“I Didn’t Know I Had Options”: A Landlord’s Story of Finding the Right Exit

Sometimes the Best Solutions are Through an Agent. Let's Figure It Out Together.

Sometimes, the best way to understand your own path is to hear someone else’s.
Meet Janet. She owned three rentals in Eastern Washington—solid properties with long-term tenants, but the work was wearing her down. Between new landlord regulations and rising repair costs, she started thinking, “Is it even worth it anymore?”
When Janet Reached Out to Easy Landlord Exit.
Janet contacted us after receiving a postcard. She wasn’t sure what to expect—just that she was tired. She said, “I didn’t want to feel like I was giving away everything I worked for. But I didn’t want to keep managing tenants either.”
The Discovery Call
On our first call, we asked her about her goals, not just her property. Her priorities were:

  • Keeping some monthly income
  • Avoiding a big tax bill
  • Getting out of the day-to-day management
    She had assumed her only option was selling everything outright or staying a landlord. Nobody had explained the in-between.
    Building a Custom Exit Plan
    We worked with Janet to build a seller-financed exit on two of the properties. She got a modest down payment, monthly income for the next 8 years, and a final balloon payment that lined up with her retirement goals.
    Her third property? We told her she’d likely get a better outcome listing it through an agent—and we referred her to one we trust.
    What Janet Said After Closing
    “I had no idea people were doing things like this. You made me feel like I had control again. It wasn’t just about the money—it was about peace of mind. I sleep better now.”
    Why This Story Matters
    Janet’s situation isn’t unique. Many landlords are in her shoes—tired, overwhelmed, and unsure of their options.
    At Easy Landlord Exit, we don’t believe in one-size-fits-all offers. We take time to understand what you need, then tailor a solution that works for your life and your legacy.
