What we do

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.

We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us.

We can talk through the lease, who lives in the house, access, repairs, and how you want the handoff to go. If a move-out agreement would work better for everyone, we can discuss cash-for-keys.

Indiana leases, notice, and security deposits

Selling a rented house does not by itself end the rental agreement. The lease, rent, and security-deposit balance need to be accounted for in the handoff. Security deposits typically transfer with the house at closing, though the handoff is often negotiated. See Indiana Code § 32-31-3-19 and the Indiana Court of Appeals decision in May v. Sharp (2025).

If you want to end an ordinary month-to-month tenancy, Indiana generally requires notice equal to one rental period. The lease and the reason for ending it can change what is required. See Indiana Code § 32-31-1-4.
