Washington leases, sale notice, possession, and security deposits
When you sell to us, the lease carries over to us, so you can sell with tenants still living there. Ending a tenancy for a sale is a separate choice.
RCW 59.18.650(2)(e) — sale-related termination ground
For residential tenancies covered by Washington's Residential Landlord-Tenant Act, a landlord can use the sale of a single-family residence as a reason to end a tenancy only with at least 90 days' advance written notice and a genuine effort to sell after the tenant vacates. The statute's other conditions and exceptions apply.
If you want the house vacant, we can talk through the lease and your plans before anyone discusses move-out timing.
RCW 59.18.060(1) — housing-code duties during a tenancy
If the home remains rented, the landlord's duty to comply with applicable housing codes continues while the tenancy is in effect.
Security-deposit handoff
We'll talk with you about the deposit amount, who holds it, and the handoff details for the sale. We can put the agreed handoff in the written terms.

Spokane tenant-occupied house questions
Can I sell my Spokane house while tenants are still living there?
Yes. We buy houses with tenants in place in Spokane and Spokane County, and the lease carries over to us. You don't have to evict before you talk with us.
Does selling the house end the lease or set a move-out date?
No. When you sell to us, the lease carries over to us and the tenants can remain under its terms. If you want to end a covered residential tenancy to sell a single-family home, Washington requires at least 90 days’ advance written notice, a genuine effort to sell after the tenant leaves, and the statute’s other conditions.
What happens to the security deposit when I sell?
We’ll talk through the deposit amount, who holds it, and the handoff details for the sale. We can put the agreed handoff in the written terms.
