Code Enforcement Keeps Sending Letters? Sell the House Exactly As It Sits.

Open violations scare off every buyer who needs a bank — banks won't lend on them. We don't use bank financing, so we buy it exactly as it sits: violations open, fines unpaid, nothing fixed. In many cases the fines get resolved at closing out of the proceeds.

What's the main situation?

Open Violations Lock Most Sellers Into a Corner

The standard playbook — fix it, list it, finance it — breaks down when the county is involved.

Financing wall

Banks won't lend on open violations

FHA, VA, and conventional lenders require the property to clear minimum standards, and open code violations fail that test. Every buyer who needs a mortgage is eliminated before the first showing — which is most of the market.

Fines clock

Fines and liens grow while the house sits

Code enforcement fines accrue while you decide — some daily. They can often be paid at closing out of the proceeds rather than out of pocket, but the longer you wait, the bigger the number that comes off your side of the table.

Listing dead-end

Most agents won't take it

An agent can't sell what a lender won't finance, so most won't list a house with open violations — and the ones that try watch it sit and expire. A direct sale to a buyer using their own funds bypasses the whole problem.

Most Investors Only Give One Option. We Give Three.

Because every situation is different. Sometimes you need speed, sometimes you need the most money.

Straight Answers — No Runaround

The questions we hear most from owners with open violations.

In most cases, yes. We buy properties as-is regardless of municipal status. Call 904-850-8900.
Not necessarily. In many cases fines can be paid from the sale proceeds at closing rather than out of pocket ahead of time.
Most won't, because it's nearly impossible to get financing on a property with open violations. A direct sale to us bypasses that.
We look at value once the violations are resolved, factor in cost and time, and back into a number. We show you the math.
Duval, St. Johns, Nassau, Clay, Putnam, and surrounding Northeast Florida.
None. Zero obligation.

⚠️ Code fines keep accruing while you decide — the lien only grows.
