You review a written cash offer and terms

    We discuss the property as it stands and the tenancy. We give written cash offers in 24 hours. You can read the proposed price and written terms before you decide.

  3. 3. The title company reviews the closing and handoff

    The lease, occupancy, deposit records, and any possession plan belong in the written handoff discussion. The title company handles the closing; a sale itself does not evict the tenants.

Vermont leases, notice, possession, and security deposits

A sale is not itself an eviction. If you want the house empty, the lease, the reason for ending the tenancy, and local rules matter. Keep the lease and occupancy details in the sale and closing discussion rather than assuming the sale settles possession.

Under Vermont’s basic statewide no-cause rule without a written rental agreement, notice is at least 60 days for a tenant who has lived there two years or less, and 90 days for more than two years. For weekly rent, the minimum is 21 days.

When there is no written rental agreement and the landlord has contracted to sell, the state rule requires at least 30 days’ actual notice. See 9 V.S.A. § 4467(c)–(e). These notice rules depend on the rental arrangement and reason; they do not make the sale itself an eviction or establish a move-out date.

For the deposit handoff, have the lease, deposit balance, records showing who holds the money, and tenant communications ready. Discuss the buyer’s responsibilities and the deposit details in the written closing plan; do not assume the sale alone settles them.

Bennington tenant-occupied house questions

Can I sell a Town of Bennington house while tenants are still living there?

Yes. USA Home Buyers buys houses as-is in the Town of Bennington and Bennington County, including houses with tenants in place. A sale is not itself an eviction; the lease, occupancy, and handoff details still matter.

Do tenants have to move out when the house is sold?

A sale by itself is not an eviction. If you want the house empty, the lease, reason for ending the tenancy, and local rules matter. Vermont notice details are below.

What notice applies if I want the house empty?

Without a written rental agreement, Vermont’s basic statewide no-cause notice is at least 60 days for a tenant who has lived there two years or less, or 90 days for more than two years; weekly rent has a 21-day minimum. If there is no written rental agreement and the landlord has contracted to sell, the sale-specific rule requires at least 30 days’ actual notice. The tenancy and reason matter; see the linked statute and details below.

What happens to the security deposit when I sell?

Gather the lease, deposit balance, records showing who holds it, and tenant communications. Put the buyer’s deposit responsibilities and the handoff details into the written closing plan; do not assume the sale alone settles them.
