Can I sell an Irondequoit house without fixing it first?
Yes. You can compare an as-is sale with listing or selling on your own. We buy the house in its current condition, so you do not need to repair, clean, or clear it out to sell to us.
Local details that can help you compare
The Town's history describes a shift from farms and Bay-side resorts to postwar homes, including ranch houses and center-entry colonials. If your house needs work, tell us what needs attention and we can compare an as-is sale with listing it. Read the Town of Irondequoit history.
Irondequoit is a town in Monroe County, separate from the City of Rochester. If you're unsure which local office handles a question about the house, call us — we'll sort it out with you. See the Town of Irondequoit.
Compare ways to sell an as-is house
A listing can put the house in front of buyers, while you work through preparation, buyer access, and negotiations. Selling it yourself means you handle the marketing, calls, and coordination. If you would rather compare a direct sale, we have two ways to buy:
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. Still no repairs, no commissions, no closing costs.
Close as fast as 7 days when title and closing details allow.
Compare what you would keep
Look at the sale amount beside likely repair and cleanout costs, listing expenses, mortgage payoff, liens, back taxes, current property-tax share, and the bills you would carry while waiting. A lower price can still be worth comparing if it means less work or a different timeline.

New York transfer taxes and sale costs
New York State real estate transfer tax is $2 for each $500 of the sale price, or part of $500, when the price exceeds $500. The seller normally pays this base tax, but the sale agreement can provide otherwise. Local transfer taxes may add to it. A separate 1% mansion tax applies to residential sales of $1 million or more and is normally paid by the buyer. See the New York State transfer-tax guidance.
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. No agent commissions when you sell to us. No fees.
