The Jefferson County market right now
Across all home types, Jefferson County’s median sale price for the three months ending July 2026, the latest Redfin has published, was $408,303, and the median home took 114 days to sell. With only about 10 sales a month and nearly four months on market, a house that needs work has very few retail buyers.
Selling with code violations or liens in Jefferson County
Jefferson County handles code enforcement through its Permits, Inspections & Code department. Under Florida law, a recorded 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). We get the payoff and pay it at closing.
Facing foreclosure in Jefferson County
Florida forecloses through the courts. Once a judge enters final judgment, the sale is set 20 to 35 days later (Fla. Stat. 45.031), run by the office of Clerk of Court and Comptroller Cecil “Trey” Hightower in Monticello. Until the sale happens, you can still sell, and we can close in days.
Inherited a house in Jefferson County
Jefferson is part of the 2nd Judicial Circuit with Leon, Franklin, Gadsden, Liberty and Wakulla. 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).
Storm repairs after Idalia
After Hurricane Idalia came ashore in neighboring Taylor County on Aug. 30, 2023, Jefferson was one of the Florida counties made eligible for FEMA individual assistance and SBA home disaster loans. If a house had FEMA- or SBA-funded repairs, or an insurance claim that’s still open, that has to be disclosed and sorted out at closing. We handle it 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.
