Selling a House with a Problem Tenant

Selling a house with a problem tenant can be challenging, but it is not impossible. Here are a few steps that you can take to make the process easier:

  1. Talk to the tenant: Try to understand the problem and see if there is a way to resolve it.
  2. Consult with a lawyer: It is important to understand your legal rights and responsibilities as a landlord, and a lawyer can advise you on how to proceed.
  3. Give notice: If the problem cannot be resolved, you may need to give the tenant notice to vacate the property. This will depend on the laws in your state and the terms of the lease.
  4. Evict the tenant: If the tenant does not vacate the property after receiving notice, you may need to go through the eviction process.
  5. Disclose the issue to potential buyers: Be transparent about the problem tenant and provide any relevant documentation, such as eviction notices or police reports.
  6. Offer incentives to the tenant: You can offer incentives to the tenant to move out before the sale, such as a monetary compensation or help with finding a new place to live.

Frequently asked questions

What is an all-cash offer?

An all-cash deal enables us to buy your home without financing. To close, we typically transfer funds electronically or with a cashier’s check.

How are you able to close so much faster than a traditional home sale?

Because a lender isn’t involved, we’re able to keep closing timelines brief. Once we’re under contract, the sale can close in as fast as a week — just enough time for the title and escrow companies to clear any liens, etc. 

How do you determine the price to offer on my house?

We look at the location of the property, the current condition, and values of comparable houses sold in the area recently.

Is there any obligation when I submit my info?

There is absolutely no obligation for you. Once you tell us a bit about your property and situation, we’ll make you an all-cash offer that’s fair for you and fair for us. From there, it’s 100% your decision on whether or not you’d like to sell your house to us.

Will you be listing my house on the MLS or actually buying it?

Great question. We are professional home buyers that can purchase homes in Washington for cash that meet our purchasing criteria. We also own a traditional real estate brokerage with which we can list your property on the MLS. Upon meeting, we can present you with the best options for your individual situation.

Can you also list my home on the Multiple Listing Service or MLS?

Because we also own a traditional real estate brokerage, we can list your property on the MLS. Top local real estate agent, Eli Hale has expertly listed and sold many homes.
