What we do
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.
If helping the tenants move may work better for everyone, tell us that too. We can discuss the occupancy and the house together; you do not need to settle every tenancy question before calling.
Bring us the problem
Lease timing, limits on access, repairs, written notices, or a difficult occupancy situation? Tell us what is happening. Call 888-274-5006 and talk it through; you do not need to have a solution ready first.
What happens next
1. We discuss the lease, occupancy, and house
Tell us who lives there, what the lease says, how access works, what repairs are needed, and what you hope will happen with possession. Start with what you know.
2. We put the offer and terms in writing
We discuss the house as it stands and the tenancy. We give written cash offers in 24 hours. You can review the written offer and terms before you commit.
Written offer and written terms before you commit; title-company closing.
3. A title company handles closing
The title company reviews the sale documents and closing figures. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. That does not pay your mortgage, liens, back taxes, or your share of current property taxes; those remain separate. Discuss the lease and security-deposit details as part of the written sale and closing terms.

New Mexico tenant rights, notice, possession, and security deposits
A sale does not automatically end the rental agreement; the new owner takes over its obligations. Give the tenant written notice of the ownership change under New Mexico Statutes § 47-8-21.
If you want to end an ordinary month-to-month tenancy, written notice must be given at least 30 days before the periodic rental date stated in the notice. For a week-to-week tenancy, the minimum is seven days before the termination date under § 47-8-37. A fixed lease and applicable local rules still matter. These notice periods address ending those periodic tenancies; a sale itself does not end a lease or set a move-out date.
For a security deposit, keep the lease, balance and records together, and note who holds the money. Ask the closing professionals how any agreed treatment of the actual balance will appear in the written sale and closing terms.

Las Cruces tenant-occupied seller questions
Can I sell my Las Cruces house while tenants still live there?
Yes. A sale does not automatically end the rental agreement; the new owner takes over its obligations. You can talk with us about the house and tenancy while the tenants are still there.
Do I have to evict before I talk with you?
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 about the property and tenancy.
What notice applies if I want to end a New Mexico tenancy?
For an ordinary month-to-month tenancy, written notice must be given at least 30 days before the periodic rental date stated in the notice. For a week-to-week tenancy, the minimum is seven days before the termination date. A fixed lease and applicable local rules still matter. These periods do not mean a sale itself ends the tenancy.
What happens to the security deposit when the house is sold?
Keep the lease, deposit balance and records, and the name of the person holding the money together. Ask the closing professionals how any agreed treatment of the actual balance will appear in the written sale and closing terms.
Can we talk about access or repairs before I decide what to do?
Yes. Tell us what the lease says about access, what repairs the house needs, who is living there, and what you hope will happen with possession. We buy houses as-is, so no repairs, cleaning, or cleanout are required to sell to us.
What should I have ready before I call?
Nothing has to be perfect before you call. If available, have the address, lease, rent and deposit records, access details, notices, condition information, and the timing you are considering nearby.
