If you moved to Florida and still own a property in Puerto Rico, you're not alone. Thousands of Puerto Ricans live in Florida and still own houses on the island that they no longer use, can't maintain, or simply want to sell.
The problem is that selling from far away feels complicated. How do you handle showings? Who takes care of repairs? What if the house has title or inheritance issues?
In this article, we explain how you can sell your house in Puerto Rico from Florida quickly, safely, and without the headaches.
The reasons are many. Some moved for work or to pursue new opportunities. Others left after Hurricane María or during the pandemic. Some inherited a property from a family member and never moved back to the island.
What they all have in common is this: they own a house in Puerto Rico that's costing them money, causing stress, or sitting there as a constant worry — and they don't know how to sell it without traveling back and forth.
When you live in Florida and own a house in Puerto Rico, you can run into several difficult situations.
The house is deteriorating. Without someone to maintain it, the property can suffer damage from humidity, pests, vandalism, or simply the passage of time. Every month that goes by, the condition gets worse and repair costs go up.
Expenses that never stop. Even if you don't live there, you're still paying property taxes (CRIM), insurance, water, electricity, and possibly maintenance fees. Those costs add up fast.
Legal or title problems. Many properties in Puerto Rico have unresolved inheritance situations, incomplete titles, or outstanding debts. Handling that from another state is even more difficult.
You can't show the house to buyers. If you try to sell the traditional way, you need to be available to show the property, coordinate with a realtor, and wait months for a buyer who may never come.
The best option for many boricuas in Florida is to sell directly to a company that buys houses for cash in Puerto Rico. Here's how the process works with Tu Casa Cash:
1. Contact us from wherever you are. You can call us, message us on WhatsApp, or fill out the form on our website. It doesn't matter if you're in Orlando, Miami, Tampa, Jacksonville, or anywhere else in Florida. Everything can be done by phone and remotely.
2. We evaluate your property. Our team in Puerto Rico handles the property evaluation. You don't need to be there. We coordinate everything on the island.
3. We make you a cash offer. After evaluating the property, we present you with a fair cash offer. There are no realtor commissions, no hidden fees, and no waiting for bank approvals.
4. We handle the paperwork. Our legal team manages the entire closing process. If there are inheritance, title, or debt issues, we work to resolve them. You don't have to worry about a thing.
5. You get your money. We close fast and you receive your payment. It's that simple.
It doesn't matter. At Tu Casa Cash, we buy houses as-is. You don't have to repair, paint, clean, or remodel anything. Whether the house has hurricane damage, roof problems, humidity, termites, or any other issue, we buy it just the way it is.
We know that when you live far away, it's nearly impossible to coordinate repairs. That's why we eliminate that step completely.
Many of our clients in Florida inherited properties in Puerto Rico. Sometimes the declaration of heirs isn't complete, there are multiple heirs involved, or there are debts tied to the property.
Our team includes professionals and attorneys who specialize in these cases. We handle the legal matters so the sale can be completed without you having to manage anything from Florida.
Selling with us has clear benefits, especially if you live off the island.
Everything is done remotely. You don't need to travel to Puerto Rico. We buy the house in any condition. You don't spend money on repairs. We cover the closing costs, which means less money out of your pocket. We close fast — in days, not months. There are no realtor commissions or hidden fees. And if there are legal issues, our team takes care of it.
Every month that goes by with that property in Puerto Rico is money you could be using for your life in Florida. Whether the house is sitting empty, falling apart, or giving you headaches, there's a fast solution.

I inherited a property on the island that was in bad condition, and I didn't have the resources to fix it. Tu Casa Cash came through with a great deal and closed the deal in just two weeks. Highly recommended!
