What we do
We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us.
We buy houses in Wichita and Sedgwick County, including houses with tenants in place. 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. Tell us about the property and tenancy.
If helping the tenants move would work better for everyone, cash-for-keys is one option to discuss. Tell us what is happening; you do not have to decide on a move-out plan before calling.
Bring us the problem
Tell us about the lease, who is living in the house, access limits, repairs, rent, or a tenant conversation that has stalled. Call before you decide what to do next; we can talk about the property as it stands and the situation you are dealing with.

Local help for a Wichita rental
For a Wichita or Sedgwick County property, these county and court links can help with recorded land documents or an existing court matter. A deed record is separate from a lease or deposit question.

Kansas leases, notice, possession, and security deposits
In an ordinary sale, the existing lease stays in place and the buyer becomes the landlord; the sale itself does not require the tenant to move. If you want to end a month-to-month tenancy, Kansas generally requires at least 30 days’ written notice. The lease and reason for ending the tenancy can affect what applies. K.S.A. 58-2554 · K.S.A. 58-2570
Kansas law sets no deadline for handing a security deposit to the buyer. After a good-faith sale and written notice to the tenant, you are generally released from later lease obligations but remain responsible for any deposit the tenant is owed. K.S.A. 58-2551
Whoever owns the property when the tenancy ends must return the deposit balance within 14 days after figuring any deductions, and no more than 30 days after the tenancy ends, the tenant moves out, and asks for it. Keep owner and manager contact information given to tenants current. Give the buyer the leases, deposit records, and tenant notices so the handoff can account for the existing tenancy. K.S.A. 58-2550 · K.S.A. 58-2551

Wichita tenant-occupied questions
Can I sell my Wichita house while tenants are still living there?
Yes. In an ordinary sale, the existing lease stays in place and the buyer becomes the landlord; the sale itself does not require the tenant to move. Tell us about the lease and occupancy so we can discuss the sale with the tenancy in view.
Do I have to evict before I call?
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. Tell us about the property and tenancy.
How much notice does a month-to-month tenant get?
Kansas generally requires at least 30 days’ written notice to end a month-to-month tenancy. The lease and the reason for ending the tenancy can affect what applies.
What happens to the security deposit when I sell?
Kansas law sets no deadline for handing the deposit to the buyer. After a good-faith sale and written notice to the tenant, you are generally released from later lease obligations but remain responsible for any deposit the tenant is owed. Keep the deposit records and tenant notices with the lease for the sale discussion.
What should I have ready before I call?
Nothing has to be perfect. Start with the Wichita address and what you know about the lease, who lives there, access, repairs, rent, deposits, notices, and timing. You can call before gathering every record.
