What we buy with code violations
USA Home Buyers buys houses as-is in Monticello and White County, including houses with repair needs or code concerns. You do not have to finish repairs, clean the house, or clear it out to sell to us. Tell us what the notice says and what you know about inspections, permits, deadlines, or court papers so we can discuss the property as it is.
What an Indiana unsafe-building order can mean for closing
You can sell a house with an unsafe-building order, but a recorded order stays with the property and 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. Where the law applies, an owner who received an order and has not complied 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. Ask the enforcement official named on your notice which requirements apply to your property and whether any court restrictions remain. Bring the notice, inspection paperwork, permit records, and deadlines to the title-company closing professional early.
Read Indiana Code § 36-7-9-1 on where the law applies and Indiana Code §§ 36-7-9-26 and 36-7-9-27 on transfers.
When you sell to us, we’re the buyer, so the repairs become our job.
This does not erase an existing order or court case, or a duty you still have before closing.
What happens next
Start with the property address and the notice or inspection paperwork you have. We’ll talk through the house, the condition, and what the notice says; you do not need to finish the repairs before asking us to review it.
Written offer and written terms before you commit; title-company closing.
The title company and the enforcement authority can confirm what remains in the actual file. A sale does not automatically remove an order, court case, or deadline.
Costs and questions
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes remain separate; the title company confirms the amounts for the closing.

We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us.

No. A sale does not automatically erase an existing order or court case, or a duty that applies before closing. Ask the enforcement official named on the notice and the closing professional to check the actual file.
