Rented houses, empty houses, and the landlord who has had enough
Madison County rents out more of its housing than Tennessee does, and that changes who is selling. 38.0% of occupied homes here are rented, against 33.1% across the state, which on 40,153 households works out at roughly 15,300 rented houses. (US Census Bureau QuickFacts, American Community Survey 2020 to 2024 five-year estimates.) More rentals means more landlords, and a landlord who has had enough is the seller we meet most often in this county.
- A rental you are tired of running. Late rent, a tenant you would rather not chase, repairs that never end, and a property that stopped being worth the trouble a while ago.
- A tenant still living there. You do not need to give notice, start an eviction or wait out a lease. We buy with the tenancy in place.
- A house left empty after a move into care, or after a death. It costs tax, insurance and upkeep every month it stands there, and the longer it sits the worse it gets.
- An estate split between family in different states. Several owners, none of them local, and nobody wanting to be the one who deals with it.
- A house that needs more work than a lender will allow. Roof, wiring, foundation or water damage. Those are the things that make a normal buyer’s bank say no, which is exactly why people sell to us instead.
Three ways to sell a house in Madison County
| Sell to us | List with an agent | Sell it yourself | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Commission | Nothing | Typically 5 to 6 percent | Nothing |
| Repairs | Nothing. We buy it as it stands | Typically haggled over after the inspection | Down to you |
| Showings | Nothing | However many it takes | You host them |
| Closing costs | Paid by us | Typically shared | Down to you |
| Time to close | 14 to 21 days, or seven | As long as finding a buyer takes | No end date |
| Can it collapse | There is no lender, so no | Financing is what usually kills a sale | The same exposure |
| What you walk away with | Under full retail, and we say so | Typically the most, given a tidy house and time | The most, if everything goes right |
Straight about it: a house in good order, with several months to spare, will very likely net you more through an agent, and we would rather say that now than have you find out later. Where we win is a place that needs work, a house standing empty and costing you every month, or a deadline you did not choose.
What people say about working with us
Paperwork and costs in Madison County
- Where deeds are recorded. The Madison County Register of Deeds, Angie Byers, 100 E. Main St., Suite 109, Jackson, TN 38301, (731) 423-6028, open Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm. The office is in the courthouse and the records stay in the county.
- The state transfer tax. Tennessee takes 37 cents on every $100 of the sale price, the same figure in Jackson as in Memphis or Nashville. On a $220,000 house that is $814. It goes into our number at the start rather than appearing as a line you had not budgeted for.
- A house that came to you through a death. Estates are administered in the county where the property sits, so a Madison County house is handled in Jackson. We buy inherited property, belongings and all.

Questions Madison County sellers ask
I have a rental with a tenant still in it. Will you buy it?
Yes, and it is a large part of what we buy in Madison County. You do not have to give notice, start an eviction or wait for a lease to run out. We take on the tenancy as it stands, and the rent you are owed and the state of the place are priced in at the start rather than argued about later.
The house has stood empty since my mother went into care. Is that a problem?
No. An empty house is the situation we are built for. Nothing needs clearing, cleaning or fixing, and you can leave furniture and belongings exactly where they are. Take what matters to you and we handle the rest.
I inherited a house here and live in another state. Do I have to travel to Tennessee?
No. A title company handles the signing and it can be done by mail and email from wherever you live. We will get into the house ourselves to look at it, so nobody has to fly in or drive down for a walkthrough. If the estate is still going through the courts here, we work to whatever stage it has reached.
How does your offer compare with listing it with an agent?
Lower, and we would rather be blunt about it than have you work it out at closing. What you are trading that for is nothing paid in commission, nothing spent on repairs, nobody walking through your house, no closing costs and a date you choose yourself. A house in good condition, with several months to wait, will normally do better on the open market, and we say so when that is the case.
Do I need to repair anything or clear the house out?
Nothing at all. Whatever state the house is in is worked into the number before you ever see it, so there is no renegotiation once somebody has walked through. Bad roof, old wiring, a foundation that has moved, damp, or a house that is still full of furniture. It makes no difference to whether we buy.
How fast can I sell my house in Madison County?
Two to three weeks is normal. A week can be done where the title turns out clean, because nothing on our side is waiting on a bank, a valuation or an underwriter. If two weeks is too fast, say so. Plenty of our sellers need longer, for a move or because an estate has not finished, and we set the date around that.
