You're done — no turnover, no repairs, no more bad tenants.
Yes. USA Home Buyers buys houses as-is in Fremont and Newaygo County, Michigan, including houses with tenants still living there.
After you sell the house to us, you can leave the turnover and repair work behind. The sale itself does not end an existing lease or make a tenant move, so we talk through the lease, occupancy, and any security deposit as part of the handoff.
Call 888-274-5006 or use the form to ask about a cash offer. You do not need to make the house vacant before starting the conversation.
We give written cash offers in 24 hours.
Share the Fremont address and what you know about the lease, access, and occupancy.
What we do with a tenant-occupied house
We talk through the house and the tenancy together: who lives there, what the lease says, how access works, the rent and deposit records, repairs, and the timing you have in mind.
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. Tell us about the property and tenancy.
We can discuss whether selling with the tenants in place or talking through a move-out arrangement may work better for everyone. The lease and applicable rules still matter to that decision.
Bring us the problem
Lease timing, limited access, needed repairs, unpaid rent, or a move-out conversation getting in the way? Call 888-274-5006 and tell us what is happening. We can discuss the house as it stands and how the tenancy affects the handoff.
What happens next
1. We discuss the lease, occupancy, and house
We talk through who lives there, the lease term, access, known repairs, the deposit, tenant notices, and your timing. Start with what you know; you can call before deciding whether anyone needs to move.
2. We review the property and put the offer in writing
We give written cash offers in 24 hours. You can read the proposed price and terms before you commit.
We put the offer and terms in writing before you decide whether to accept. If you choose to sell, the closing takes place through a title company.
3. The title company works through the handoff
We discuss how the lease, deposit records, tenant notices, and any possession arrangement fit into closing. The sale terms and tenancy details can be addressed in writing before closing.
Local help for a Fremont rental
Newaygo County lists Fremont City separately from townships, so the office that handles a code or permit question can depend on the property's local unit.

The County publishes permit and inspection information. Its service map shows where County service applies.
Michigan lease, notice, possession, and security-deposit rules
You can sell a house with a tenant in place. We talk through the lease, notices, occupancy, and deposit so the handoff can be addressed in writing.
Michigan Judicial Institute — new owners and an existing tenancy
An ordinary sale generally leaves the existing lease in place, and the buyer takes the property subject to the remaining lease term. Selling the house does not by itself make the tenant move.
Michigan Compiled Laws §554.134 — ending a tenancy
If you want to end a tenancy, Michigan has different notice rules for different rental arrangements and reasons, including unpaid rent. The lease and the reason for ending the tenancy matter; the sale itself is not a move-out notice.
Michigan Compiled Laws §600.5714 — court process for possession
If a tenancy has ended and the tenant has not left, Michigan law provides a court process for seeking possession. A sale does not set a move-out date or replace the process that applies to the tenancy.
Michigan Compiled Laws §554.614 — security deposits when ownership changes
A sale does not automatically release the former landlord from responsibility for a security deposit. One way to end that responsibility is to give the deposit to the new owner and notify the tenant by ordinary mail of the transfer and the new owner's name and address. Give the buyer the leases, deposit records, and tenant notices so those obligations can be handled at closing.

Fremont tenant-occupied seller questions
Can I sell my Fremont house while tenants are still living there?
Yes. USA Home Buyers buys houses as-is in Fremont and Newaygo County, Michigan, including houses with tenants in place. An ordinary sale generally leaves the lease in place; the sale alone does not make a tenant move.
Do I have to evict before I call?
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. Tell us about the property and tenancy.
Does the sale end the tenant’s lease?
No. An ordinary sale generally leaves the existing lease in place, and the buyer takes the property subject to the remaining lease term. Ending a tenancy depends on the lease and the applicable notice rules.
What about notice and possession?
Michigan notice requirements depend on the tenancy and the reason for ending it. If a tenancy has ended and the tenant has not left, Michigan law provides a court process for seeking possession. The sale itself is not a move-out notice or date.
What happens to the security deposit when the house is sold?
A sale does not automatically release the seller from responsibility for the deposit. One way to end that responsibility is to transfer the deposit to the new owner and notify the tenant by ordinary mail of the transfer and the new owner’s name and address. Keep the lease, deposit record, and tenant notices with the closing information.
