Pickerington, OH · Fairfield County · Code violations
Can you sell a house with code violations in Pickerington, OH?
The fines don't stop while you think about it. They pile up, they add new ones, and every month takes another bite out of what the property is worth to you. We can buy it quickly, violations and all, so you stop the bleeding and keep your equity.
Yes. We buy Pickerington and Fairfield County houses with open code violations. We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us.
We answer 24/7 at 888-274-5006.
What we buy
We buy the house with its open violations and repair needs as it stands. Tell us what the notice says and what is happening with the property; we can talk it through with you. You do not need to make repairs before you ask us about selling.
What can affect closing
Usually, yes—you can sell an Ohio house with open code violations. If you received a written notice of building or housing code violations, Ohio law requires you to tell the buyer about those violations in writing before you sign the sale agreement. That rule is in Ohio Rev. Code §5301.253.
If the city has already taken you to court over the violations, selling does not automatically end that case. If that's you, call us and we'll walk through it with you.
When you sell to us, we're the buyer, so the repairs become our job.

What our sellers say
“The house in Allentown was sitting empty for 2 years after my dad passed. getting code violations from the city. sold it to them for cash, no cleanup needed.”
“The house had some foundation issues and hadn't been updated since the 80s. I got quotes from contractors and the repair costs were going to eat everything I'd make listing it. USA Home Buyers bought it as-is. I'm glad I called.”
