Situations we help Tavares owners with

  • Code enforcement fines and liens. Tavares is an incorporated city and the county seat, and its Code Enforcement is part of the Tavares Police Department, reachable at (352) 742-6419. The City says it prefers voluntary compliance, but a violation that continues can go before a Special Master, who holds public hearings. The City states that fines can run up to $250 a day, or $500 a day for a repeat violation, and that fines are recorded in the Lake County public records as a lien on the property. State law (s. 162.09) sets those same caps, plus up to $5,000 for an irreparable violation; only cities and counties of 50,000 or more can adopt higher caps by ordinance. If a lien stays unpaid for three months, the local government can authorize foreclosure or a money judgment, though a code lien cannot be foreclosed on homestead property. We pay liens from the sale proceeds at closing.
  • Foreclosure. According to the Lake County Clerk of Court, foreclosure sales are held in person at the Lake County Courthouse in Tavares, 550 W. Main St., generally in the first-floor Jury Assembly Room, at 11:00 a.m. on weekdays when a sale is scheduled. The winning bidder must put down 5% right away, with the balance due that afternoon. Selling before the sale date can protect the equity you have left.
  • Behind on property taxes. Lake County tax deed sales are run by the Clerk of Court as online auctions at lake.realtaxdeed.com. The Clerk says sales generally take place on Tuesdays and begin at 11:15 a.m. Eastern. Bidders must register ahead of time and place a deposit the day before.
  • 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.
  • Storm and flood damage. Tavares sits on a strip of land between Lake Eustis and Lake Dora. In October 2025, heavy rain caused flash flooding in nearby Eustis and Mount Dora, and Lake County declared a local state of emergency. If a house has water damage, we buy it as it is, with no repairs from you.
  • 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.
