Selling for cash in Tallahassee: questions
Can I sell my Tallahassee rental to a cash buyer while students are still living there?
Yes. The buyer takes over the lease and the security deposits at closing. Give the tenants proper notice before any showings, as the lease requires.
How fast can I sell my house for cash in Tallahassee?
Florida sales close through a title company or a real estate attorney, which pays off the mortgage and any tax certificates. Once you accept an offer, most Leon County cash sales close in one to three weeks — sooner if there's no estate or lien paperwork to clear, or later on a date you choose.
