Rental Property in Broward County.
In Florida, a lease survives the sale; the buyer takes title subject to the existing lease and steps into the landlord's shoes on identical terms. That's Chapter 83 Part II of the Florida Statutes: a fixed-term lease binds the new owner until it expires; a month-to-month tenancy can be ended by either side with 30 days' written notice under § 83.57(3). The deposit follows the house: under § 83.49(7) it transfers to the buyer with an accurate accounting at closing, and the statute presumes the buyer received it, which is why the closing paperwork matters to you. Showings are the hidden cost of listing occupied: under § 83.53 a tenant can't unreasonably refuse entry for the landlord to show the home to buyers on reasonable notice, generally 24 hours, but an unhappy tenant shows badly, and occupied homes sit. And if the tenant is the problem (a nonpayment eviction starts with a 3-day notice under § 83.56(3) and runs through the courts), or you can sell with the problem priced in and let it become InTym Properties'.
Selling a rental in Idaho.
Idaho has no uniform landlord-tenant act, but the same sale mechanics apply. The buyer takes title subject to the existing lease; a fixed term runs to expiration; a month-to-month or at-will tenancy ends on one month's written notice under Idaho Code § 55-208. Deposits: under § 6-321(3) the new owner is liable for refunding them, so they transfer as buyer credits on the settlement statement, document it, because a tenant claiming a lost deposit later becomes a problem for whoever can't produce the record. Two honest differences from Florida: Idaho has no statutory entry right for showings; your lease controls, and a tenant who won't cooperate can stall a traditional listing. And Idaho expressly preempts local rent control under § 55-307(2), so a buyer who keeps your tenant can reset rent on proper notice. Nonpaying tenants here mean a 3-day notice under § 6-303 and then a court process, or a sale where the problem transfers to InTym Properties.

Selling a rental in Ohio.
Ohio's Landlord-Tenant Act, Chapter 5321, puts the lease at the center of the sale: the buyer takes title subject to the existing lease, a fixed term runs to expiration, and a month-to-month tenancy ends on thirty days' written notice before the periodic rental date under R.C. 5321.17. Deposits transfer as buyer credits on the settlement statement, with a catch landlords forget: deposit amounts above one month's rent owe the tenant five percent annual interest on the excess once the tenancy passes six months under R.C. 5321.16. Showings are the listing friction: under R.C. 5321.04 the landlord may enter on reasonable notice, twenty-four hours is presumed reasonable, to show the property, but a resistant tenant still makes an occupied listing drag. A nonpaying tenant means a three-day notice to leave the premises and then a forcible entry and detainer action under Chapter 1923, or a sale where the problem transfers to InTym Properties, priced in.

Selling a rental in Michigan.
Michigan lease mechanics favor the occupied sale. The buyer takes title subject to the existing lease; a fixed term runs to expiration; a tenancy at will or month-to-month ends on one month's notice under MCL 554.134. Nonpayment starts with a seven-day demand for possession under MCL 600.5714 and then summary proceedings in district court, or the problem prices into the offer and becomes InTym Properties'. Deposits carry a Michigan-specific rule: under MCL 554.614 the seller remains liable on each deposit until it is transferred to the buyer with written notice to the tenant, so the settlement-statement credit and the tenant notice both have to happen, and both happen at closing. One Michigan tax fact prices into every rental offer honestly: under Proposal A, MCL 211.27a, the property's taxable value uncaps to state equalized value at transfer, so the buyer's property tax jumps; that is priced into the number rather than discovered after.

Questions.
Can I sell my rental while the tenants are still living in it?
Yes. In every state we serve the sale doesn't end the tenancy: the lease transfers with the deed and binds the buyer on the same terms. You sell occupied; InTym Properties takes over the landlord role at closing.
Does the lease have to expire before I can sell?
No. A fixed-term lease survives the sale for its full remaining term: a lease with eight months left means eight months of tenancy for the buyer. InTym Properties buys subject to it.
What if my tenant won't cooperate with showings?
That's a listing problem, not a cash-sale problem. Florida gives the landlord entry to show on reasonable notice under § 83.53, Ohio presumes twenty-four hours' notice reasonable under R.C. 5321.04, and Idaho leaves it to the lease, but in every state an uncooperative tenant makes a home show badly and sit longer. With InTym Properties there's one walkthrough, scheduled around the tenant.
What happens to the security deposit when I sell?
It transfers at closing and the transfer is documented. Florida requires deposits and advance rents move to the buyer with an accurate accounting under § 83.49(7); Idaho makes the new owner liable under § 6-321(3); Ohio credits the deposit on the settlement statement, with five percent interest owed on amounts above one month's rent after six months under R.C. 5321.16; Michigan holds the seller liable until the deposit transfers with written tenant notice under MCL 554.614. Keep the closing paperwork: it's what ends your liability.
My tenant stopped paying. Do I have to evict before selling?
No. An eviction is a statutory notice and then a court process that runs weeks or months: a 3-day notice in Florida (§ 83.56(3)) and Idaho (§ 6-303), a 3-day notice to leave the premises under Ohio's Chapter 1923, and a 7-day demand for possession under MCL 600.5714 in Michigan. InTym Properties buys properties with nonpaying or problem tenants priced in; the situation becomes ours at closing.
Will a tenant in place lower my offer?
Honestly, it depends on the tenant. A solid tenant at market rent can strengthen the number: InTym Properties buys income, and occupied is income-producing. A nonpaying or destructive tenant prices the other way. Either way the tenancy shows up in the offer math, line by line.
Will the buyer's property taxes go up on a Michigan rental?
Yes. Under Proposal A, MCL 211.27a, the property's taxable value uncaps to state equalized value at transfer, so the buyer's tax bill resets upward from what you paid. That reset is priced into the offer rather than discovered after closing.
