Can I Sell My Manchester House With Tenants Still Living There?
You're done — no turnover, no repairs, no more bad tenants.
Yes, you can sell while tenants still live in the house. We buy houses with tenants in place, so you do not have to make the house vacant first.
Call 888-274-5006 or use the form. Tell us what is happening with the lease, access, or repairs.
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.
We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us.
Cash-for-keys is an agreed payment for a tenant to move out. We can talk through whether that approach fits your tenancy.

We give written cash offers in 24 hours.
You get a written offer and written terms before you commit, and we close through a title company.

Connecticut leases, eviction rules, and security deposits
In an ordinary Connecticut sale, the buyer generally becomes the new landlord and the existing lease stays in effect. If you want a tenant to move, the lease and Connecticut’s notice-to-quit and eviction rules apply. Read Connecticut’s notice-to-quit law.
In a building with five or more units, some tenants who are 62 or older or have a disability can be evicted only for good cause. A change of ownership is not good cause under Connecticut’s good-cause eviction law.
At the transfer, you must take the tenants’ security deposits and earned interest out of escrow and deliver them to the buyer. Landlords must pay interest each year at no less than the rate set by the Banking Commissioner. The new owner is responsible for returning deposits when tenancies end, even if the prior owner did not hand them over. See Connecticut’s security-deposit law and the Banking Commissioner’s deposit interest rates.
We can talk through the lease, deposit and interest details, and the tenant handoff with you as part of the sale.
