Situations we help Sanford owners with

  • Code enforcement fines and liens. Sanford enforces its own code through the Code Enforcement Division of Development Services; call City Hall at (407) 688-5000 (Mon-Fri, 7:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m.). Cases that are not fixed go to a Special Magistrate, who hears them on the second Wednesday of each month at 9:00 a.m. Florida law lets a local board fine up to $250 a day for a first violation, up to $500 a day for a repeat violation, and up to $5,000 for an irreparable one (larger localities can adopt higher caps). A recorded fine order becomes a lien on the property, and after three months unpaid the city can pursue foreclosure or a money judgment, though not by foreclosing on homestead property. Sanford also runs a lien amnesty program, open for applications through December 31, 2030, that can cut a lien by the lesser of 50% or $7,500, plus a $250 application fee and $500 in added costs. We pay liens from the sale proceeds at closing.
  • Foreclosure. Seminole County foreclosure sales are held online at seminole.realforeclose.com. After a sale there is a 10-day objection period before the Clerk issues the certificate of title. Selling before the sale date can protect the equity you have left.
  • Behind on property taxes. Seminole County tax deed sales are run by the Clerk online at seminole.realtaxdeed.com. Every property sells “buyer beware,” with no guarantee of clear title. Selling first can keep you ahead of that process.
  • Inherited and probate homes. We can buy while probate is open and work with your attorney.
  • Flood and storm damage. Sanford sits on Lake Monroe. After Hurricane Ian in October 2022, floodwater from the lake cut off homes on Beacon Drive and reached downtown, where the pier was nearly submerged and some businesses were isolated. We buy storm-damaged and flood-damaged homes as-is.
  • Rentals and problem tenants. We buy tenant-occupied homes and homes with holdover occupants; you do not have to evict first.
  • Hoarder houses, fire damage, unpermitted work. We buy them as they are.

The Sanford market and your cash offer

Redfin reports a median sale price of $351,000 in Sanford for the three months ending August 2026, up 1.8% from a year earlier, with homes taking a median of 42 days to sell (Redfin, retrieved Oct 27, 2026). A cash sale skips the repairs, inspections, appraisal and financing delays. Your offer is based on what similar Sanford homes sell for after repairs, minus the actual repair cost. We walk you through the numbers.

What we buy and how it works

What we buy. All residential and commercial property: single-family homes, townhomes, condos, multifamily (duplexes, triplexes, fourplexes and apartment buildings), mobile homes on land you own (not in land-lease parks), vacant lots and land, and commercial property (retail, office, industrial and mixed-use), as-is, in any condition. That includes the hard ones: code violations and liens, foreclosure, probate and inherited property, hostile holdover occupants, hoarder houses, and sinkhole, storm or flood damage.

How it works. 1) Tell us about the property online or call (786) 753-8500. 2) We look at it with you, in person or by video, and make a written cash offer, usually within 24 hours. 3) You pick the closing date: as soon as 7 days, or later if you need time. We pay the standard seller closing costs, and you pay no commissions. We buy directly; in some sales we close alongside a partner investor, but you sign one contract with us and get one closing date either way.
