Greencastle, IN seller help · Tenant-occupied property
You're done — no turnover, no repairs, no more bad tenants.
Selling to us can put the house behind you, but a sale does not by itself cancel an Indiana rental agreement or move tenants out. The lease, occupancy, rent, and deposit still need a handoff plan.
We buy houses in Greencastle and Putnam County. Call 888-274-5006 or use the form to talk through the house and tenancy. You can call before deciding what to do about the tenants.
We'll give you a written cash offer within 24 hours.
Share the address, lease, occupancy, access, and repair details you know.
USA Home Buyers buys houses as-is in Greencastle and Putnam County. We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us.
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 can talk through who lives there, what the lease says, how access works, current rent, the deposit balance, repairs, and the handoff you want. If a tenant move-out arrangement is part of the conversation, we can discuss whether that approach fits the situation.
Is the lease unclear, access difficult, or a repair getting harder to coordinate with tenants in the house? Tell us what is happening and what you would like the sale to change. Call 888-274-5006 or use the form above; you do not need to resolve every tenancy question before starting a conversation.
The first conversation is about the house and tenancy—not a demand that you make the property vacant first.
Tell us who lives there, the lease term or month-to-month arrangement, current rent, deposit balance, access limits, condition, and the timing you have in mind. Start with what you know; a tenant does not have to move out before you call.
We talk through the house as it stands, access, occupancy, and your preferred handoff. We give written cash offers in 24 hours. You can review the written offer and terms before deciding.
Written offer and written terms before you commit; title-company closing.
The lease, rent, and security-deposit balance need to be accounted for at closing. The title and closing professionals can identify the paperwork needed for this sale and its tenant handoff.
For county-record questions connected to the property, contact the Putnam County Recorder’s Office. Ask the office directly about the records it can provide and its current process.
Selling a rented house does not by itself end the rental agreement. The lease, rent, and security-deposit balance need to be accounted for at closing.
If you decide 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. A sale by itself does not end the lease.

A sale does not automatically erase the former landlord’s security-deposit responsibility. The deposit transfer and the buyer’s notice to the tenant accepting responsibility matter, so account for the balance and transfer plan at closing.

Here's what sellers have said about working with us.
“I retired from Carle Hospital after thirty-three years as a nurse and decided to move to Arizona to be near my son. My house in Lincolnwood had been good to me but it needed some work I wasn't willing to do. USA Home Buyers made an offer the day after we spoke. I was in Tucson six weeks later.”
“I'd been renting to UIUC students in Old West Urbana for eleven years. Every August it was the same: new tenants, new damage, new headaches. Last summer I decided I was done. USA Home Buyers bought the place tenant-occupied. Closed in twelve days. I'm out of the landlord business.”
“The Champaign County divorce decree required the house to be sold. It's in Savoy, near the university, good area — but we couldn't agree on anything. One offer was already written up for us and both of us just had to sign. Twelve days and it was done. The attorneys took care of the rest.”
Yes. You can talk with us while tenants are still there. An Indiana sale does not by itself end the rental agreement, so the lease, rent, occupancy, and security-deposit balance need to be accounted for at closing.
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. The lease and possession details still matter to the handoff.
No. Selling a rented house does not by itself end the rental agreement. The lease and occupancy need to be part of the sale discussion and closing handoff.
Account for the deposit balance at closing. A sale does not automatically erase the former landlord’s responsibility: transferring the deposit and the buyer’s notice accepting responsibility matter.
Generally, notice equal to one rental period is required. The lease and the reason for ending the tenancy can change what is required. See the Indiana notice section and linked source below.
