Selling During an Active Eviction Filing

Understanding Active Eviction Filing

If you have filed for eviction against a tenant, you may be wondering whether you can sell the property while the eviction is pending. The answer is generally yes — a pending eviction does not prevent you from selling the property. However, traditional buyers may be reluctant to purchase a property with an active eviction, and the process can be complicated by the tenant's rights during the eviction proceedings.

Your Options

Landlords with an active eviction filing have several options. You can wait for the eviction to be completed and then sell the vacant property. You can sell the property to a cash buyer who is willing to take on the eviction process. You can negotiate a cash-for-keys agreement with the tenant to resolve the situation quickly. Or you can sell to a buyer who specializes in tenant-occupied and eviction-pending properties.

How Midwest Equity Advisors Can Help

We buy properties with active eviction filings. You don't need to wait for the eviction to be completed before selling to us. We take over the eviction process after closing, saving you the time and expense of completing the eviction yourself. This can be a significant relief for landlords who are ready to exit the rental business.

Why Choose a Cash Sale?

For homeowners dealing with difficult situations, a cash sale often provides the fastest and most certain path forward. Unlike a traditional listing, a cash sale doesn't require repairs, doesn't involve agent commissions, and doesn't depend on a buyer securing financing. You get a straightforward offer and can close on your timeline — often in as little as seven days.
