What we buy
We buy the house with its violations in place
You can sell to us with the code issues still there. You do not have to make repairs, clean, or clear out the house first.
What can affect closing
The notice, issuing authority, and deadline matter
If the home is rented, Washington law requires the landlord to maintain it in substantial compliance with applicable codes during the tenancy. Washington law, RCW 59.18.060(1).
A sale does not itself clear a local order, fine, lien, occupancy restriction, or permit obligation. A notice or deadline may affect closing. We can talk through the notice, who issued it, and what remains open.
When you sell to us, we're the buyer, so the repairs become our job.
