Sell your tenant-occupied Sarasota house for cash — we buy direct

We actually like tenant-occupied property — instant cash flow from day one, no vacancy or marketing period. We buy tenant-occupied houses as-is, which means you don't need to displace the tenant or wait for the lease to end before closing.

Step 1 of 4

Lockwood Home Buyers makes cash offers directly to homeowners — no fees, no commissions, and no obligation to accept. We are not a real-estate agent or broker; we buy houses for cash.

How a Florida closing works

Florida closings are typically handled by a title agent or closing attorney depending on the county; either way a cash sale commonly closes in two to three weeks.

Florida charges documentary stamp tax on the deed — $0.70 per $100 of the sale price in most counties (Miami-Dade uses a slightly different rate structure). It is customarily a seller-side cost.
