The Gilchrist County market right now

Selling with code violations or liens in Gilchrist County
Under Florida law, a recorded code enforcement fine becomes a lien on the property and on any other real estate the owner holds, and it has to be paid or settled before a normal sale closes (Fla. Stat. 162.09). If your Gilchrist County property has a code case or lien, we get the payoff and pay it at closing.
Facing foreclosure in Gilchrist County
The Gilchrist Clerk now holds foreclosure sales online at gilchrist.realforeclose.com, run by Clerk of the Circuit Court and Comptroller Todd Newton. The sale is set 20 to 35 days after final judgment (Fla. Stat. 45.031). We can close before it.
Inherited a house in Gilchrist County
Gilchrist is part of the 8th Judicial Circuit with Alachua, Baker, Bradford, Levy and Union. Summary administration is usually available for estates of $150,000 or less after exempt property, or when the owner died more than two years ago (Fla. Stat. 735.201).
Springs and septic rules
Gilchrist’s northern edge is the Santa Fe River spring belt, home to Ginnie Springs and Gilchrist Blue Springs, which became a state park in 2017. The Santa Fe is an Outstanding Florida Waterway. Inside the basin management plan for an Outstanding Florida Spring, a lot of an acre or less without sewer can only get an enhanced nutrient-reducing septic system (Fla. Stat. 373.811), which matters for any rehab or teardown near the river. We price it in and buy as-is.
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.
