What we buy
We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us. We can talk through the house and notice with you before you decide what to do.
What can affect closing
Kentucky law lets cities and counties enforce local codes and assess civil fines. After proper notice, a local government may clear a nuisance property, secure it against entry, or demolish part or all of a structure under KRS 65.8840. If fines, fees, or abatement costs are recorded with the county clerk, they become a lien on the property. Under KRS 65.8835, the lien can last ten years and the owner remains personally responsible for the amount. It ranks ahead of most other liens except state, county, school-board, and city taxes. A city may also add an unpaid code lien to the property-tax bill and collect it like unpaid taxes under KRS 65.8834.
An open code notice, order, or court case may affect the sale before closing. We can talk through the notice and the house with you.
When you sell to us, we're the buyer, so the repairs become our job.
