Can I sell a house with code violations in Vallejo, CA?
The fines don't stop while you think about it. They pile up, they add new ones, and every month takes another bite out of what the property is worth to you. We can buy it quickly, violations and all, so you stop the bleeding and keep your equity.

What can affect closing in California?
California’s State Housing Law lets a local enforcement agency order a substandard building repaired or demolished, generally after 30 days’ notice. The agency may give less time when there is an immediate threat to health and safety. If the owner does not act within the time allowed, the agency may vacate, repair, or demolish the building. See California Health and Safety Code section 17980.
The agency records notice of a pending action with the county recorder, so it appears in the property’s title records. See California Health and Safety Code section 17985.
A city can recover abatement costs by recording a nuisance-abatement lien with the force of a judgment lien, or by adding the cost to the property-tax bill as a special assessment. Those options are described in California Government Code section 38773.1 and section 38773.5.
Existing orders, liens, and any city approval requirements need to be addressed as part of the sale; an as-is agreement does not erase them. Send us the notices so the buyer and closing professional can work through repairs, deadlines, and closing requirements. When you sell to us, we're the buyer, so the repairs become our job.
