Sell your rental property with tenants in place
Tired landlord? We buy houses, duplexes, triplexes and small multi-unit buildings across the GTA with tenants in place — including tenants who are behind on rent.
Selling a tenanted property the traditional way is complicated
Listing a rental on the open market usually means asking tenants to allow showings, dealing with a home that may not show well, and attracting mainly buyers who want vacant possession. Under Ontario’s Residential Tenancies Act, a lease doesn’t end just because a property is sold, and ending a tenancy for a buyer’s own use requires the proper notice (an N12), compensation to the tenant and — if the tenant doesn’t leave — a hearing at the Landlord and Tenant Board.
Board wait times, rent arrears and property damage can turn a planned sale into a long, costly process. And every month you wait is another month of mortgage, taxes, insurance and maintenance.
Fair House Buyers buys tenanted properties as-is, with leases in place. We’re comfortable with below-market rents, tenants in arrears, unregistered basement units and properties that need work. You don’t need to serve notices, arrange showings or make repairs — just choose a closing date.
