Homes in Utica and Oneida County
Your written offer and closing
We give written cash offers in 24 hours.
Written offer and written terms before you commit; title-company closing.
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. This does not pay your mortgage, liens, back taxes or your share of current property taxes.
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.
Cash Offer or EZ Sale: compare the written numbers
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.

What sellers say about USA Home Buyers
Here's what sellers have said about working with us.
“Paychex offered me a position at their Scottsdale office and I had five weeks. My house in Irondequoit was fine but I couldn't do open houses and wait on financing. USA Home Buyers closed nine days after I accepted. I was in Arizona before my start date.”
“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.”
“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.”
