Tired landlord in San Marcos? Non-paying tenant? Squatters in your California rental? BuyHousesInCash buys occupied properties — you don't have to evict first. We close, the tenant becomes our problem, you cash out and never deal with them again.
Bad tenants in San Marcos, California can drain your savings and your sanity. California landlord-tenant law sets specific procedures for eviction that can take weeks or months even when tenants violate lease terms.

We take the property as-is and handle the tenant situation post-closing.
