What to do if seller won't vacate property

Member since 2023 · 164 posts · 15 votes

If I wholesale a deal, what to do if escrow closes and the buyer refuses to leave? Will the cops remove the seller? I'm trying to avoid the long process of eviction. Thanks in advance.

This is what you do and final walkthrough prior to closing (usually morning of). If the seller has not vacated then the closing gets delayed.

Never close on a seller making promises.

You should include a clause to delay closing up until sellers have left the property completely vacant.

Another vote for walking through morning of closing. Make sure nothing’s stolen, it’s vacant and it’s not flooded or burnt down.
