Situations we help Lake Hamilton owners with

  • Code enforcement fines and liens. Lake Hamilton is an incorporated town in Polk County, so Town code enforcement applies. The Town’s code enforcement page says violations go to a Special Magistrate, an attorney under contract with the Town, who can impose fines of up to $250 a day, or up to $500 a day for a repeated violation, which matches state law. Citations go to county court with a civil penalty of up to $500. Special Magistrate hearings are held at 10:00 a.m. on the second Tuesday of each month at Town Hall, 100 Smith Ave. The Town lists its code enforcement office at (863) 439-1910. 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 or counties of 50,000 or more can adopt higher caps by ordinance. Lake Hamilton’s 2020 census population was 1,537, well under that threshold. A recorded fine order becomes a lien, and after three months unpaid the Town 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 Polk County, the Clerk of Court says all foreclosure sales are conducted online through RealAuction at polk.realforeclose.com. A Clerk sale notice (for a February 2026 sale) says bidding opens at 10:00 a.m. Eastern and the sale is for cash. Bidders register with Real Auction before the sale; the Clerk’s page directs bidders to the Civil Law Department at (863) 534-4000 for deposit and payment questions. Selling before the sale date can protect the equity you have left.
  • Behind on property taxes. Polk County tax deed sales are held online by the Clerk of the Circuit Court on the third Thursday of each month, starting at 9:30 a.m. (the previous day if that Thursday is a holiday). Bidders register online for a bidder number and fund their account before bidding; the Clerk’s page says the non-refundable deposit is 5% of the final bid or $200, whichever is greater, deducted right after each sale. 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.
