How much commission do I save by selling my Summerhill house to Tony directly?
5-6% of sale price. On a $300K Summerhill house, that's $15,000-$18,000. On a $500K, $25,000-$30,000. You keep all of it.
Real estate agents charge 5-6% commission. On a typical Cayuga County sale that's $20,000-$40,000 gone before you see a dime. Tony charges nothing. The cash quote is the cash you keep on your Summerhill property.

The kind of cape property Tony has bought in Summerhill.
Cayuga County is Auburn — 1870s-1920s brick and frame houses in the old prison-and-factory city — plus lakefront cottages on Owasco Lake and Cayuga Lake's east shore, and dairy farms north to Fair Haven on Lake Ontario. Auburn Correctional Facility and Auburn Community Hospital are the largest steady employers.
Cayuga effective rates run roughly 2.8-3.4% of full value; the City of Auburn carries a heavier city-plus-school load than the lake towns.

What you save by skipping the agent in Summerhill: 5-6% commission ($20K-$40K on a typical Cayuga County sale), $1,500-$3,000 in pre-listing repairs and staging, 30-90 days of mortgage payments while the property sits, and the inspection negotiations that take another 1-2% off the price.
Every cash buyer, Tony included, starts from the same three numbers: what the house would sell for fully renovated, what it costs to get it there, and how long that takes. The offer is that finished value minus the repairs, minus the buyer's resale costs and margin. In practice that lands most cash offers somewhere around 70–85% of the renovated value, less repairs. The honest comparison is not against a renovated house's list price — it is against what you would actually net from a NY listing after commission, repairs, and months of carrying costs.
| Line item | List with an agent | Sell to Tony |
|---|---|---|
| What the house would sell for fully renovated | $400,000 | $400,000 |
| Repairs a retail buyer's lender will demand | − $45,000 | Tony's problem |
| Agent commission (5–6%) | − $20,000 to $24,000 | $0 |
| Inspection credits, seller closing costs, concessions | − $8,000 to $12,000 | $0 |
| Taxes, insurance, mortgage, utilities while you wait (3–6 months) | − $9,000 to $15,000 | $0 |
| Time to cash in hand | 4 to 7 months | 7 to 14 days |
| What you actually walk away with | ≈ $305,000 to $318,000 | Tony's number, in full, on your date |
Whether Tony's number beats that listing net depends on the house. On a move-in-ready home in a hot NYmarket it usually will not, and Tony will tell you to list. On a house that needs work, has tenants, sits in an estate, or carries violations — the houses retail buyers cannot finance — it is often close, and the seven-day timeline is the difference. Call 1-908-768-4759, get the number, and compare it yourself.

Tony is the buyer. There's no buyer to find — you're calling the buyer directly. No MLS, no Zillow listing, no showings.
MLS exposure is how agents find buyers. Tony doesn't need it because Tony already has cash and is already the buyer. The whole reason for MLS evaporates.
Sometimes a tiny bit less, sometimes more. The commission savings often more than offset any difference. And if your Summerhill house needs work, has a complication, or just needs to sell fast — the agent route nets you less in the end.
No listing agreement. No exclusivity. No "right to sell." You call, Tony makes an offer, you decide. If you say no, you owe nothing — there's no contract until you sign one at closing.
Skip the 6%. Call Tony at 1-908-768-4759. Direct sale on your Summerhill house — no agent in the middle.
