Tired landlord
At some point the rent stops being worth the 10 p.m. phone calls. One more turnover, one more repair, one more late check, and you are ready to be finished. You can sell without evicting anyone or fixing anything first.
- Takes about 2 minutes
- No obligation to sell
What this situation usually means
A rental that has stopped paying for itself is awkward to sell the usual way. Tenants have rights and routines, so showings are hard to schedule, and years of patched repairs show up quickly in an inspection.
Emptying the house first means lost rent and a rehab. A direct sale takes the house as it is, tenants included, and the leases carry over to the new owner.
Tenants keep their rights under their lease, and that does not change when the owner does.
How Covent helps
We buy with tenants in place, so you do not have to end a lease or ask anyone to move.
We buy as-is, so deferred maintenance is ours after closing.
Our estimate reflects the rent, the lease terms, and the condition you actually have.
One closing in 14 to 60 days of a signed contract, and you are out of the landlord business.
What we need to look at
- The address, and how many units.
- Who lives there, what they pay, and when each lease ends.
- The condition, and any open repair requests or code notices.

Common questions
Yes. We take the property subject to the leases, and tenants stay as long as their lease says.
They are accounted for at closing and transferred or credited as the law and the contract require. Your attorney or the title company can walk you through it.
It can affect the number, but it does not stop us from looking. Share what you know, including any eviction filings.
You know them best, so the choice is yours. We will coordinate access respectfully and give notice as the lease requires.
