Sell a Rental Property with Tenants in Florida
Need to sell a rental property in Florida? For a lot of landlords, the numbers do not work the way they used to: insurance renewals keep climbing, repair bills keep coming, and rent increases have not always kept pace. If your rental stopped penciling out, Particular Properties buys rental properties across Central Florida for cash, as-is, with tenants in place. You get a fast cash offer, you can close in as little as 7 days, and you never serve a notice or fix another water heater.
A rental property can be sold while it is tenant-occupied. Existing leases, deposits, advance rents, and other tenant obligations need to be addressed as part of the sale. Florida Statute 83.49(7) specifically requires security deposits and advance rents being held for tenants to transfer to the new owner, together with applicable earned interest and an accurate accounting. Particular Properties coordinates the deposit and accounting information with the closing title company.
We buy occupied rentals the way retail buyers will not: your tenants can stay in place through closing, deposits are accounted for at the closing table, and we take on whatever comes after, including tenants behind on rent, month-to-month holdovers, and units you have not seen the inside of in years. You do not have to empty the property to sell it, and you do not have to be the bad guy on the way out.
Why Tired Landlords Sell Their Rentals to Particular Properties
Here is what waiting can cost a tired landlord: selling retail often means waiting out the lease or paying for an eviction, then a make-ready renovation, then months of vacancy while it is listed, with lost rent, turnover costs, and carrying costs adding up before you close. Meanwhile the next insurance renewal and the next repair keep landing. A cash sale with tenants in place skips that cycle.
When you sell your rental to us, the offer is built on real Central Florida comps and real rental numbers, and we show you the math. No repairs, no financing contingency, and no waiting to see whether a buyer’s lender is comfortable with your tenant. We schedule one walkthrough with you, then make you a cash offer. One property or your whole portfolio, we price it fairly and close on your date.

We Buy Rental Properties Across Central Florida, Including Seminole County
We buy every kind of rental: single-family homes with long-term tenants, small multifamily, former vacation rentals that stopped booking, inherited rentals you never wanted to manage, Section 8 units, and the problem property with the tenant who stopped paying 3 months ago. Condition does not matter and neither does occupancy.
That includes Seminole County. Particular Properties buys tenant-occupied rentals in Sanford, Lake Mary, Longwood, Altamonte Springs, Casselberry, Oviedo, and Winter Springs, from single-family homes along the I-4 and SR 417 corridors to townhomes and small multifamily. Your tenant can stay in place, and we buy the property as it sits.
We are a family-run Central Florida cash home buying company, and we buy these properties directly as the cash buyer, not as your agent. We understand leases, deposits, and estoppels, and we close through a title company that handles the deposit transfer and tenant accounting. When you call 407-258-6897 you talk directly to the buyer.
Wherever your rental sits in Central Florida, from Seminole County to the rest of the metro, run your numbers, then run ours: call 407-258-6897 for a free, no-obligation cash offer on your rental property, tenants and all.
Selling a Rental With Tenants in Florida: Your Questions Answered
“Can I legally sell my rental property in Florida while a tenant is still living there?”
Yes. A Florida rental property can be sold while it is tenant-occupied. The existing lease and tenant obligations need to be reviewed as part of the transaction. Particular Properties buys tenant-occupied properties, so you do not necessarily need to make the property vacant before selling.
“Do I have to evict my tenant before I can sell?”
No. Particular Properties buys tenant-occupied properties, so selling to us does not require a notice to vacate or an eviction filing, and you avoid lost rent while a unit sits empty. The existing lease is reviewed as part of the sale.
“What happens to the security deposit when I sell?”
Florida Statute 83.49(7) requires any security deposits or advance rents being held for your tenants to transfer to the new owner, together with any earned interest and an accurate accounting showing the amount credited to each tenant. We coordinate the deposit and accounting information with the closing title company so the transfer is accurate and documented.
“My tenant is behind on rent or won’t cooperate. Can I still sell?”
Yes. A tenant who is behind on rent, on a month-to-month holdover, or simply difficult to deal with does not stop a cash sale. We factor that into the offer up front instead of asking you to fix it first, so you are not carrying a problem tenant any longer than you have to.
“Do I need to give my tenant notice before showing or selling the property?”
Florida Statute 83.53 says a tenant may not unreasonably withhold consent for the landlord to enter and show the unit to prospective purchasers. That access is still subject to the statute and the terms of your lease, so check your lease’s notice provisions before scheduling anything. Selling directly to Particular Properties replaces a string of buyer showings with a single walkthrough, scheduled with you around your tenant.
“Will selling with a tenant in place get me a lower price than selling vacant?”
Sometimes, if you are selling to a retail buyer who plans to move in. It matters less to us: we underwrite occupied rentals off the rent roll and the real numbers, not a staged, vacant showing, so you are not penalized for having a paying tenant in place.
“Do you buy tenant-occupied rentals in Seminole County?”
Yes. Particular Properties buys tenant-occupied rentals throughout Seminole County, including Sanford, Lake Mary, Longwood, Altamonte Springs, Casselberry, Oviedo, and Winter Springs. Single-family homes, townhomes, and small multifamily all qualify, with the tenant left in place.
