How to reach us

Call or text: (727) 353-6206

Tampa Teardown is run by 131 Cash Home Buyers. If a family member is calling on your behalf, that is fine too.

What to have handy

You do not need paperwork to call. But if you know these, it helps:

  • The property address
  • Lot size, if you know it, or whether the house sits on more than one lot
  • How long you have owned it, and whether it was inherited
  • Whether there is a mortgage, reverse mortgage, liens or back taxes
  • Who is on the deed
  • Roughly when you would like to move

If you do not know some of it, that is fine. We can look most of it up in public records.

What happens next

  1. We talk for a few minutes about the property and your plans.
  2. We set up one walkthrough at a time that works for you.
  3. We give you a written cash offer and explain how we got there.
  4. You take as long as you need to decide. If you say yes, you pick the closing date.

See how we buy for the full process, or the FAQ for common questions.

No pressure, ever

A call is not a commitment. It is fine to call a year before you are ready to move, just to know where you stand. We will be here when the time is right.

Questions owners ask

Can I text instead of calling?
Yes. Text (727) 353-6206 with the address and a good time to reach you.
Can my son or daughter handle this for me?
They can make the calls and be at the walkthrough. Everyone on the deed will need to sign at closing, or someone holding a valid power of attorney.
Do you buy outside Hillsborough and Pinellas?
Not through Tampa Teardown. We stick to the two counties we know well.

General information, not legal, tax or zoning advice. Every lot is different; local rules decide what can be built. Updated November 2026.

After 30 years

When it’s time, it should be simple.

You don’t need to fix the roof, empty the garage, or figure out zoning. Tell us about the house. We’ll look at the land the way a builder does, make a written offer, and close when your next home is ready.

Our offer is below what a fully updated house would list for, because we buy as-is and pay to clear the lot. If listing would clearly put more in your pocket and you have the time, we’ll tell you.

Call (727) 353-6206

What’s your lot worth?

Send the address. Alex will call you, usually the same day, and tell you plainly what we can pay and why.

Free. No obligation. Nobody will pressure you.
