What's the fastest you can close on my Buffalo house?
5 days when title is clean and the seller is ready. Standard is 7 to 14 days. Tony has closed Buffalo deals over a long weekend when the situation demanded it.
Cash in your hand in a week. No listing, no agent, no inspection, no buyer's mortgage to wait on. Tony closes Buffalo houses in 7 to 14 days, sometimes 5.
Listing a Buffalo house with an agent takes 3-6 months on average. Then 30-60 more days to close once you find a buyer. Tony's whole process — from first phone call to cash — is usually 7 to 14 days for Erie County, New York sellers.

The kind of two family property Tony has bought in Buffalo.
Erie County (Buffalo) has affordable older housing stock — Victorians, Polish flats, four-squares from the early 1900s. Many properties need significant systems updates.
Erie County tax rates are among the highest in the US relative to home value, often 2.5-3.5%.

What slows Erie County closings down: title issues, missing heirs, undisclosed liens, second mortgages no one knew about. Tony's title company catches all of those early and works through them in parallel. Most Buffalo sellers don't even know there was a problem because Tony just keeps moving.
Buffalo has affordable older housing — Victorians, Polish flats, doubles. Many need work. Tony buys them as-is, occupied or vacant. The signature stock is the frame "Buffalo double" — an up-and-down two-family from 1890–1930 — on the West Side, in North and South Buffalo, and across the East Side, alongside Queen Annes in Elmwood Village and Allentown, 1920s brick bungalows off Hertel, and workers' cottages in Black Rock, Riverside, and Kaisertown. East Side blocks have heavy vacancy and city-owned lots between occupied houses.
Buffalo sellers who call Tony are heirs to a double on the West Side or in South Buffalo that a grandparent bought in 1950 and nobody has updated since — knob-and-tube wiring, a slate roof, a cellar that takes water every spring, and a tenant downstairs paying $500. Out-of-town heirs in Charlotte or Phoenix don't want to fly in for a winter of showings. Others own an East Side house with a City of Buffalo housing-court case, back taxes headed for the City's In Rem foreclosure auction, or a vacant property the neighbors have been calling 311 about. Tony buys the double occupied, the vacant house as it sits, and the estate with the belongings — one number on the phone, closing on your date.
Buffalo sellers pay the 0.4% New York State transfer tax; Tony's offer is net of it. Erie County closings run on an abstract of title that the seller's attorney has updated, and deeds record with the Erie County Clerk downtown; estates go through Erie County Surrogate's Court on Franklin Street. Unpaid city taxes lead to the City of Buffalo's annual In Rem tax-foreclosure auction, and Erie County runs its own for county taxes — both can be stopped by a cash closing that pays the arrears. Nearly every Buffalo house predates 1978, so lead paint is assumed; Tony pays cash and needs no inspection.
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.

Yes — every Buffalo neighborhood, ZIPs 14201 through 14222. Doubles on the West Side, Queen Annes in Allentown and Elmwood Village, bungalows off Hertel in North Buffalo, cottages in Black Rock, Riverside, and Kaisertown, and East Side houses whether occupied, vacant, or boarded. One call with the address gets you a number.
Usually not, if the auction hasn't happened. Tony's title company orders the payoff from the City and the County, the arrears are paid from the proceeds at closing, and a cash closing in about a week typically beats the auction date. Whatever equity remains goes to you instead of being lost at the sale. Call as soon as you get the notice.
Yes. Once Erie County Surrogate's Court issues letters, Tony signs a contract with the executor or administrator, you sign the deed with a notary in North Carolina, and your proceeds are wired. The tenant stays and Tony becomes the landlord at closing. He buys the house with everything still in it, so nobody has to fly to Buffalo to clear it out.
Yes. City of Buffalo housing-court cases and Permit and Inspection Services violations transfer with the property, and Tony deals with them after closing. Any fines that have become liens are paid from the proceeds. You don't need to make the repairs first or appear at another court date once the house is sold.
