Brownsville, TX seller help · Tenant-occupied property
Yes. You can sell your Brownsville house while tenants are still living there. A sale does not by itself cancel an active lease or require the tenants to move. The line above is the landlord-exit benefit if you sell to us; it does not mean the tenants must leave before a sale.

A sale does not by itself cancel the lease. If the property sells while a lease is active, the buyer becomes the new landlord. The lease and the actual occupancy still matter when you decide how possession will work.
Tenants do not have to move just because the house is sold. If you want the property vacant, the sale itself is not a move-out notice or a new possession date. Check the lease and any notice already given before making a plan for when the tenants will leave.
For a month-to-month tenancy with monthly rent, either side can end it by giving notice. It ends on the later of the date in the notice or one month after the notice is given. A lease signed by both sides can set a different notice period. This notice rule is separate from selling the house; a sale alone does not end the tenancy.
From the day the new owner gets title, the new owner is responsible for returning the security deposit. The new owner must give each tenant a signed statement saying the property was bought, the new owner is responsible for the deposit, and the exact dollar amount.
You remain responsible for deposits you collected until the new owner receives them or takes over that responsibility, unless your written contract says otherwise. Keep copies of every lease and deposit record; crediting the deposits to the buyer at closing is a practical way to account for them.
Compare the written terms with your other options. Call 888-274-5006 with a question, or use a local seller resource below.
