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

Call 888-274-5006 or use the form below. You do not have to solve the tenancy before you call.
Talk through your Hutchinson tenant-occupied house
Tell us what is happening with the lease, rent, access, repairs, and timing. Start with the facts you know; you can call before making a move-out decision.
We give written cash offers in 24 hours.
Share the address, lease details, access limits, occupancy, and timing.
What we do
We start with the house and the tenancy: who lives there, what the lease says, how access works, what rent and deposits are involved, and what timing you are considering.
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.
Bring us the problem
Lease timing, limited access, a tenant who is behind, or repairs that are hard to coordinate? Call 888-274-5006 and tell us what is going on. We can talk through the property and tenancy before you decide what to do next.
What happens next
1. We talk through the house and lease
We discuss the house, who lives there, the lease, access, any deposit records that matter, and your timing. Start with what you know; you do not need to have everything organized first.
2. We review the property and make a written offer
We look at the house as it stands and discuss how its condition, occupancy, and access fit the sale. Then we give you a written offer and terms to review.
3. You read the terms and close through a title company
You can read the written offer and terms before you commit. If you decide to proceed, the sale closes through a title company; we discuss the lease, occupancy, and deposit handoff as part of the sale.

Minnesota lease, notice, access, possession, and deposit rules
In an ordinary Minnesota sale, the existing lease transfers to the buyer, who becomes the landlord. The sale itself does not cancel the lease or require the tenant to move.
Written notice for a tenancy at will — Minn. Stat. § 504B.135
If the tenancy is at will, either side can end it with written notice. Minnesota sets the notice at least as long as the interval between rent due dates, or three months, whichever is less. That formula is for a tenancy at will; do not apply it automatically to a fixed-term lease or a different reason for ending a tenancy.
Entry and buyer showings — Minn. Stat. § 504B.211
Minnesota law recognizes showing a rental to a prospective buyer as a reasonable business purpose for entry. The landlord must make a good-faith effort to give reasonable notice; 24 hours is presumed reasonable. The notice must give a time or anticipated window, and entry is generally between 8 a.m. and 8 p.m. unless the tenant agrees to another time.
Recovering possession — Minn. Stat. § 504B.285
If a tenant stays after a tenancy has ended, Minnesota law identifies an eviction action as the court process for recovering possession in the situations listed in the statute. A notice is not the same as possession. Ask the McLeod County District Court or an attorney about the process that fits the lease and facts.
Security deposits when ownership changes — Minn. Stat. § 504B.178
The former landlord generally has 60 days after the ownership change to transfer the deposit, including required interest, to the new owner and notify the tenant, or return it to the tenant. If the new owner must account for the deposit sooner, that earlier deadline applies.

Seller reviews
What sellers say about USA Home Buyers
Hutchinson tenant-occupied seller questions
Can I sell my Hutchinson house while tenants are still living there?
Yes. In an ordinary Minnesota sale, the existing lease transfers to the buyer, who becomes the landlord. USA Home Buyers buys houses as-is in Hutchinson and McLeod County, including houses with tenants in place; the sale by itself does not cancel the lease or require the tenant to move.
Do I have to evict before I call?
No. You can call while the tenants are still there and talk through the lease, access, repairs, and the outcome you want. A sale does not replace the notice or possession process that applies to the tenancy.
How much notice does a tenant-at-will need?
For a tenancy at will, Minnesota requires written notice at least as long as the interval between rent due dates, or three months, whichever is less. That rule is for a tenancy at will; check the actual lease and reason for ending the tenancy before relying on a notice period.
What happens to the security deposit when the house sells?
The former landlord generally has 60 days after the ownership change to transfer the deposit, including required interest, to the new owner and notify the tenant, or return it to the tenant. If the new owner must account for the deposit sooner, that earlier deadline applies.
Can I show the house to a buyer while it is rented?
Minnesota law treats showing a rental to a prospective buyer as a reasonable business purpose for entry. The landlord must make a good-faith effort to give reasonable notice; 24 hours is presumed reasonable, and the notice must give a time or anticipated window. Entry is generally between 8 a.m. and 8 p.m. unless the tenant agrees to another time.
