Sell Your House As Is Fast in Suffolk County

The fastest possible timeline is about 7 days from first contact to closing. Here's how:

• Day 1: You contact us
• Day 2: We visit your property
• Day 3-4: We present cash offer
• Day 5-7: Contract signed, title work begins
• Day 7: Closing (if all title work clear)

However, most sellers prefer 14-21 days to plan their move. We're flexible and work on YOUR schedule. Some clients take 60-90 days, which is perfectly fine. The key is: YOU choose the closing date, not us.

Absolutely. "As-is" means exactly that—we purchase your property in its current condition with zero repairs required. This includes:

• Cosmetic Issues: Outdated kitchens, worn carpets, old paint, dated bathrooms
• Mechanical Problems: Old HVAC systems, plumbing issues, electrical concerns
• Structural Issues: Foundation problems, roof leaks, water damage
• Code Violations: Even if the property has open violations
• Deferred Maintenance: Years of neglected repairs

We've purchased properties in every condition imaginable. Unless the house is literally condemned and uninhabitable, we can likely make you an offer.

Fire damage? We've handled it. Hoarder situations? We've cleaned them. Mold problems? We remediate. Storm damage? We've bought many. Your property's condition doesn't disqualify it—we're experienced with all situations.

Our offers typically range from 70-85% of what the property would sell for in fully repaired, retail condition (After Repair Value or ARV). The exact percentage depends on:

• Better overall condition
• Desirable location/neighborhood
• Strong local comparables
• Minimal repairs needed
• Quick closing possible

• Extensive repairs needed
• Property liens or title issues
• Less desirable area
• Oversupply of similar homes
• Need for extended closing

We're honest: we're investors who need to make a profit. After buying your house, we pay for:

• All repairs and renovations ($20,000-$100,000+ typical)
• Property taxes and insurance during renovations
• Utilities and maintenance
• Contractor and material costs
• Real estate agent fees when we resell (5-6%)
• Our business operating costs

Our profit comes AFTER all these expenses. For most sellers, accepting 70-85% of ARV in exchange for zero repairs, zero hassle, and immediate certainty is a worthwhile trade-off.

Zero commissions. Zero fees. We don't charge you anything to buy your house. Traditional agent sales cost sellers:

• 5-6% agent commissions ($25,000-$30,000 on $500,000 home)
• Inspection repair concessions ($3,000-$10,000 average)
• Staging and preparation ($2,000-$5,000)
• Potential price reductions after appraisals
• Carrying costs during months on market

When we make an offer, that number is what you receive at closing (minus any mortgages, liens, or taxes owed on the property). We often cover closing costs too, though this is negotiable based on the specific situation.

We profit after buying your house, making repairs, and reselling at market value. Our entire business model depends on:

1. Buying below market value
2. Adding value through renovations
3. Reselling at full market price
4. Profit = (resale price) - (purchase price) - (repair costs) - (all other expenses)

We take all the risk. If repairs cost more than expected, if the market drops, or if we can't resell profitably, we absorb those losses—not you.

• List your property on MLS
• Hope to find a buyer
• Buyer needs mortgage approval (can fall through)
• Process takes 3-6 months typically
• You pay 5-6% commission
• You make repairs before listing
• Multiple showings required
• Sale contingent on buyer financing, inspection, appraisal
• Buyer can walk away up until closing

• WE are the buyer
• No waiting for someone else
• We pay cash (no financing contingency)
• Close in 7-60 days (your choice)
• Zero commissions or fees
• Buy as-is (you make zero repairs)
• One property visit needed
• No contingencies (guaranteed sale)
• We don't walk away once contract signed

• Use agent if: House in great condition, you have 3-6 months, want to maximize price
• Use us if: Need to sell quickly, house needs work, want certainty and convenience

Both are legitimate options. We often recommend agents for houses that don't need repairs and where timing isn't urgent. Choose what's best for YOUR situation.

Zero obligation. Seriously. Here's our no-pressure promise:

1. We ask basic questions about your property
2. We schedule a convenient visit time
3. We visit your house (15-30 minutes)
4. We send you a written cash offer within 24 hours
5. You review the offer—take days, weeks, or months to decide
6. Accept, decline, or negotiate
7. If you decline, we respect your decision completely

• Pressure you to accept our offer
• Harass you with calls or emails
• Make you feel bad for declining
• Share your information with third parties
• Charge you for our offer

• Get other offers to compare
• Consult with family, friends, attorneys
• Take time to think about it
• Negotiate terms
• Ask unlimited questions
• Change your mind even after initial interest

We succeed by being helpful and respectful, not pushy. If we're not a good fit, we'll tell you honestly and may even point you toward better options (agents, attorneys, loan modification services, etc.).

Yes, but timing is critical. Here's what you need to know:

If you're behind on mortgage payments but foreclosure hasn't been filed yet, we have the most flexibility. We can:

• Purchase your house quickly
• Pay off your mortgage
• Potentially leave you with cash
• Stop the foreclosure process before it starts
• Protect your credit from foreclosure damage

Once foreclosure is formally filed with the court, we can still help, but we need to:

• Work with your lender to negotiate payoff
• Ensure enough equity exists for sale
• Complete purchase before auction date
• Get your attorney involved for legal guidance

This is most time-sensitive. If an auction date is scheduled:

• Contact us IMMEDIATELY
• We need 14-21 days minimum before auction
• Must confirm sufficient equity to pay off mortgage
• Requires fast title work and lender cooperation

Once the property is sold at auction, we typically cannot help—you've lost ownership. This is why early contact is crucial.

Important: Foreclosure laws in New York are complex. We strongly recommend consulting with a foreclosure attorney alongside working with us. We can refer you to experienced local attorneys if needed. The Suffolk County Bar Association also offers resources.

Title issues are solvable, but they require transparency and planning. Here's how we handle them:

• Property tax liens
• Mechanic's liens (unpaid contractors)
• Judgment liens (court judgments)
• IRS or state tax liens
• Code violation liens
• HOA liens (if applicable)
• Estate/probate complications

1. Title Search: We order a comprehensive title search immediately
2. Identify Issues: All liens and encumbrances are documented
3. Calculate Payoff: We determine total amount needed to clear title
4. Make Offer: Our offer accounts for lien payoffs
5. Pay at Closing: Liens are paid directly from closing proceeds

Your house has an After Repair Value of $400,000

• Our potential offer: $300,000 (75% of ARV)
• BUT you have: $50,000 in tax liens
• Revised offer: $250,000 ($300,000 minus $50,000 liens)
• At closing: $50,000 goes to pay liens, you receive $250,000 (minus mortgage payoff)

Sometimes liens exceed the property's value. In this case:

• We may not be able to make a viable offer
• You may need to negotiate with lien holders for reductions
• Bankruptcy might be a better option (consult attorney)
• Short sale with your lender might be necessary

Important: Suffolk County property tax liens accumulate quickly. Three years of unpaid taxes can exceed $30,000-$45,000. If you're behind on taxes, contact us soon before liens make the property unsellable.

Possibly, but it depends on the probate status. Here's what you need to know:

When someone dies owning real estate, the property typically must go through probate court before it can be sold. In New York:

• Probate is handled by Surrogate's Court
• Process takes 6-12 months (or longer if contested)
• Executor/Administrator must be appointed
• Court must authorize the sale

Sometimes yes, with court approval:

• Executor/Administrator petitions court for sale authority
• We provide our purchase offer to court
• Court reviews and approves if in estate's best interest
• Sale proceeds go to estate, distributed per will or law

Once probate is complete and property is deeded to heirs, the sale is straightforward. Heirs can sell like any other property owner.

If multiple siblings/heirs inherit the property:

• ALL heirs must agree to the sale
• ALL must sign the contract and deed
• Proceeds are split per the will or New York intestacy law
• We can work with attorneys to facilitate this

We've handled dozens of inherited property sales, including complex multi-heir situations. We're patient and willing to work with your family's timeline and circumstances.

Recommendation: Work with an estate attorney. We can provide referrals to experienced Suffolk County estate attorneys if needed.

It's not legally required, but we STRONGLY RECOMMEND IT. Here's why:

In New York, it's customary (though not required) for both buyers and sellers to have attorneys review and negotiate real estate contracts. This protects both parties.

• Reviews purchase contract
• Negotiates terms if needed
• Conducts or reviews title search
• Identifies potential issues
• Protects your interests
• Handles closing documents
• Ensures legal compliance

Real estate attorneys in Suffolk County typically charge $1,500-$3,000 for a straightforward home sale. While this seems like an added cost, it's worthwhile protection and often saves money by catching issues early.

We're transparent: we're the buyer, which means our interests and yours aren't always perfectly aligned. Your attorney ensures you're treated fairly and that the transaction is handled correctly.

We work with several experienced local real estate attorneys and can provide referrals if you don't have one. The Suffolk County Bar Association also maintains a referral service.

Bottom Line: While you CAN sell without an attorney, we encourage every seller to hire one. The peace of mind and legal protection are well worth the cost.

Timeline is entirely flexible—YOU choose:

• Requires clear title
• No major title issues to resolve
• Cash ready to deploy
• All parties available for closing
• Rush title work (additional cost, which we cover)

• Comfortable pace for most sellers
• Allows proper title search and resolution
• Time to plan your move
• Coordinate with your attorney

• You need time to find new housing
• Estate/probate issues require more time
• Complex title issues need resolution
• Tenant lease-up concerns
• You want to stay through holidays, end of school year, etc.

At contract signing, YOU specify the closing date. We accommodate your needs. Many sellers ask, "How soon can you close?" but equally important is, "How much time do YOU need?"

• Title search results (clean title vs. issues to resolve)
• Your personal timeline needs
• Availability of attorneys and closing agent
• Any negotiated contingencies
• Lien payoff processing time (if applicable)

Can We Change the Date? Yes, closing dates can usually be extended by mutual agreement if circumstances change. Life happens—we understand.

Yes, we buy tenant-occupied properties. This is actually a common scenario for us, and we handle it in different ways:

If tenants have a valid lease:

• We honor the existing lease terms
• Tenants become our tenants after closing
• You're not responsible for eviction
• Good for tenants with long-term leases

If you prefer to remove tenants first:

• We can wait for lease expiration
• You handle tenant departure
• We close once property is empty
• May get slightly higher offer (vacant properties worth more)

If tenants are problematic or need to leave:

• We negotiate "cash for keys" after closing
• We pay tenants to leave voluntarily
• You're not involved in this process
• Often faster than eviction

If tenants aren't paying or are violating lease:

• We've dealt with this many times
• Understand New York tenant laws and eviction process
• Can pursue eviction if necessary after purchase
• Price our offer accounting for this risk/cost

Advantage: Selling to us means YOU don't deal with tenant removal. This is particularly valuable if you inherited a rental property with problem tenants—you can walk away and let us handle it.

Transparency is important—here's exactly what we do:

After closing, we:

• Thoroughly assess all needed repairs
• Create renovation plan and budget
• Hire contractors (licensed and insured)
• Order materials
• Obtain necessary permits

Typical renovations include:

• Structural repairs (roof, foundation, systems)
• Mechanical updates (HVAC, plumbing, electrical)
• Cosmetic improvements (kitchen, bathrooms)
• Flooring, painting, and finishes
• Landscaping and curb appeal
• Code compliance work if needed

Once renovated:

• Professional photography and staging
• List with local real estate agent
• Market to retail buyers
• Sell at full market value
• New family moves in

We're not flippers looking to do cheap cosmetic work. We do QUALITY renovations that add real value to the neighborhood. Many of our renovated homes become the nicest on the block.

Our business model actually helps communities by:

• Removing blighted/deteriorating properties
• Making quality improvements
• Bringing new families to neighborhoods
• Improving property values
• Bringing neglected homes back to life

Sometimes we keep properties as long-term rentals, providing quality housing for Suffolk County families.
