A Contractor Who Knows Lake County
Fruitland Park is a small city tucked between Lady Lake and Leesburg, and the housing stock tells the story of decades gone by. Most homes here were built in the 1960s through 1980s, and many still have their original aluminum wiring, galvanized plumbing, and shingle roofs that are well past their rated lifespan. I've been buying properties across Lake County since 2014, and Fruitland Park calls usually start with the same problem: the insurance company dropped the policy, and now the homeowner can't sell to a financed buyer. As a State Certified General Contractor (CGC1534000), I price the work myself before making an offer. That's why our offers don't fall apart after inspection.
We use standard FAR/BAR "As-Is" contracts and close with Lake County title companies.
Selling a House in Fruitland Park? Here's What We See.
Fruitland Park is a city of about 5,000 people where most of the residential construction happened between the Kennedy and Reagan administrations. That era of Florida building left a specific set of problems that keep showing up in every deal. Aluminum wiring, which was standard from the mid-1960s through the late 1970s, is now a disqualifier for most insurance companies. Galvanized steel plumbing corrodes from the inside over 40-50 years, and by now most of it is restricting water flow or actively leaking behind walls. Roofs installed 20+ years ago can't get a four-point inspection pass, which means no insurance, which means no mortgage. The result: homeowners who need to sell find themselves stuck. Their house is too old to insure, too costly to update, and the buyer pool shrinks to cash-only. That's exactly where we come in. We buy Fruitland Park houses in any condition, with any combination of these problems, and we close with cash through local Lake County title companies.
Neighborhoods and Areas We Buy In
Why Fruitland Park Homeowners Call Us
Aluminum Wiring and Insurance Denials
Many 1960s-1970s Fruitland Park homes still have aluminum wiring. Insurance companies won't write policies on them, which kills any deal requiring a mortgage. Cash buyers like us aren't affected. Learn more →
Galvanized Plumbing Failures
Original galvanized pipes from the 1960s-1970s corrode from the inside. Low water pressure, rust-colored water, and pinhole leaks behind walls are common. A full repipe costs $8,000-$15,000. We factor that into our offer. Learn more →
Uninsurable Roofs
Roofs older than 15-20 years can't pass a four-point inspection in Florida. No inspection pass means no insurance, and no insurance means no mortgage approval. We buy with cash and replace the roof after closing. Learn more →
