Delaware County Market Context
Delaware County is the western Catskills: Delhi, Walton, Sidney, Margaretville, Andes, and Hancock. Housing is 1880s village homes, dairy-farm parcels, and weekend cabins bought by NYC families; SUNY Delhi and Sidney's Amphenol plant are the largest employers, and much of the county sits inside the NYC watershed.
Delaware effective rates run roughly 2.2-2.9% of full value; NYC DEP land purchases around the Pepacton and Cannonsville reservoirs keep shrinking the taxable base in Andes and Margaretville.

How Probate Property Sale Works in Franklin
When heirs are spread across the country, Delaware County probate sales used to mean travel and notarized signatures everywhere. Now, with remote notarization and e-signing, Franklin probate closings happen with heirs in three time zones who never need to be in the same room.
How a Cash Offer on a Franklin House Is Actually Built
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.

Questions From Franklin Sellers
Does the Franklin probate court have to approve the sale?
It depends on the estate and the specific authority granted. Some sales need court confirmation, some don't. Tony's title company and your attorney coordinate this — you don't need to know the rules.
What if Delaware County probate is just starting on the Franklin estate?
Tony can still make an offer and lock in terms now. Closing happens once letters are issued — usually 30-90 days into Delaware County probate, sometimes faster.
What about heirs who can't agree on the Franklin sale?
If the executor has authority to sell under Franklin-state law and the will, the sale can proceed. If heirs object, that's usually handled by the probate court. Your attorney advises; Tony stays patient.
Does Tony charge anything extra for Franklin probate transactions?
No. Same offer process, same fee structure (none charged to seller), same closing process. The complexity is on Tony's side.
