What we do

You don't 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. Tell us about the property and tenancy.

We can talk through the lease, who is living in the house, access, repairs, and the handoff you want to discuss. You do not have to settle every tenancy question before calling.

Local help for a Quincy property

Adams County Recorder of Deeds

The county Recorder is the local office for deed and land-record questions. Recorded property documents can help with the sale paperwork; this office does not determine lease terms, tenant notice, possession, or security-deposit obligations.

Illinois lease, notice, possession, and deposit rules

An ordinary sale generally leaves the existing lease in place. Tenants do not have to move just because the house sells; the sale itself does not give you possession of an occupied home.

Month-to-month notice

If you want to end an ordinary month-to-month tenancy, Illinois generally requires 30 days' written notice. Local rules and the lease can require more. Read 735 ILCS 5/9-207, Illinois' month-to-month notice rule for the state statute.

Security deposits and prepaid rent

Security deposits and prepaid rent need to be accounted for at closing. An ordinary sale does not automatically release the previous landlord from those obligations. See 765 ILCS 710/1.1, Illinois security-deposit law for the state source.

What sellers say about USA Home Buyers

Here's what sellers have said about working with us.

“My husband retired from the Illinois State Library after thirty-one years. We'd talked about moving to Florida for years. The house in North Glenwood was fine — just bigger than we needed. USA Home Buyers gave us a fair offer. We closed in eight days and were in Sarasota before the weather turned cold.”
Alice and Ben W.North Glenwood, Springfield ILNovember 2025
“I owned a rental on Maywood Drive for six years. Fine until the tenant stopped paying and started subletting to three other people I had never approved. Code enforcement showed up twice. USA Home Buyers bought it with the tenants still inside. I didn't have to do a single eviction filing. Nine days from first call to closing.”
Christine D.Grandview Drive area, Springfield ILAugust 2025
“I'm a state employee — when my position got transferred to Chicago, I had about six weeks to sort out my house on the south side of Springfield before I needed to be up there. I didn't have time for showings, inspections, or waiting on a buyer's mortgage. USA Home Buyers gave me a written offer within 24 hours and we closed in ten days.”

Quincy tenant-occupied seller questions

Can I sell my Quincy house while tenants are still living there?

Yes. You can sell with tenants in place. An ordinary sale generally leaves the existing lease in place, so tenants do not have to move simply because the house sells.

Does selling the house end the lease?

No. A sale by itself does not cancel an existing lease. The lease and occupancy still need to be accounted for in the sale and handoff.

How much notice is needed to end a month-to-month tenancy?

For an ordinary month-to-month tenancy, Illinois generally requires 30 days’ written notice. The lease or local rules can require more; see the notice section and official statute on this page.

What happens to the security deposit and prepaid rent?

Security deposits and prepaid rent need to be accounted for at closing. An ordinary sale does not automatically release the previous landlord from those obligations.

Do I need to repair or clean the house before asking about a sale?

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