Sell a House with Tenants in Silverdale, WA
You can sell a house with tenants in Silverdale without delivering it vacant. KindKey Home Buyers LLC is a principal buyer at 640 1st St SW in Auburn. KindKey is not a real estate agent or broker and does not list the house. KindKey is not your landlord-tenant lawyer and will not ask you to remove occupants illegally so the house is easier to see.
The area mixes commercial corridors, newer ridge subdivisions, and older houses closer to the water and Clear Creek. Some lots are on public sewer. Some older and outlying lots use septic. KindKey does not decide which from the name Silverdale.
Washington has rules about notice, entry, deposits, and ending a tenancy. KindKey does not advise you on those rules. If you are unsure whether you can enter or ask someone to leave, talk with a Washington attorney before you do it.
Rentals KindKey buys in Silverdale
Silverdale is an unincorporated community in Central Kitsap, not an incorporated city. There is no City of Silverdale. Old Town, the Bucklin Hill and Kitsap Mall area, Ridgetop, and Clear Creek are local names. Dyes Inlet is the water. Chico is nearby.
Owners sell houses they cannot keep up from another county, inherited houses, and properties where a repair or a septic system makes showings a poor fit. KindKey buys directly from Auburn.
Tell us whether the agreement is written, month-to-month, or unclear, and whether the occupant is current. A non-paying occupant is a different problem from a tenant with a lease. KindKey will not coach an eviction. If a foreclosure notice is also in the file, ask your attorney about RCW 61.34. KindKey does not interpret it.
Access, deposits, and closing
Bremerton and Poulsbo are incorporated cities on either side of central Kitsap. Silverdale is the unincorporated commercial center between them.
