What we buy
We buy the house with its violations. We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us. Tell us what the notice says and what repairs it lists; you don't have to start the work or clean out the house before asking about a sale.
What can affect closing
Florida law lets a local code-enforcement board impose continuing daily fines and repair costs. If a fine order is certified and recorded, it becomes a lien against the land with the violation and may also reach other property owned by the person who violated the code. Read Florida Statute section 162.09. An existing order or lien can still affect the sale; selling the house does not automatically clear it. We can talk through the notice and any permit, occupancy, inspection or transfer requirements that apply.
When you sell to us, we're the buyer, so the repairs become our job.

Local help with a code notice
The Villages community includes homes in Sumter and Marion Counties, as well as homes in Lady Lake and unincorporated Lake County, so local code offices vary. If your notice is from Sumter County, its Building Services and Code Enforcement pages cover permits, inspections, certificate requests and code complaints.
