Situations we help Sarasota owners with

  • Code enforcement fines and liens. The City of Sarasota’s Code Compliance Division is at 1565 First Street, Annex Building, 2nd floor, and takes calls at (941) 263-6417 on weekdays. Cases are heard by a Special Magistrate, a local attorney appointed by the City Commission, on Thursdays at the City Hall Annex. The city says the Special Magistrate may levy fines and costs, and Code Compliance can provide a final payoff amount or help you make a code lien payment online. State law (s. 162.09) caps fines at $250 a day for a first violation, $500 a day for a repeat and $5,000 for an irreparable violation, and only cities of 50,000 or more can adopt higher caps by ordinance. A recorded fine order becomes a lien, and after three months unpaid the city can pursue foreclosure or a money judgment, though a lien cannot be foreclosed on homestead property. We pay liens from the sale proceeds at closing.
  • Foreclosure. Sarasota County foreclosure sales are held online, not on the courthouse steps, through the Clerk’s RealForeclose auction site. The Clerk notes sales can be canceled or postponed. Selling before the sale date can protect the equity you have left.
  • Behind on property taxes. Sarasota County tax deed sales are also held online, run by the Clerk, on weekdays with a 9:00 a.m. start. Bidders must have funds on deposit before bidding. Selling before a tax deed sale can protect the equity you have left.
  • HOA assessments and violations. If your home is in an association, Florida law (s. 720.3085) lets an association with the right in its governing documents hold a lien for unpaid assessments. It must give 45 days’ written notice before recording it and can foreclose after a further 45-day notice. A new owner can be jointly liable with the prior owner for assessments owed before the transfer, so a sale needs to clear that balance. If the home is rented, the association can demand rent from the tenant until the debt is paid. We handle the payoff from the sale proceeds.
  • Inherited and probate homes. We can buy while probate is open and work with your attorney.
  • 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 Sarasota market and your cash offer

Redfin reports a median sale price of $524,900 in Sarasota for August 2026, up 4.9% from a year earlier, with homes taking a median of 79 days to sell, up 1 day from last year (Redfin, data through August 2026, retrieved Oct 30, 2026). A cash sale skips the repairs, inspections, appraisal and financing delays. Your offer is based on what similar Sarasota 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.
