“Your Trusted Home Buyer REI Branded Home Buyer”
Many Tacoma homeowners have added rooms, remodeled kitchens, or finished basements—without pulling the proper permits. When it’s time to sell, that oversight can become a major obstacle.
At REI Branded Home Buyer, we buy homes with unpermitted work in Tacoma and handle the complications for you—no fines, no delays.
What Is Unpermitted Work?
Unpermitted work refers to renovations or improvements made without following the City of Tacoma’s building permit process. This can include:
- Electrical or plumbing upgrades
- Garage conversions
- Basement finishes
- Additions or structural changes
🔗 Unpermitted Work – WA Code Reference
🔗 Tacoma Municipal Code – Home Regulations
Problems Caused by Unpermitted Work
When trying to sell through a real estate agent, unpermitted work may:
- Fail inspection
- Lower property value
- Force you to bring everything up to code
- Create disclosure liabilities on Form 17

One seller in Tacoma’s McKinley neighborhood added a bathroom without a permit and panicked when the city issued a code citation. We bought the house in under 10 days and absorbed the issue.

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.
