Tenant-occupied seller help · Huntington, WV
Yes. You can sell your Huntington house with tenants still living there. USA Home Buyers buys houses in Huntington, Cabell County, and Wayne County, West Virginia. A sale by itself does not cancel a lease or require the tenant to move.

Share the address, what you know about the lease, occupancy, access, repairs, and timing.
We'll give you a written cash offer within 24 hours.
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 who is living there, what the lease says, how access works, and what you hope happens next.
If a move-out arrangement is being considered, you and the tenant can discuss the terms and put any agreement in writing. The sale and any separate possession plan are different questions; we can talk through the property without treating the tenancy as already resolved.
A lease question, limited access, a repair issue, unpaid rent, a notice, or a difficult move-out conversation can all be part of the house you want to sell. Call and tell us what is happening; you do not have to make the situation sound simple first.
Call 888-274-5006 to talk about the tenancy and the property.
Tell us what you know about the lease, who is living there, access, rent and deposit records, repairs, the home's condition, and your timing. Start with the facts you have; a tenant does not have to move before you call.
We give written cash offers in 24 hours. You can read the written price and terms before you decide.
Written offer and written terms before you commit; title-company closing.
If you choose to proceed, the title-company closing gives the parties a place to document the sale and its terms. The lease and each security deposit should be accounted for in the transaction documents. Keep the lease, deposit records, and tenant notices together for that discussion.
Huntington is the county seat of Cabell County and extends into Wayne County. A Huntington mailing address does not establish whether a property is inside city limits or which county office serves its parcel. Check the address with the City and the appropriate county before relying on a local process.
For a property inside Huntington city limits, the City's page describes its rental-inspection program and provides rental complaint and inspection contacts. Ask the City about the specific property; the program page does not establish that a particular rental is registered or inspected.
Use the City Boundary Lookup to check whether the address is within City limits.
Contact the City about a city permit or unsafe-building notice. City requirements apply to property within the City's jurisdiction; confirm the address before relying on a City process.
For a Cabell County property, the Courthouse–Suite 108 is at 750 5th Avenue, Huntington, WV 25701-2072. Call the Record Room at 304-526-9820 about deeds and other county records, or Probate at 304-526-8627 for probate routing.

Yes, you can sell a leased house with the tenant still there. West Virginia law says a buyer of leased property steps into the landlord's position, and the tenant keeps the same lease rights against the buyer. The sale by itself does not cancel the lease, require the tenant to move, or give you possession of the house.
If you are seeking possession for a reason separate from the sale, the lease and the notice and possession rules for that tenancy still matter. Do not treat the sale as a move-out notice or a move-out date. The law links below describe the effect of a transfer and define a notice period; they do not create one universal move-out date for every tenancy.
When the tenancy ends, the landlord at that time must return any security deposit owed to the tenant, even if someone else originally received it. The purchase contract and closing statement should account for each deposit so the handoff is documented.
After the tenancy ends, the amount owed after allowed deductions is due within 60 days, or within 45 days after a new tenant moves in, whichever comes first. Keep the lease, deposit balance and records, and tenant notices available for the sale and closing discussion.

For leased property, the buyer steps into the landlord’s position and can enforce the lease. The tenant keeps the same lease rights against the buyer that they had against the seller; the sale alone does not set a move-out date.
