When a home has visible damage, safety issues, or city notices taped to the door, it’s easy to feel stuck. You may wonder: “Can I even sell this place?” The answer is: Yes, you can — and you don’t have to fix everything first. At H.O.P.E. Property Solutions, we specialize in helping homeowners like you find peace and freedom, even when your home has problems.
What Is a Code Violation?
A code violation means your home doesn’t meet your local government’s building, health, or safety standards. This could include:
- Faulty wiring or plumbing
- A leaking roof or structural damage
- Unsafe decks, steps, or railings
- Mold, infestation, or sanitation issues
- Unpermitted additions or renovations
Often, these violations result in fines, warnings, or even a red tag posted by city officials.
So, Can You Sell It?
Yes — you can sell a house with code violations. But not every buyer will want to take on the risk. Most traditional buyers, especially those using bank financing, will walk away once they see serious issues. That’s why working with a code violation house buyer like us makes all the difference.
At H.O.P.E. Property Solutions, we buy homes as-is — no repairs, no inspections, no judgment. We’re here to help you move forward, not make you feel stuck in stress or shame.
Why Selling to an Investor May Be the Best Option
- No Need to Fix Anything
Forget spending thousands of dollars to get your house “market-ready.” We buy houses in all conditions, including those with active code violations, fines, or city red tags. - Fast Closings
We can often close in as little as 7–14 days. That’s a huge blessing if the city is breathing down your neck or you just want to be done. - Discreet and Compassionate
We understand these situations are personal. Whether the home was inherited, damaged by tenants, or simply aged, we approach each deal with empathy, professionalism, and complete confidentiality. - We Handle the Paperwork
We’ll communicate with the city or county and work through the legal red tape so you don’t have to. You focus on your next chapter — we’ll take care of the details.

What About Fines and Liens?
If your house has outstanding fines or city liens, we can still work with you. In many cases, we’re able to negotiate the payoff or factor those costs into our offer, so you’re not left scrambling. Our goal is always to find a win-win solution that relieves pressure — not adds to it.
