What We DON'T Require:
Real Stories from Code Violation Sales
James T.
Foundation & Electrical Issues
“The city gave me 30 days to fix $40,000 worth of foundation and electrical problems. I couldn't afford it. Gabe bought my house as-is in 10 days. The daily fines stopped, and I walked away with cash instead of bankruptcy.”
Sandra R.
Unpermitted Addition
“Previous owner built an unpermitted mother-in-law suite. City wanted it torn down or brought to code for $25,000. Gabe's team bought it anyway and handled everything after closing.”
Miguel V.
Multiple Violations
“Inherited a property with 8 code violations and $15,000 in fines already. No realtor would list it. Gabe made a fair cash offer and closed in a week. Problem solved!”
Patricia K.
Condemned Property
“My rental was condemned after tenants destroyed it. Estimated $75,000 to make habitable again. Gabe bought it for cash, and I avoided bankruptcy and further legal issues.”
Questions About Selling with Code Violations
Can I really sell a house with open code violations?
Yes! We specialize in buying properties with active code violations. Unlike traditional buyers who require all violations to be resolved, we purchase as-is and handle the violations ourselves after closing.
What if my house has been condemned?
We buy condemned properties too. As long as you still own the property and have the right to sell, we can make you a cash offer. We have experience renovating condemned houses back to livable condition.
Do I need to get permits for unpermitted work before selling?
No, you don't need to obtain permits or bring unpermitted work up to code. We factor these issues into our offer and handle all permit and compliance matters after we purchase the property.
Will you really pay cash for a house needing major repairs?
Absolutely. We're professional home buyers with contractors and resources to handle any level of repairs. The worse the condition, the more we can help you avoid costly repairs and ongoing fines.
How is your offer calculated with so many problems?
We consider the property's after-repair value, cost of violations/repairs, and provide a fair cash offer. While it may be less than a fully renovated home would sell for, you save tens of thousands in repair costs and months of hassle.
