Cash Offer vs. Traditional Sale in Long Island

We're honest about options. Here's a transparent comparison of selling to us versus listing with a Long Island real estate agent.

Factor Traditional Agent Sale 123 We Buy House Other Cash Buyers
Closing Time 30 - 90 Days 7 - 14 Days (Flexible) Varies (Often delayed)
Commissions & Fees 6% Commission + Fees ZERO Fees / 0% Comm. 0% (Usually)
Who Pays Closing Costs? Seller (approx. 2-4%) We Pay 100% Varies / Negotiated
Repairs Required? Yes (To pass inspection) None (Sold As-Is) None (As-Is)
Showings & Open Houses Frequent / Disruptive One 15-min Visit One Visit
Appraisal Needed? Yes (Mandatory) No Appraisal Needed Sometimes
Formal Inspection? Yes (Deal breaker risk) No Formal Inspection Varies
Clean Out Required? Yes (Must be spotless) No (Leave unwanted items) Usually No
Financing Contingency Yes (Can fall through) None (Cash money) None
Certainty of Closing Moderate (Fall-throughs happen) Very High Low/Medium (Wholesalers)
Local Expertise Varies by Agent Long Island Specialists Often National Chains
Important: We're not saying cash offers are always the best choice. If your Long Island home is in excellent condition, the market is strong, and you have 3-6 months to wait, traditional sale might net you more after fees and carrying costs. But if you need speed, certainty, or have a house needing repairs—cash offers often make more financial sense.

Frequently Asked Questions About Selling Your Long Island House Fast

Yes, it's completely legal to sell a house as-is in New York, including Nassau County, Suffolk County, Queens, and Brooklyn. "As-is" means you're selling the property in its current condition without making any repairs or improvements.

Legal Requirements in New York: Property Condition Disclosure Statement (Required):

New York law requires sellers to complete a Property Condition Disclosure Statement that reveals any known material defects. This includes:

  • Structural issues (foundation, roof, walls)
  • Environmental hazards (lead paint, asbestos, radon, mold)
  • Systems problems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC, septic)
You MUST disclose known problems—but you don't have to FIX them. Resources:
NY Department of State - Property Disclosure Requirements

Yes, selling homes as-is has become increasingly common, especially in Long Island. While exact statistics vary, industry estimates suggest 10-15% of residential sales in Nassau and Suffolk County are as-is transactions.

When As-Is Sales Are Most Common:
  • Inherited Properties: Heirs often sell as-is due to lack of funds.
  • Job Relocations: Professionals needing to move quickly.
  • Financial Hardship: Avoiding foreclosure or managing divorce.

Bottom Line: As-is sales are normal and increasingly common.

As of January 2026, Long Island house prices remain relatively stable with modest fluctuations between Nassau and Suffolk counties.

Current Market Trends:
  • Nassau County: Median sale price $625k-650k (Stable).
  • Suffolk County: Median sale price $525k-550k (Steady demand).

Cash buyers remain active regardless of broader market fluctuations.

Long Island Board of Realtors Market Reports

It depends on whether you're selling to a cash buyer or a traditional buyer.

Traditional Buyer (With Mortgage):

Yes. Traditional buyers almost always order inspections because lenders require them.

Cash Buyers (Like Us):

We typically WAIVE formal inspections. Our process involves:

  • A quick 15-20 minute walkthrough.
  • No formal inspection report.
  • No re-negotiation after the offer is accepted.

We can close as quickly or as slowly as you need. Because we pay cash, we have flexibility.

Standard Timeline:

We typically close in 14 to 21 days.

Emergency Situations:

If facing foreclosure, we can often expedite title search and close in as little as 7 days.

Yes, absolutely. We specialize in buying houses that need significant work.

We Buy Homes With:
  • Hoarding situations
  • Structural or foundation damage
  • Fire or water damage
  • Vandalism or squatter issues

We believe in full transparency. Our offers are based on a simple formula:

The Formula:

[After Repair Value] MINUS [Repair Costs] MINUS [Holding Costs & Profit] = YOUR OFFER

We pay all closing costs and charge no commissions. The offer price is the net amount you receive.

Yes. Selling is an effective way to resolve delinquent taxes and avoid tax auctions.

How It Works:
  • We Pay the Liens: Proceeds from the sale pay off back taxes directly.
  • You Keep the Equity: Any remaining funds go directly to you.
  • Stop Foreclosure: A signed purchase agreement can often pause a scheduled auction.
Avoid Real Estate Scams

Avoid Home Buying Scams

Protect your asset. Learn the difference between risky scams and how we operate as a trusted Long Island buyer.

Bait-and-Switch

They promise a high price verbally, then drastically reduce the number at the closing table when you have no other options.

How We Operate
We provide written offers within 48 hours. If the house condition matches our walkthrough, the price does not change.

Upfront Fees

Scammers ask for 'processing fees' or 'inspection fees' upfront ($500-$2000). Once paid, they disappear.

How We Operate
Real cash buyers NEVER charge fees. We pay YOU, and we cover all closing costs.

High Pressure

"Sign today or the offer expires!" They use panic to prevent you from consulting an attorney.

How We Operate
We give you time to review with your attorney and family. A legitimate offer doesn't evaporate in 24 hours.

No Proof of Funds

Buyers claim to have cash but refuse to show a bank statement. They often plan to resell your contract.

How We Operate
We provide a current Proof of Funds letter from our bank with every written offer.

Deed Fraud

Asking you to sign a "document" to start the process, which is actually a Quitclaim Deed transferring ownership.

How We Operate
Deed transfer only happens at the closing table with attorneys present, simultaneous with payment.

Wire Fraud

Fake emails pretending to be the title company changing wiring instructions to steal your proceeds.

How We Operate
We use reputable local title companies that verify all instructions securely via phone.

How to Verify a Buyer

  • Check BBB Rating & Google Reviews
  • Verify Physical Office Location
  • Ask for Proof of Funds
  • Verify Business Registration (NY)
  • Consult With Your Attorney

Our Commitment

We have been in Long Island for 26 years because we operate honestly. We don't just buy houses; we solve problems.

Transparency is our policy. Get 2-3 offers. If something feels wrong with another buyer, trust your instincts.

Serving Nassau & Suffolk Counties

Why Long Island Homeowners Choose 123 We Buy House

We're not the only cash buyer on Long Island—but here's what makes us different.

26 Years Serving Long Island (Since 1999)

We've been helping Nassau and Suffolk County families for over two decades. We're not a new company that might disappear—we're established, trusted, and local.

Many cash buyers are newcomers or out-of-state investors. We've been part of this community since 1999, through multiple market cycles.

Family-Owned, Not Corporate

When you call us, you aren't routed to a call center in another country. You speak directly with our family. We make decisions quickly because we don't have to answer to a corporate board or investors.

We treat every seller like a neighbor, because that is exactly what you are.

We Work WITH Professionals

Unlike some buyers who try to cut everyone out, we respect the role of professionals. We encourage you to have your attorney review our contracts.

If you are already working with an agent, we are happy to work with them to ensure a smooth transaction for everyone involved.

Honest, Transparent Pricing

We don't hide how we calculate our offer. We sit down and show you the math: the After Repair Value (ARV) of your home, minus the cost of repairs and our minimum profit.

Everything is open book. No hidden "service fees" or last-minute deductions at the closing table.

Licensed, Insured, Ethical

We operate a legitimate business entity registered in New York. We carry the proper insurance and adhere to a strict code of ethics.

We value our reputation more than any single deal. If our cash offer isn't the best solution for you, we will honestly tell you so.

Deep Local Knowledge

Long Island real estate is unique. From village tax rules to flood zones and legalization issues, we understand the specific challenges here.

An out-of-state algorithm can't value your home accurately. We know the difference in value between streets and school districts in Nassau and Suffolk.

How We Compare to Other Cash Buyers

Why sellers prefer our local approach:
100% Local: We live here, shop here, and know the market intimately.
Proof of Funds: We provide bank statements showing we have the cash to close.
No Wholesaling Games: We buy your house to renovate it ourselves, not to flip the contract to someone else for a fee.
Attorney Friendly: We use standard contracts and work with local title companies.
Flexible Closing: We close on your timeline, whether that's 14 days or 4 months.

Helpful Resources for Long Island Home Sellers

We believe informed sellers make better decisions. Here are trusted resources to help you understand selling your Long Island property.

Working with a Real Estate Attorney?

We encourage you to consult with a New York real estate attorney before selling, especially for complex situations like divorce, estates, or foreclosure. We're happy to coordinate with your attorney to ensure a proper, legal transaction.
