“How REI Branded Home Buyer Can Help”

If the City of Tacoma has issued a code violation, unpaid utility bill, or property maintenance citation, you may be facing a municipal lien on your property. These liens can quietly accumulate and block you from selling your house—especially if you’re behind on taxes, waste disposal, or property upkeep.

But don’t worry—REI Branded Home Buyer specializes in buying homes with municipal liens in Tacoma WA, even when traditional buyers back away.


What Is a Municipal Lien?

A municipal lien is a legal claim placed by the city or local government due to unpaid fees, citations, or enforcement costs. In Tacoma, these liens often stem from:

  • Overdue utility bills
  • Code violations (e.g. unsafe structures, illegal dumping)
  • Unpermitted work or lack of inspections
  • Fines for zoning infractions

These liens attach to your property title and must be addressed before a sale can close.

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.
