Can I sell a house with code violations in Mankato, MN?
The fines don't stop while you think about it. They pile up, they add new ones, and every month takes another bite out of what the property is worth to you. We can buy it quickly, violations and all, so you stop the bleeding and keep your equity.

What we buy
We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us. That includes houses with open code violations; you do not have to finish repairs before considering an offer.
What can affect closing?
Minnesota law lets a municipality ask a court for an order to repair, secure, or remove a hazardous building. If the order is not followed, the municipality may arrange the work and seek its costs, including through a lien against the property. See Minnesota Stat. § 463.17 and § 463.21.
A sale does not automatically end an existing order or court case, or remove a recorded lien. When you sell to us, we're the buyer, so the repairs become our job. Existing orders, court cases, and seller obligations before closing still apply.
What happens next
Tell us the Mankato address and what the notice says. We'll talk through the house and notice with you, then give you a written cash offer and written terms before you decide. We give written cash offers in 24 hours. If you choose to sell, closing is through a title company.
Costs and comparing your options
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including Minnesota deed tax and applicable Hennepin or Ramsey County Environmental Response Fund tax. Your mortgage balance, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes remain separate.
Compare the numbers and repair assumptions with the Mankato home-sale net proceeds calculator. The calculator gives an estimate; the actual number could be more or less depending on the home's condition.
