Landlords
Selling a Topeka rental.
If you own one or more rentals in Topeka and you are ready to stop managing them, we can buy them as they are. You do not need to wait for leases to end or fix units between tenants.
In most cases, an existing lease stays in force after a sale, and we take over as landlord. Difficult tenant situations, deferred maintenance, and below-market rents are all things we price in, not reasons to say no.
Foreclosure and taxes in Shawnee County
Foreclosure and property taxes in Shawnee County.
Kansas foreclosures go through the courts. In Topeka, the case is filed in Shawnee County District Court, and if it reaches the end, the house is sold at a Sheriff's Sale by the Shawnee County Sheriff. After the sale, Kansas law usually gives the owner a redemption period of 12 months, or 3 months in certain cases. See your options at each stage.
Kansas property taxes are due in two halves, on December 20 and May 10. If you are behind on property taxes, you can still sell. What is owed is paid at closing, and what is left is yours.
