Arkansas permits nonjudicial sales under its Statutory Foreclosure Act. Before that sale, the trustee or lender must record the required notice of default, provide and publish the required notices, and wait through the statutory minimum notice period. A judicial foreclosure follows a court case and can carry a post-sale redemption right unless it was validly waived. Check the docket, deed of trust, notices, and any waiver to identify which process applies.

An Arkansas personal representative may sell estate real property before the estate closes when the will grants a power of sale. Without that authority, the representative generally must ask the probate court for an order authorizing the sale. The will, appointment, court order, and title determine who may sign and what steps remain. If you need an estate attorney, we can help you find one.

Yes. A sale by itself does not make a rented home vacant or cancel the tenant’s lease. The lease and applicable Arkansas landlord-tenant law govern possession, notices, rent, and deposits. Share the leases, amendments, deposit records, and notices before setting a move-out or closing date; a local tenant protection or court order may add requirements.

Yes, we can review a house with a code notice or repair order as-is. Send the notice, inspection report, permit history, fine, and any recorded lien. A sale or repair agreement does not itself release a local order, fine, lien, permit requirement, or occupancy restriction; the issuing city or county and title record determine what remains. When you sell to us, we’re the buyer, so the repairs become our job.

No. You can start with the property address, what you know about its condition and occupancy, and your timing. A deed, estate appointment, lease, tax notice, payoff statement, lien notice, or court paper may help answer the next question, but you can call before you have everything gathered.
