Non-Paying Tenants
If a problem tenant has turned your investment into a stressor, we'll buy the property occupied. You walk away with cash. We handle the rest.
A rental stops being an investment the moment it costs more than it earns. Most owners who call us have already tried payment plans and patience, and are now looking at months of lost rent plus a court process they don't have the time or stomach for. Selling occupied ends that math immediately.
We underwrite on condition and comparables, not on the rent roll, so a non-paying tenant doesn't sink the deal or the price the way it would with a financed buyer. After closing we deal with the tenancy ourselves — sometimes with a cash-for-keys agreement, sometimes through the courts, always as the new owner.
What you can expect from us
- We buy occupied with the tenant in place.
- We don't ask you to start eviction first.
- Cash close — no financing falling through over a rent roll.
- We take over as the owner and handle what comes next.
- Multi-family and single-family rentals both welcome.
How this works where you live
Leases, ledgers, notices, and security-deposit records transfer with the property and make everything smoother. Bring what you have; we'll work with what you don't.
DC requires a TOPA offer of sale to tenants in many single-family and multi-unit transfers, which adds a defined notice period to the timeline. We're used to running it.
Maryland's failure-to-pay-rent cases run through District Court; Virginia requires proper notice before an unlawful detainer. Security deposits must be accounted for at transfer in both.
