Situations we help Lake Butler owners with

  • Code enforcement fines and liens. Lake Butler is an incorporated city and the Union County seat, so City code enforcement applies. At its November 19, 2024 meeting, the City Commission approved an agreement with Gapske Law Firm P.A. to serve as special magistrate for code enforcement proceedings, and the minutes describe the magistrate as the person who handles code violations that property owners do not resolve. The City lists its code enforcement phone as (386) 496-3401, and City Hall is at 200 Southwest 1st Street. The pages we could read give no hearing schedule and no dollar fine amounts. 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. Lake Butler’s 2020 census population was 1,979, well under that threshold. 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. In Union County, foreclosure sales are run by the Clerk of the Circuit Court, 55 West Main Street, Room 103, Lake Butler, (386) 496-3711. Ask the Clerk for the current sale format, start time and deposit rules before you plan around a sale date. Selling before the sale date can protect the equity you have left.
  • Behind on property taxes. Union County tax deed sales are also run through the Clerk of the Circuit Court at (386) 496-3711. A tax deed sale can wipe out your ownership, so selling first can protect your equity.
  • 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.

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.
