What we do with a tenant-occupied house
We talk through the house and tenancy together: who lives there, what the lease says, how access works, and what repairs or timing concerns you have. You can start the sale conversation without first making the house vacant.
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.
If a tenant move may work better for everyone, we can discuss whether a cash-for-keys arrangement fits the situation. The move-out terms still need to be agreed with the tenants.

Ohio leases, notice, possession, and security deposits
A sale does not by itself cancel a lease. The lease typically stays with the house and, if we buy it, we become the landlord. Tenants do not have to move out before closing just because the property is sold.
If you want the house empty
Ohio Revised Code §5321.17 sets the written-notice timing for periodic tenancies: at least 30 days before the next rent due date for month-to-month, or 7 days for week-to-week. Those rules concern ending the tenancy; a sale with tenants in place is a separate option. Check the lease and actual dates before relying on a notice date. Read Ohio Revised Code §5321.17.
Security deposits at closing
Security deposits typically transfer to us at closing. We discuss the deposit amount and handoff as part of the sale.
