Fremont, OH seller help · Tenant-occupied property

You're done — no turnover, no repairs, no more bad tenants.

Yes. You can sell your Fremont house with the tenants still there. If you sell to us with tenants in place, we become the landlord; the lease typically stays with the house. A sale does not by itself cancel the lease.

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

Call 888-274-5006 or use the form. Tell us what is happening with the lease, access, repairs, or timing.

We give written cash offers in 24 hours.

Share what you know about the property, lease, occupancy, and access.

What we do

We talk through the house and tenancy together: who lives there, what the lease says, how access works, what repairs are involved, and what timing you have in mind. You can start the sale conversation without first making the property vacant.

You don't 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.

If a move-out arrangement would work better for everyone, tell us. We can discuss whether cash-for-keys fits the situation; any move-out terms need to be agreed and handled under the lease and applicable process.

Bring us the problem

Is the lease near renewal, is access hard to arrange, do repairs need attention, or are you unsure what happens to the deposit? Tell us what is going on with the property and tenancy. Call 888-274-5006 and talk it through.

What happens next

  1. 1. We discuss the lease, occupancy, and house

    We talk through the lease, who lives there, access, repairs, rent, the deposit, and timing. You can start with what you know; the house does not need to be vacant before we talk.

  2. 2. We review the house and give you written terms

    We discuss the house as it stands, the occupancy arrangement, access, and timing. We'll give you a written cash offer within 24 hours. You can review the written offer and terms before deciding whether to move forward.

  3. 3. The closing plan accounts for the tenancy

    If you choose to proceed, the sale closes through a title company. We discuss the lease, occupancy, and security-deposit handoff as part of the written terms rather than assuming the tenants have moved.

Ohio lease, notice, possession, and security-deposit rules

A sale does not by itself cancel a lease. The lease typically stays with the house, and if we buy it with tenants in place, we become the landlord. You can sell without tenants moving just because the property changed hands.

If you want the house empty

Ohio Revised Code §5321.17 calls for written notice at least 30 days before the next rent due date to end a month-to-month tenancy, or 7 days for a week-to-week tenancy. Read Ohio Revised Code §5321.17.

These notice periods concern ending a month-to-month or week-to-week tenancy. Notice and possession are separate from selling the house with tenants in place.

Security deposits at closing

If you sell to us with tenants in place, security deposits typically transfer to us at closing, with the amount and handoff addressed in the written terms.

Questions and contact

Compare the written offer with your other options and expected costs using the Fremont home-sale net proceeds calculator. The calculator is an estimate, and its inputs are editable.

Tenant-occupied seller questions

Can I sell my Fremont house while tenants are still living there?

Yes. You can sell a tenant-occupied house in Fremont, OH and Sandusky County. The lease typically stays with the house, and if you sell to us with the tenants in place, we become the landlord. Tenants do not have to move just because the property is sold.

Does selling the house end the lease?

No. A sale does not by itself cancel a lease. The lease typically stays with the house; notice and possession are separate questions if your goal is to sell the property empty.

What notice applies if I want to end a periodic tenancy in Ohio?

Ohio Revised Code §5321.17 calls for written notice at least 30 days before the next rent due date for a month-to-month tenancy, or 7 days for a week-to-week tenancy. Check the lease and actual tenancy before relying on a notice date.

What happens to the security deposit when the house is sold?

If you sell to us with tenants in place, security deposits typically transfer to us at closing, with the amount and handoff addressed in the written terms.

Do I need to evict before I talk with you about selling?

You don't 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.

Do I need to repair or clean the house first?

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