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.

Useful questions about selling in Gloversville
What would I keep if I sell my Gloversville house for cash?
Net proceeds are what remains after sale costs and payoffs, not just the headline price. Compare a written offer with a realistic listing plan, including repairs, commission, other selling costs, mortgage payoff, liens, and the cost of carrying the house. The actual numbers depend on the property and the written terms.
Do I need to repair, clean, or clear out a house before selling to you?
We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us.
What is the difference between a Cash Offer and EZ Sale?
The comparison above lays out the two options. Compare the written numbers, timing, and responsibilities for your house, then choose what works for you.
How soon will I get a written cash offer?
We give written cash offers in 24 hours. We give you the written offer and terms before you commit, and closing takes place through a title company.
Who pays New York real estate transfer taxes and closing costs?
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. New York State real estate transfer tax is $2 for each $500 of sale price, or part of $500, when the price exceeds $500. The seller normally pays this base tax, though the sale agreement can provide otherwise, and 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. The title company can confirm the charges for the actual sale. A seller’s mortgage, liens, back taxes, or share of current property taxes are separate from the closing costs we pay.
Can I sell my Gloversville house before a foreclosure auction?
A sale may still be possible before the foreclosure auction if the mortgage payoff and other closing obligations can be covered. New York foreclosures go through court, and a referee conducts the sale; after the auction, there is no right to buy the house back. Our agreement of sale will often get a foreclosure sale postponed so we can close. Signing alone doesn't postpone it automatically; we use the agreement to ask for the postponement, and it works more often than people think. If you live in the house and are in foreclosure or two or more months behind, New York’s Home Equity Theft Prevention Act gives you 14 business days to cancel a sale to an investor. Stopping it by paying the lender requires the full amount owed, including applicable interest, fees, and costs. Use the actual court and lender notices to check the deadlines that apply to you.
What should I have ready before I call?
You can call before you have every detail or document. Tell us what you know about the house and the question on your mind; we can start there. We give you the written offer and terms before you commit, and closing takes place through a title company.
