You don't need a lecture about the housing market — you need a closing date. Our job is simple: we maintain a vetted network of cash buyers who actively purchase homes in New York County, and we match your property with the one who can move fastest on it. You get a no-obligation cash offer, usually within 24 hours, and you decide what happens next. In a county of about 1,629,477 people where the typical home runs $1.1 million, situations like this are more common than anyone admits out loud.
The real cost of waiting to sell
Every month a house sits unsold in New York County, it costs you: the mortgage payment, taxes, insurance, utilities, upkeep — often thousands of dollars — plus the life you've put on hold around it. A listing that drags for a season can quietly consume more money than the price difference between a full-market sale and a fair cash offer. Speed has a dollar value, and it's almost always bigger than people assume.
There's an emotional ledger too. Keeping a home "show ready" for months, leaving every weekend for open houses, watching deals wobble in escrow — sellers describe it as a part-time job they never applied for. A direct sale to a vetted NY cash buyer deletes that entire chapter: one walkthrough, one offer, one closing date you choose.
The New York angle
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. A cash sale also strips out the biggest timeline variables New York sellers face — lender-required repairs, appraisal contingencies, and buyer financing — which is how a New York County closing can legitimately happen in a week instead of a quarter. Title work is usually the only clock left, and experienced local buyers keep title companies on speed dial.
What you trade, what you keep
Run the real math before assuming a listing nets you more. Take the likely sale price, subtract agent commissions, the repairs an inspector will flag, the concessions financed buyers demand, and every month of mortgage, taxes, and insurance while you wait. For many New York County sellers, that number lands within a few percent of a serious cash offer — without the risk that the deal dies in escrow.
