What we buy with code violations
We can buy a Saginaw house with code notices, unsafe conditions, unfinished work, or repairs still needed. You do not have to repair, clean, or empty it before selling to us. Share the notice, the work named in it, and any deadline so we can discuss the property and a written offer. The offer gives you another option to compare while the notice and its requirements remain in view.
What can affect closing
Michigan law provides a process for dangerous buildings. A proceeding can lead to an order to demolish a building, make it safe, or maintain it. If the owner does not comply, the municipality can pursue the work and repayment; unpaid costs can become a property lien only after required notice and recording steps. An as-is agreement does not erase an existing order, court case, deadline, or seller obligation before closing. Read the Michigan dangerous-building law and its notice, cost-recovery, and lien provisions.
When you sell to us, we're the buyer, so the repairs become our job.
