Owning a home with code violations in San Mateo can feel like a constant battle. You get letters from the city, warnings posted on your door, or even threats of fines or legal action. Whether it’s an unpermitted addition, electrical issues, foundation problems, or just a property that’s fallen into disrepair — dealing with code enforcement is stressful.
I’ve seen how quickly things can spiral. But here’s the good news: you can still sell your house, even with code violations, and skip the costly repairs altogether.
At R&H Distressed Properties, we buy houses with code violations in San Mateo as-is, and we’re ready to help you walk away clean — no permits, no contractors, and no more city notices.
Common Code Violations in San Mateo We See
We’ve helped San Mateo homeowners sell properties with:
- Unpermitted garages, ADUs, or additions
- Faulty wiring or plumbing
- Roof, foundation, or structural issues
- Junk-filled yards or hoarding conditions

Can You Sell a House With Open Code Violations?
Yes — and many do. The traditional route (listing with an agent) often means you have to:
- Disclose every violation
- Make costly repairs before escrow
- Negotiate with picky buyers
- Risk the deal falling through during inspections
When you sell to R&H Distressed Properties, we skip all of that:
- No inspections
- No appraisals
- No repairs
- No cleaning
- No back-and-forth with the city
Just a fair cash offer for your house as it stands.
