CAN’T SELL BECAUSE OF PESTS? HOW TO SELL A HOUSE WITH A PEST INFESTATION FAST

Pest problems can quickly turn a home from a valuable asset into a stressful burden. Whether it’s termites eating away at the structure, roaches in the kitchen, or rodents in the attic, pest infestations are a major red flag for traditional buyers—and a nightmare for property owners trying to sell.

If you’ve got a home with serious pest issues, you’re not stuck. At Moe Buys Homes, we buy houses in any condition—including homes with active pest infestations. You don’t need to tent the house, fix the damage, or even clean it up. We’ll make a cash offer as-is, and you can walk away from the problem for good.


Most potential buyers—and their agents—will walk away the second they see:

  • Rodents, cockroaches, or termites
  • Signs of nesting in walls or ceilings
  • Pest-related damage to wood, wiring, or insulation
  • Active bug infestations or droppings
  • Unpleasant odors or mold from pest activity

Even minor infestations can scare buyers off due to:

  • Health risks
  • Safety concerns
  • Insurance and loan issues
  • High extermination and repair costs

Pests don’t just bring discomfort—they bring down property value and can delay or cancel closings.


Fixing a pest-infested home is expensive. Even a small termite issue can snowball into $10,000+ in structural damage. Rodents often chew through electrical wiring, creating fire hazards. Roaches and bed bugs are notoriously hard to eliminate completely, sometimes requiring multiple treatments over several months.

On top of extermination, you may also need:

  • Drywall repair
  • Floor and insulation replacement
  • Deep cleaning
  • Professional inspections and clearances

All of that takes time and money—two things many homeowners don’t have.


If you have the time, funds, and energy to handle extermination, repairs, and marketing your home through a realtor, that’s one option.

But for many sellers, it’s just not worth the stress.

Here’s when it makes sense to sell your pest-infested property fast:

  • The cost of extermination is too high
  • You’re an out-of-state or absentee owner
  • You inherited the home and don’t want to fix it
  • The house is vacant and deteriorating
  • You’ve tried to fix the problem but pests keep coming back
  • You’re in foreclosure or facing code violations

We’ve helped homeowners across the region sell houses with all kinds of infestations—termites, rats, cockroaches, fleas, even snakes. Our process is quick, confidential, and stress-free.

Here’s how it works:

  1. Contact us — Tell us about the situation (no judgment)
  2. We assess the property — No need to clean or clear out the pests
  3. You get a cash offer — Within 24–48 hours
  4. Choose your closing date — We work on your timeline
  5. Walk away pest-free — You don’t lift a finger

Angela owned a rental property that had become overrun with rats and cockroaches after a long-term tenant moved out. The cleanup was overwhelming, and two pest control companies quoted her over $7,000 for fumigation and repairs.

“I was so stressed. I didn’t want to put more money into the house. Moe Buys Homes gave me a fair cash offer, and I closed in 9 days. It was a huge relief.”


Do I have to treat the pests before you buy?
Nope. We buy houses in any condition—including those with active infestations.

What if I already started pest control but didn’t finish?
That’s fine. We’ll take the property as-is, whether treatments are ongoing, incomplete, or never started.

Will you still buy if there’s damage from pests?
Yes. Whether it’s chewed wires, wood rot, or mold—we’ll still make you an offer.


If you’ve got unwanted roommates and you’re ready to walk away from the mess, Moe Buys Homes is here to help.

We buy homes with pest problems fast and hassle-free—no repairs, no cleanup, no showings.
