What we buy
We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us. You can tell us what the notice lists; you do not need to start repairs or clear out the house to ask about selling it.
What can affect closing
Tennessee cities may adopt rules for buildings that are unfit for people to live in or use. Under Tenn. Code Ann. § 13-21-103, after notice and a hearing, a city can order repairs or close a building. If repairs cannot be made at a reasonable cost, the city can order the building torn down. If an owner does not comply, the city can do the work itself and charge the cost to the owner. That cost becomes a lien collected with property taxes; if unpaid, it receives the same penalties and interest as late property taxes. Selling the house does not make the lien go away. Local rules may also allow charges for city work such as mowing an overgrown lot.
When you sell to us, we're the buyer, so the repairs become our job.
An existing order, court case, lien, or deadline is not automatically canceled by a sale. We can talk through the notice and the property with you.
