We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us.
Tell us about the house as it stands, including repairs, safety issues, and any city or county notice you have received. You do not need to finish repairs or clean out the house before talking with us.
Kentucky law lets cities and counties enforce local codes and assess civil fines. After giving the owner proper notice, a local government may also clear a nuisance, secure it against entry, or demolish all or part of a structure. See KRS 65.8840.
Fines, fees, and abatement costs become a lien on the property once recorded with the county clerk. The lien ranks ahead of most other liens except state, county, school board, and city taxes; it can last ten years, and the owner remains personally responsible for the amount. See KRS 65.8835. Cities may also add unpaid code liens to the property-tax bill and collect them like unpaid taxes. See KRS 65.8834.
Check the notice for its issuing office and any stated deadline. Ask that city or county about the current status of the violation and whether a lien has been recorded. A recorded lien is separate from repair work and may affect the sale; the title company can review the property records and the closing requirements for the transaction.
When you sell to us, we're the buyer, so the repairs become our job.
The repairs becoming our job does not automatically cancel an existing order, court case, lien, statutory deadline, or seller obligation before closing.
