“Why Sell to REI Branded Home Buyer?”
Being a landlord in Spokane isn’t always sunshine and rent checks. Sometimes, you’re stuck with tenants who won’t pay, refuse to leave, or damage the property. And when that happens, it’s normal to ask…
“Can I still sell this house?”
Short answer: Yes, you can.
At REI Branded Home Buyer, we’ve helped dozens of landlords sell homes with bad tenants, broken leases, or even ongoing evictions. If you’re tired of being a landlord and want out—we’ve got your back.
What Qualifies as a “Problem Tenant”?
In Spokane, we’ve seen it all. The most common situations include:
- Non-payment of rent for months at a time
- Lease violations, like subletting without permission
- Aggressive or uncooperative behavior toward landlords
- Damage to the home or hoarding conditions
- Refusal to leave after lease expiration
Whether you’re dealing with one tenant or a duplex full of issues—we can still make a cash offer.
Spokane Landlord Story: Tenant Refused Access
We recently helped a landlord with a rental in Whitman where the tenant stopped paying rent and blocked all access. Property was trashed, the locks were changed, and the landlord was at her wits’ end.
We made a cash offer based on exterior photos, took on the legal headache ourselves, and closed once the tenant vacated (with zero out-of-pocket costs for the seller). Problem solved.
Can You Sell a House With a Tenant Inside?
Yes—and you have a few options:
- Sell With Tenant in Place
- If rent is current, you may sell to another investor like us.
- Sell With a Problem Tenant Inside
- We buy properties even if tenants aren’t paying or are in violation.
- Start the Eviction Process First
- If preferred, you can begin eviction and we’ll wait until they’re out.
We work with landlords in all Spokane neighborhoods, including Downtown Spokane, Logan, University District, and more.

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.
