Yes. BuyHousesInCash buys condemned and uninhabitable properties in Hillsborough County, Florida routinely. Condemnation reduces our offer compared to a habitable home, but it doesn't stop the deal. We're investors, not occupants — we buy with plans to either rehab to code or, in extreme cases, demolish and rebuild. Your condemnation order becomes our problem.
Accrued code enforcement fines in Hillsborough County are typically liens against the property. They get paid off at closing from sale proceeds, just like a mortgage or tax lien.

No. BuyHousesInCash buys Hillsborough County properties strictly as-is. Whatever the city is demanding — roof replacement, foundation work, structural repairs, lead paint abatement, electrical updates — becomes our responsibility after closing. You walk away with cash and no obligation. This is the entire point of selling to a cash investor versus going through traditional channels.
Yes, but timing matters. Florida demolition orders typically allow 30-90 days before the city begins demolition proceedings. If we close before the demolition, the property and order transfer to us.

Traditional buyers walk away when inspection reports show major issues; that's why properties with severe problems sit on the market in Hillsborough County for 6+ months.
