What we do

We buy houses with tenants in place. We can talk through who lives there, what the lease says, how access works, the property's condition, and what you want to happen next.

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

Lease timing, a tenant who limits access, needed repairs, or uncertainty about the deposit? Tell us what is going on. We can discuss the house and tenancy together; you do not have to solve every issue before calling.

What happens next

Start with the house and the tenancy. We discuss the details, put the offer and terms in writing, and use a title company for closing.

  1. 1. Tell us about the house and the lease

    Tell us what you know about the St. Augustine or St. Johns County house, who lives there, the lease, and how access works. You can call with what you know; you do not need to make the house vacant first.

  2. 2. We discuss the property and written offer

    We talk through the house as it stands, the occupancy, access, and what you want the sale to accomplish. We give written cash offers in 24 hours. You can review the proposed price and terms before you commit.

  3. 3. The title company reviews the closing details

    We can talk through the lease, occupancy, and deposit records with you so the closing documents identify the funds being transferred.

Local rental and code resources

The City of St. Augustine and St. Johns County have separate building and short-term-rental resources. Not sure which office serves the property? Call us — we'll sort it out with you.

Florida leases, possession, and security deposits

A sale does not by itself end the lease or set a tenant's move-out date. The house can still be sold with the tenant in place.

When rental property is sold or transferred, Florida law requires the security deposits and advance rents, earned interest, and an accurate tenant accounting to be transferred to the new owner or rental agent. We can talk through those funds with you as part of the sale.

Read Florida Statutes §83.49(7) on transferring deposits and advance rent.
