Brattleboro, VT · Windham County · Tenant-occupied property
You're done — no turnover, no repairs, no more bad tenants.
Yes. You can sell a rental in the Town of Brattleboro with tenants still living there. When you sell to USA Home Buyers, you can leave the landlord role behind without first making the house vacant.
We buy houses as-is in Brattleboro and Windham County, Vermont, including homes with tenants in place. Call 888-274-5006 or use the form to talk through the lease and property.
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 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 about the property and tenancy.
Sometimes an agreed move-out is a better fit for everyone. We can talk through whether cash-for-keys makes sense with the lease, the tenant’s situation, and the closing plan.
Bring us the problem
Lease timing, limited access, needed repairs, or a difficult tenant conversation getting in the way? Tell us what is happening with the house and what you hope will happen next.
Call 888-274-5006 and talk it through.
What happens next
1. We discuss the lease, occupancy, and house
We talk through the Brattleboro property, who lives there, what the lease says, how access works, the house’s condition, and any rent or deposit details that matter to the handoff.
2. You review the written offer and terms
We discuss the house as it stands and the tenant situation. We give written cash offers in 24 hours. You get a written offer and written terms before you commit.
3. The title company handles closing
If you decide to proceed, we close through a title company. The lease, occupancy, deposit details, and any agreed possession plan are part of the closing handoff.

Vermont leases, notice, possession, and security deposits
Selling the house does not end the lease or make a tenant move out. You can sell with tenants in place; if you want the house vacant first, Vermont’s notice rules apply.
Under Vermont’s basic statewide no-cause rule for a tenancy without a written rental agreement, notice is at least 60 days for a tenant who has lived there two years or less, 90 days for more than two years, and 21 days for weekly rent. If the landlord has contracted to sell and there is no written rental agreement, the state rule requires at least 30 days’ actual notice. These rules are in 9 V.S.A. § 4467(c)–(e).
The security deposit is part of the tenant handoff. We’ll discuss how the buyer’s responsibilities are handled at closing.
What our sellers say
“LISTEN, PROPERTY TAXES GOT TOO HIGH FOR MY FIXED INCOME. SOLD IT TO THEM. WALKED AWAY WITH CASH. GLAD IT'S OVER.”
“Facing foreclosure ... Very stressful time... They handled it professionally and got me out of the debt...”
“no open houses. no realtors tracking dirt in. just a straight cash sale for our house so we could move. Glad it's over.”
