How Do I Sell My Hyattsville House With Tenants Who Won’t Leave?
A Story from Prince George’s County
When Carlos inherited his Hyattsville duplex near University Hills, he found tenants who refused to move out even after the lease expired. The water heater leaked, mold grew under the sink, and local code violations piled up. Struggling with foreclosure warnings and mounting fines, he needed a fast solution. If you’re in his shoes, facing uncooperative tenants and escalating risks, you’re not alone.
If you’re looking to sell fast, Capitol Cash Offer can help.
1. The Problem
- Tenants won’t leave, even after lease ends or during eviction process
- Leaky roof, mold, flooding or pest damage adding liability
- Foreclosure notices, overdue taxes, or code violation fines in Prince George’s County
- Prolonged vacancy risks: uninhabited units attract rodents or vandalism
2. Why Time Is Critical — Market & Local Context
- Prince George’s County median sale prices rose ~6% in the past year as of mid‑2025, making now one of the best windows to lock in value before rates rise further.
- Hyattsville is seeing new school boundary changes and traffic delays near Rhode Island Avenue Metro, concerns that make tenants resist showings.
- Nearby areas like University Hills and Chillum saw a surge in investor activity this spring. Sellers acting now can often close within 3–7 days, before local comps adjust downward.

3. Q&A: Your Options Explained
Q: Can I sell while my tenant refuses to cooperate?
Yes. You can still sell, especially to a cash buyer like Capitol Cash Offer. They often buy “as‑is,” without always needing interior access or tenant cooperation.
Q: What if they violate lease or refuse showings?
You can:
- Negotiate a cash-for-keys incentive
- Sell direct to investors who don’t require interior walkthroughs
- Wait for legal eviction, but that can take months and worsen your issues
Q: Are there legal risks with tenants refusing?
Yes, possible late payments, property damage, or code violations can escalate legal liability for you. Selling ASAP can shield you from further fines or issues.
