Tired of Being a Landlord? Sell Your Rental Property for Cash
Being a landlord sounded like a great idea until the reality set in. Late rent payments, property damage, costly repairs, tenant drama, eviction proceedings, and margins that get thinner every year. If you’re done dealing with it, 3rd Shift Homes will buy your rental property for cash.
We buy rental properties across Chicagoland and Northwest Indiana, including properties with tenants currently in place. You don’t need to evict, repair, or even tell your tenants you’re selling. We handle everything after closing.
Common Reasons Landlords Sell to Us
There are plenty of good reasons to exit the landlord game. Maybe your tenants have stopped paying rent and you’re facing a long eviction process. Maybe the property needs $30,000 in repairs you can’t justify. Maybe you’ve inherited a rental you never wanted. Or maybe you’ve just had enough and want your capital freed up for something else.
Whatever your reason, we get it. We’ve worked with hundreds of landlords across the Chicagoland area who decided it was time to move on.
We Buy Tenant-Occupied Properties
One of the biggest advantages of selling to 3rd Shift Homes is that you don’t need to deal with your tenants before selling. We buy properties with tenants in place — even problem tenants. We handle the transition after closing, so you can walk away clean.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you buy rental properties with tenants still living in them?
Yes. We buy occupied rental properties and handle the tenant situation after closing. You do not need to evict, give notice, or even tell your tenants before selling to us.
What happens to my tenants after you buy the property?
We handle the tenant transition after closing. Depending on the situation, we may keep the tenants, offer relocation assistance, or work through the legal process. Either way, that becomes our responsibility, not yours.
Can I sell if my tenants are behind on rent?
Yes. Non-paying tenants are one of the most common reasons landlords sell to us. We factor the tenant situation into our offer and take over the problem at closing.
Do I need to make repairs before selling my rental property?
No. We buy rental properties in any condition. Deferred maintenance, tenant damage, outdated systems — none of that matters. We purchase as-is and handle all repairs ourselves.
