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.

Local and Wisconsin rental resources
Monroe County’s Register of Deeds is the county office identified for real-estate records. For lease and tenant questions, Wisconsin DATCP’s landlord–tenant guide includes a section on a change of ownership.
Wisconsin DATCP Landlord–Tenant Guide
The Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection guide, published in March 2026, discusses “Change of Ownership” on printed page 12.
Wisconsin leases, notice, possession, and security deposits
You can sell a rental with tenants in it. An ordinary sale generally leaves the lease in place, and the new owner takes over the landlord’s obligations under it. Tenants do not have to leave just because the house sells.
Wis. Stat. § 704.09 — lease after sale
The sale itself does not cancel the lease. The buyer takes the property subject to the existing lease, and the tenant’s rights continue under its terms. A sale by itself is not a move-out date.
Wis. Stat. § 704.19 — month-to-month notice
If you want to end an ordinary month-to-month tenancy, the usual rule is written notice at least 28 days before the end of the rental period. The lease and the reason for ending it can change what is required, so 28 days is not a universal deadline for every tenancy.
Possession and the sale
Selling the house does not by itself require a tenant to leave or give you vacant possession. If a vacant handoff is part of your plan, the lease and the reason for ending the tenancy still matter.
Rent and security deposits at closing
Keep the lease, rent information, and security-deposit balance together. Account for them when arranging the closing; the sale itself does not answer how the balance is handled for this transaction.

What sellers say about USA Home Buyers
Here's what sellers have said about working with us.
“Pierce Manufacturing transferred me to their Bradenton, Florida facility. I had eight weeks to get to Florida. My house on the Westside needed a few updates but I wasn't going to spend the summer on that. USA Home Buyers gave me a number in twenty-four hours. I said yes and closed in eleven days. I made it to Bradenton two weeks early.”
“After the plant I worked at outside Oshkosh restructured and cut my position, I was behind on payments within three months. The lender filed in Winnebago County Circuit Court. By that point I had a judgment date looming. USA Home Buyers had a written offer in twenty-four hours and we closed in thirteen days. The judgment was dismissed.”
“The Winnebago County divorce required the house sold before settlement could be finalized. We'd lived in Menominee Park for sixteen years — good memories, but we needed to move on. One written offer from USA Home Buyers, both signed it in the same afternoon, closed in fourteen days.”
