Tell us about the house and notice; we’ll ask practical questions.
What we buy
We can review the house with its code violations in place. You do not need to finish repairs, clean, or clear out the property before selling to us. Tell us what the notice asks for and what work, if any, has already been done so we can discuss the house as it stands.
What can affect closing
You can sell a house with an unsafe-building order, but a recorded order stays with the property, so the buyer takes it on. Indiana’s Unsafe Building Law applies in Indianapolis and Marion County and in other cities, towns, or counties that have adopted it. The authority that issued your notice matters; do not assume the law applies to every Indiana community.
Where the law applies, an owner who received an order and has not complied must give the buyer full information before transferring or agreeing to transfer the property. Within five days after agreeing to transfer or transferring the interest, the enforcement authority must receive the buyer’s name, address, phone number, and the transfer document. Give the notice and any court papers to the closing professional early so they can check which requirements and restrictions apply.
When you sell to us, we're the buyer, so the repairs become our job. That does not erase an existing order, court case, or seller obligation before closing.
Read Indiana Code §§36-7-9-1 and -3 on where the law applies and §§36-7-9-26 and -27 on transfers.
What happens next
- We talk through the house, what the notice says, and any court papers or repair history.
- We'll give you a written cash offer within 24 hours.
- You receive the written offer and written terms before you commit. If you accept, closing is through a title company.
