We buy the house with its violations
We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us. We'll talk through the house and any repair notice with you.
What can affect closing in Kentucky?
Kentucky law lets cities and counties enforce local codes and assess civil fines. After proper notice, a local government may clear a nuisance property, secure it against entry, or demolish part or all of a structure under KRS 65.8840.
If fines, fees, or abatement costs are recorded with the county clerk, they become a lien on the property. Under KRS 65.8835, that lien can last ten years and the owner remains personally responsible. It ranks ahead of most other liens except state, county, school-board, and city taxes. Under KRS 65.8834, a city may also add an unpaid code lien to the property-tax bill and collect it like unpaid taxes.
When you sell to us, we're the buyer, so the repairs become our job.

Can fines or a code lien affect a sale?
Kentucky law lets cities and counties enforce local codes and assess fines.

The lien can last ten years, and a city may add an unpaid code lien to the property-tax bill.
