Can I Sell My O'Fallon House With Tenants Still Living There?
You're done — no turnover, no repairs, no more bad tenants.
Yes. You can sell your O'Fallon house with tenants still living there. We buy houses with the lease and occupancy in mind, so you can talk through the handoff before deciding what to do next.
Call 888-274-5006 or use the form to tell us about the house and tenancy.
What we do
We buy tenant-occupied houses in O'Fallon and St. Charles County. We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us.
You don't always need to evict to sell to us. We buy houses with tenants in place — we've done it many times, including cash-for-keys when that works better for everyone.
Cash-for-keys means an agreed move-out payment; it can be an option when that works better for everyone.

You get a written offer and written terms before you commit, and we close through a title company.

Missouri tenant rights, notice, and security deposits
The lease when the house sells
A sale by itself does not end the lease or make tenants move. You can transfer a rented property and the right to future rent without tenant consent unless the lease says otherwise. The buyer becomes the landlord. A tenant who pays the former owner before receiving notice of the sale is protected. Read RSMo §441.140 and §441.130.
If you want to end a month-to-month tenancy
Written notice generally must set an end date on a rent-paying date at least one month after the tenant receives it. Read RSMo §441.060.
Security deposits
Missouri caps security deposits at two months' rent. When the tenancy ends, the landlord generally must return the deposit within 30 days or provide an itemized list of lawful deductions and return the balance. At sale, the purchase agreement and closing statement should account for the deposit. We talk through the lease and deposit records with you as we plan the handoff. Read RSMo §535.300.

O'Fallon tenant-occupied seller questions
Can I sell my O'Fallon house while tenants still live there?
Yes. We buy houses in O'Fallon and St. Charles County with tenants in place. Missouri generally lets an owner transfer rented property and the right to future rent without tenant consent, unless the lease says otherwise. The buyer becomes the landlord.
Do I have to evict tenants before selling?
You don't always need to evict to sell to us. We buy houses with tenants in place — we've done it many times, including cash-for-keys when that works better for everyone.
Do tenants have to move when the house sells?
No. A sale by itself does not end the lease or require tenants to move. The buyer becomes the landlord, and the lease still matters.
How much notice ends a month-to-month tenancy in Missouri?
A month-to-month tenancy generally ends on a rent-paying date at least one month after the tenant receives written notice.
What happens to the tenant’s security deposit?
Missouri caps security deposits at two months’ rent. When the tenancy ends, the landlord generally must return the deposit within 30 days or provide an itemized list of lawful deductions and return the balance. The purchase agreement and closing statement should account for the deposit when the house sells.
What if a tenant pays me before hearing about the sale?
A tenant who pays the former owner before receiving notice of the sale is protected. After the tenant receives notice, the buyer may collect future rent.
