Tampa · Hillsborough County

We buy houses in Tampa — as-is, for cash.

We buy houses across Tampa — Seminole Heights, Sulphur Springs, West Tampa, East Tampa, Town ’n’ Country and South Tampa.

Hillsborough runs tax deed auctions much more often than Pinellas, so if your Tampa house has a tax deed application, the timeline can be short. Call as soon as you get a notice.

Straight Answers

Questions we hear a lot

Do you really buy in Tampa, or is this a national call center?

AL Cakici buys directly, from his office at 433 Central Ave in St. Petersburg. When you call (727) 258-3540, you reach him — and contracts are signed by Tampete Homes LLC, his Florida company.

What does it cost to sell to you?

Nothing. No commission, no fees. We pay the normal seller closing costs, and any taxes or liens are paid from the proceeds at closing.

Which county offices handle my house?

For Tampa, deeds, probate cases and tax deed sales run through the Hillsborough County Clerk of the Circuit Court (official records, probate, and tax deed sales), and property taxes through the Hillsborough County Tax Collector. We check the public record with you so there are no surprises.
