Squatters in your property
Someone is living in a property you own and they have no lease and no right to be there. It is one of the most frustrating positions a property owner can be in, because you cannot simply remove them yourself.
- We buy occupied properties, squatters included
- You do not have to clear the property first
- Common with vacant, inherited and long-held properties
Ask about an occupied property
Free, no obligation, and we answer fast.
Why this is so hard to fix yourself
You cannot change the locks, cut the utilities, or physically remove someone, even when they clearly have no right to be there. Doing so can expose you to liability. The lawful route runs through the courts, and once someone has established occupancy the process can look a great deal like an eviction — which means months.
Meanwhile you carry the taxes and insurance, the property deteriorates, and you may be picking up code violations for a building you cannot get into.
How this usually happens
Almost always to a property that sat empty: an inherited house nobody has visited, a rental between tenants, a property owned by someone living in another state, or one tied up in a long estate.
What we do
We buy the property occupied. You are not required to clear it, secure it, or win anything in court first. We take the property in whatever state it is in, along with the situation inside it, and we handle what comes next.
If you also have unpaid taxes or code violations stacked on the same property, that is fine — see liens and title issues. It is common for these to arrive together.

How selling to us works
Tell us about the house
Two minutes on the form or one phone call. Address, rough condition, and what is going on. You do not need to have anything cleaned up or figured out first.
We check the numbers
We pull the comparable sales, the tax and lien position, and whatever else is on record for the property. Usually same day, always within one business day.
You get a real cash offer
A written, no-obligation number with the math behind it, so you can see how we got there. No fee to hear it and no pressure to take it.
You pick the closing date
Two weeks, two months, or after the holidays. We settle at a title company, you get certified funds, and you leave whatever you do not want behind.
Other situations we handle
Facing foreclosure
Stop the clock. We can close before the sheriff sale date and settle what you owe.
Inherited a property
A house you did not ask for, in a city you may not live in. We handle it end to end.
Administering an estate
Executor duties, probate, and a house to deal with while you are still grieving.
Liens, judgments & title problems
Tax liens, water bills, old mortgages, clouded title. We own a title company.
House needs work
Roof, water damage, full gut, hoarder cleanout. We buy it exactly as it stands.
Problem tenants
Not paying, will not leave, trashing the place. Sell it with them still in it.
Moving to senior care
Free up the equity to pay for care, on a timeline that fits the move-in date.
Out-of-state owner
You do not have to fly in. Everything can be handled remotely and notarized where you are.
Relocating for work
A start date in another state and a house that has not sold yet.
