Here's our model in one sentence: we've vetted a network of local cash buyers across New York, and when you tell us about your New York County property, we match it with the buyer best positioned to make a strong offer and actually close. You pay nothing, you're obligated to nothing, and you get a real number — usually within 24 hours. With 1,629,477 residents and median home values around $1.1 million, New York County sees this exact situation constantly — you're not the outlier you feel like.
Why the matchmaker model instead of "we buy houses" directly? Because the buyer who pays the most for a rental with tenants is rarely the one who pays the most for a probate estate or a fire-damaged colonial. Matching each property to the right specialist — and keeping only buyers who close at their offered price — is how sellers here get both speed and a fair number.

What's actually happening in New York County
Because New York County is part of a metro area, the buyer pool here is deep: our network typically includes multiple active purchasers competing for NY properties, and competition is what pushes offers up. Homes in New York County carry a median value around $1.1 million — roughly 475% above the typical New York county — so even a house that needs serious work usually holds meaningful equity worth protecting. Median household income here is about $104,000 against much higher home values — a stretch that keeps traditional financed buyers scarce and makes cash the dominant currency for quick sales in New York County.

New York law, in plain English
New York is the slowest foreclosure state in the country: a 90-day pre-foreclosure notice, mandatory settlement conferences, and backlogged courts mean cases routinely run two to three years — long, but the debt and interest keep growing the whole time. New York allows redemption any time before the foreclosure auction actually occurs, but nothing after the hammer falls.
New York probate runs through Surrogate's Court and requires citation to all heirs — locating and serving distant relatives is a classic source of delay. Estates with real property almost always need full probate or administration.
New York's state transfer tax is 0.4%, but NYC adds 1%-1.425% plus the mansion tax starting at 1% over $1 million — city sellers face some of the highest transfer costs in the U.S. None of this is legal advice — but knowing the local rules is why a genuinely New York-based buyer prices and closes better than a national call center.

New York County seller questions, answered
What happens after I submit the form?
Three steps: we confirm the property details (a short call or text), match it with the vetted New York County buyer best suited to it, and that buyer presents a written no-obligation cash offer — typically within 24 hours. If you accept, they open title and you pick the closing date. Total time from form to funds can be under two weeks.
How are the buyers vetted?
Buyers must document proof of funds and a track record of completed purchases before they receive a single property from us, and we monitor whether their offers actually close. Buyers who lowball, retrade after agreeing to a price, or fail to close get removed. It's the opposite of the "we buy houses" lead-selling model, where your information goes to whoever pays for it.
Am I obligated to accept the offer?
Never. The offer is free and carries zero obligation — many homeowners request one simply to compare against listing with an agent. If the numbers don't work for you, you've lost nothing but a few minutes, and the offer typically remains valid for a window of time if you change your mind.
The auction is only weeks away. Is it too late?
Maybe not — but every day matters now. Experienced pre-foreclosure buyers can close in as little as 7 days and coordinate directly with your lender's payoff and foreclosure counsel. Submit the property today and flag the sale date; matches like this get prioritized. Even if the timeline can't work, knowing quickly costs you nothing.
Can I sell an inherited house before probate is finished in New York?
Usually, yes — with proper authority. Once the court appoints a personal representative (executor/administrator), that person can generally sell estate real property during administration, sometimes with court confirmation depending on the case. New York probate runs through Surrogate's Court and requires citation to all heirs — locating and serving distant relatives is a classic source of delay. Estates with real property almost always need full probate or administration. Buyers experienced with estates can time closing around those steps rather than waiting for probate to fully close.
Will the buyer renegotiate after finding more problems?
A professional buyer prices in discovery risk — that's their business. Network buyers make offers intended to stick; retrading after agreement is grounds for removal. Contrast that with traditional sales, where the post-inspection renegotiation is practically a scheduled event.
