We buy Kokomo houses with code violations as-is
You can tell us what the notice says and what condition the house is in before taking on repairs. If you sell to us, you do not need to repair, clean, or clear out the house first. You can compare our written offer with the cost and time of handling the property another way.
What can affect closing in Indiana
You can sell a house with an unsafe-building order, but a recorded order stays with the property, so the buyer takes it on. Indiana’s Unsafe Building Law applies in Indianapolis and Marion County and in other cities, towns, or counties that have adopted it; it does not automatically apply everywhere in Indiana. Check whether it applies to your property and notice.
Where the law applies, if you received an order and have not complied, you must give the buyer full information before transferring or agreeing to transfer the property. Within five days after agreeing to transfer or transferring the interest, the enforcement authority must receive the buyer’s name, address, and phone number and the transfer document. Give the full notice to the closing professional early so the requirements and any court restrictions can be checked.

When you sell to us, we're the buyer, so the repairs become our job.
That does not erase an existing order, court case, or deadline. The actual notice and written terms still matter before closing.
What happens next
- Tell us the property address, what condition it is in, and what the notice or order says. We can talk through what is known and what needs checking.
- We give you a written offer and written terms before you commit.
- If you decide to sell to us, the closing is handled through a title company. Bring the notice and any related court papers to the closing professional early.
Costs and questions
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. This does not pay your mortgage, liens, back taxes, or your share of current property taxes.

Questions about selling with code violations
Can I sell a Kokomo house with code violations?
Yes. USA Home Buyers can review an as-is purchase in Kokomo and Howard County. An unsafe-building order may stay with the property, and Indiana’s Unsafe Building Law applies only where local government has adopted it. Review the actual notice and any court restrictions before agreeing to transfer.
Do I have to repair or clean out the house before selling to you?
We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us.
Does a recorded unsafe-building order go away when the house sells?
No. A recorded order stays with the property, so the buyer takes it on. If Indiana’s Unsafe Building Law applies and you have not complied with an order, you must give the buyer full information before transferring or agreeing to transfer the property. The enforcement authority must receive the buyer’s contact information and transfer document within five days after agreeing to transfer or transferring the interest.
What happens after I contact USA Home Buyers?
We talk through the house and the notice, then give you a written offer and written terms before you commit. Closing is through a title company.
