What we buy
We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us. We can talk through the notice and what work it calls for with you.
What can affect closing
Missouri law lets cities, towns, villages, and first-class or charter counties adopt dangerous-building ordinances. An ordinance can require a building to be vacated, repaired, or demolished. The notice and hearing process varies by locality. If required work is not done, the local government may arrange it, and the cost can become a special tax bill and property lien or a contractor's lien. See RSMo §67.400 and §67.410.
When you sell to us, we're the buyer, so the repairs become our job.
The City of Cape Girardeau's Inspection Services office handles building inspections, building-plan and site-layout review, and City-adopted construction-code matters. Visit City of Cape Girardeau Inspection Services. Cape Girardeau, Jackson, and Delta are separate municipalities in the county. Not sure which office issued your notice?
