What we do with a tenant-occupied house

We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us. Tell us what is happening with the rental and what you want from the sale.

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.

Bring us the problem

Tell us what is going on with the lease, tenant access, or repairs. You can call with the problem as it stands; you don't need to settle every tenancy question before talking with us.

Call 888-274-5006 and tell us what is happening.

What happens next

  1. 1. We discuss the house and tenancy

    We talk through the address, house condition, who lives there, what the lease says, access, deposit records, and what you want to happen.

  2. 2. We put the offer and terms in writing

    We give written cash offers in 24 hours. You can read the proposed price and written terms before you decide whether to commit.

  3. 3. The closing professionals address the handoff

    The lease, occupancy, and deposit arrangements need to be addressed for the sale. Written offer and written terms before you commit; title-company closing.

  4. 4. You review the closing paperwork

    Bring the lease and deposit records to the closing attorney so the transfer and other tenancy details can be arranged and documented correctly.

Local help for a Hammond rental

City of Hammond Building Department

For building-permit or city code-enforcement questions about a property inside Hammond, start with the City's Building Department. A Hammond mailing address alone does not establish which city rules apply; give the office the property address. This office is a local starting point for property work questions, not lease or deposit advice.

Louisiana leases, notice, possession, and security deposits

Selling the house does not by itself end the landlord-tenant agreement. Keep the lease, occupancy details, and deposit records together so the closing attorney can address the handoff.

The lease and possession

A recorded lease can bind a buyer. The buyer does not automatically assume all of the seller's personal lease obligations, so those rights and obligations need to be addressed at closing. A sale by itself is not a move-out date; discuss whether the house will be sold with the tenants in place or with another possession arrangement.

Read 2026 Act 240 / SB 77, effective August 1, 2026 (Civil Code arts. 2681.1, 2711, and 2712), or the enrolled statutory text.

Notice for a month-to-month tenancy

If you plan to end a month-to-month tenancy, Louisiana's basic rule is at least ten calendar days before the end of the month. For a residential house, the notice must be in writing. The lease and other applicable protections can affect the answer.

See Civil Code art. 2728 on notice periods and art. 2729 on written notice.

Security deposits

Have the leases and deposit records ready so the closing attorney can arrange the transfer correctly. Bring the amount held, who holds it, and any written deposit terms to the closing discussion; the transfer and related responsibilities should be addressed in the closing documents.
