How it works

Tired landlord sale walkthrough

We take on the tenant, the repairs, and everything that comes with it.

Tired landlord FAQ

Common questions

Can you buy my rental with tenants still in it?

Yes. We buy occupied rentals. You do not have to evict anyone before selling.

What if my tenants are not paying rent?

One of the most common reasons landlords call us. Non-paying tenants do not stop a sale to us. We factor it into the offer.

Do I have to notify my tenants that I am selling?

California has specific tenant-notice requirements depending on lease type, occupancy length, and local ordinances (LA City, Long Beach, Oakland, etc). We help you stay compliant.

What if my rental has deferred maintenance or code issues?

No problem. We buy in any condition.

How is the sale price determined for a rental?

We look at condition, current rents, tenant situation, and comparable sales. We give you a straight number.

Will I pay capital gains tax on the sale?

Possibly, depending on your cost basis and how long you have owned it. A 1031 exchange may let you defer taxes if you reinvest. Talk to a CPA — we can suggest one.

Can I sell if there is an active lease?

Yes. Active leases transfer to the new owner under California law. Tenants keep their lease terms; only the payee changes.

How fast can we close on a rental?

As few as 7 to 14 days once we have a contract and title is clear.
