What we buy
We buy Norfolk houses with code violations, unsafe conditions, and repair needs as-is. You do not have to repair, clean, or clear out the house before asking us to review it. Tell us the address and what you know about the notice, inspection, or permit; we can discuss the property with those issues in place.
What can affect closing in Nebraska
Nebraska lets cities and villages define nuisances and remove them. If an owner does not follow a city notice to repair, rehabilitate, or tear down an unsafe building that is a public nuisance, the city can do the work itself. It may charge the cost to the property as a special assessment—a lien on the real estate—or sue the owner to collect it. Read Neb. Rev. Stat. § 18-1720 and § 18-1722. Each city's code sets its own deadlines, fines, and appeal steps, so ask Norfolk what is open for the address and whether any charge has been added.
When you sell to us, we're the buyer, so the repairs become our job.
That does not automatically erase an existing order, court case, lien, deadline, or seller obligation before closing. Keep the notice and any related papers available so the actual property details can be reviewed.
