Questions About Selling a House in Seneca Falls, NY

We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us. Tell us what needs attention and what you know about access and occupancy; you do not need to finish repairs or clean out the house before asking about a sale.

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 you keep depends on the written sale terms and the property-specific costs and amounts due at closing. Compare the likely sale price with repairs, selling costs, mortgage payoff, liens, back taxes, and your share of current property taxes—not just the headline price.

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 tax, but the sale agreement can provide otherwise; applicable local transfer taxes may add to it. 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 a mortgage, liens, back taxes, or your share of current property taxes.

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. Stopping the foreclosure by paying the lender requires the full amount owed, including applicable interest, fees, and costs. 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 at least two months behind, New York's Home Equity Theft Prevention Act gives you 14 business days to cancel a sale to an investor. Check your actual court and lender deadlines; an agreement does not change them.

Yes, we can review a tenant-occupied property. Tell us what you know about the lease, access, occupancy, and timing so those facts can be included in the discussion.

No. You can call with the question you have now. The property address, what you know about its condition, and any deadline are a useful start; a deed, lease, tax notice, payoff information, or court paper can come up later if it is relevant.
