“Your Trusted Home Buyer REI Branded Home Buyer”
If you’ve received a code violation notice from the City of Tacoma, you’re not alone. Aging homes, DIY repairs, or neglected maintenance can trigger warnings that complicate selling your property.
At REI Branded Home Buyer, we buy houses with code violations in Tacoma every month—and we’ll take yours as-is, no matter what’s wrong.
What Is a Code Violation?
A code violation occurs when a property doesn’t comply with local safety, building, zoning, or health regulations. Common issues include:
- Illegal renovations or additions
- Faulty or exposed wiring
- Trash accumulation or unsanitary conditions
- Unpermitted plumbing or HVAC
- Foundation issues

Why Code Violations Scare Away Buyers
Homes with active code violations are tough to sell the traditional way:
- Buyers may be unable to finance the home
- Violations must be disclosed on Form 17
- Agents and inspectors will flag issues
- Cities may fine you daily or file a municipal lien

About REI Branded Home Buyer
Real People. Real Stories. Real Solutions. We’re George and TJ — two regular guys who teamed up to create REI Branded Home Buyer, a local company with one simple mission: to help people sell their homes without stress, games, or pressure. We actually met at a local real estate meetup. A mutual friend randomly shouted, “Hey George, do you want to be this guy’s mentor?” George laughed and said, “Just give him my cell!” A coffee meeting later, and the rest is history. We've been working together ever since. Our passion for helping homeowners comes from personal experience. George was once homeless, so he deeply understands what it’s like to face housing uncertainty. TJ’s family went through a crisis and had to sell their home fast — with the help of a cash homebuyer. Those experiences shaped who we are and inspired us to create a company that treats people the way we wish we’d been treated. Let’s be real: the real estate world is full of shady companies, pushy salespeople, and sleazy homebuyers who care more about profit than people. We started REI Branded Home Buyer because we believe it should be the other way around — people first, profit second. We’re proud to call Spokane home. Our wives, Jenny and Michelle, love the slower pace of life here and all the outdoor beauty Washington has to offer. George and Jenny have two amazing daughters and two dogs — they love to travel and recently visited Japan to see their daughter abroad. TJ and Michelle are outdoor lovers through and through — backpacking, hiking, hunting, fishing, even rock climbing. Michelle’s become quite the mountaineer! If you’re thinking about selling a house — no matter the reason — we’d love to hear your story and see how we can help.
