Experience buying houses

Our founder bought his first property in 2004 — more than 20 years of buying houses.

We've helped homeowners in just about every situation you can imagine — thousands of times. When you're working with someone, you want to know they've seen it before. We have.

Every house and sale is different. Tell us what you know about the Elmira property, and we can discuss the as-is option and the written terms for that house.

The written offer and closing

We review the property details with you and give you a written offer and written terms before you commit. You can compare the offer, ask questions, or decide not to move forward. If you choose to sell to us, the closing is handled through a title company.

We always review the settlement sheet with the seller and walk through how the money breaks down so there is no confusion. We try to do that the day before closing so settlement is smooth; the title company confirms the final numbers.

When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including New York State real estate transfer tax and any applicable local real estate transfer taxes. Your mortgage balance, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes remain separate.

Signing from another location

Sell from anywhere in the country — we can send a notary to you, and you don't have to attend settlement or even visit the property.

Two ways to sell to us

We have two ways to buy. A Cash Offer is built for speed, condition, and tough situations — heavy repairs, tight timelines, difficult circumstances. EZ Sale is often the better fit when the house doesn't need major repairs and you want a higher number. Either way, you compare written numbers and you pick what works best for you.

Cash Offer

  • USA Home Buyers buys directly.
  • 30 days or less.
  • Lower price.
  • No repairs, no commissions, no closing costs.

EZ Sale

  • Goes to one of our partners.
  • 60 days or less.
  • Higher price than the Cash Offer.
  • No repairs, no commissions, no closing costs.

The program terms are comparisons, not a promised amount or a property-specific closing date. The written options let you see the numbers before you choose.

What sellers say about USA Home Buyers

Here's what sellers have said about working with us.

“Monroe County family court, sale required. Park Avenue condo, beautiful neighborhood, but neither of us could buy out the other and we both needed the money to start over. USA Home Buyers gave us a written offer the same week we called. Both attorneys said yes, closed in thirteen days.”
Angela and Paul D.Park Avenue, Rochester NYJune 2025
“I was behind on my mortgage after a medical situation. New York judicial foreclosure takes 12-24 months, but once the bank files in Monroe County Supreme Court, your options narrow fast. USA Home Buyers explained exactly where I stood and closed before the foreclosure judgment. I walked out with enough to start over.”
Diana W.South Wedge, Rochester NYFebruary 2026
“Lake Ontario flooding in the spring got into our basement on Lakeshore Boulevard twice. The second time killed the furnace and HVAC and left six inches of standing water. Our insurer totaled the contents but fought the structural claim. USA Home Buyers knew Charlotte's flood situation well — no surprises in the offer, no inspection drama. Closed in ten days.”
Eileen M.Charlotte, Rochester NYMay 2025
