What we do
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.
Bring us the problem
Is it hard to coordinate access, or do repairs need attention? Tell us what is happening with the house and tenancy. Not sure where to start? Call us — we'll sort it out with you: 888-274-5006.
What happens next
1. We discuss the lease, occupancy, and house
We talk through who lives there, what the lease says, how access works, the house's condition, and what you hope will happen with possession.
2. We put the offer and terms in writing
We give written cash offers in 24 hours.
You get a written offer and written terms before you commit, and we close through a title company.
3. We go through the tenancy details before closing
We talk through how the lease, security-deposit balance, rent recipient, and possession fit into the sale. Those details are part of the closing documents.

South Dakota lease and security-deposit rules
You can sell while tenants are still in the house. A sale does not by itself end a stated lease; the lease and South Dakota's tenancy rules cover possession and notice. If the rental term is not specified, a statutory renewal or termination-notice rule may apply. See South Dakota Codified Laws §§ 43-32-15 and 43-32-17.
For a residential security deposit, the landlord must return the deposit or give written reasons for withholding within 21 days after the tenancy ends and the tenant provides a mailing address or delivery instructions. See South Dakota Codified Laws § 43-32-24.
