Greene County Market Context
Greene County is the northern Catskills: Catskill's 1800s Main Street row houses, Coxsackie and Athens river villages, and Windham and Hunter ski-area second homes and Tannersville cabins. Hunter Mountain, Windham Mountain, and NYC weekend buyers drive the mountaintop, while Coxsackie's two state prisons and county jobs in Catskill anchor the river side.
Greene effective rates are roughly 1.8-2.5% of full value, lower than the Southern Tier; mountaintop towns lean on second-home owners who pay full school tax with no STAR exemption.

How Sell a Water-Damaged House Works in Durham
Insurance and Greene County water-damaged sales: you can sell to Tony before the insurance claim closes, after partial payout, or after a denial. Tony's offer is based on the property's current state, not the insurance settlement. Anything you collect from insurance is yours to keep.
How a Cash Offer on a Durham 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 Durham Sellers
What about FEMA flood-zone properties in Durham?
Tony buys flood-zone houses. Insurance and elevation requirements are Tony's problem after closing, not yours.
Can I sell my Durham house before insurance settles the water claim?
Yes. You can sell pre-settlement, post-settlement, or after a denial. Tony's offer doesn't depend on insurance.
What if my Durham house had Sandy damage and never got fully rebuilt?
Common. Tony has bought half-rebuilt Sandy properties throughout NJ. Studs-only, partial drywall, missing utilities — all OK.
What about hidden water damage I didn't know about?
Tony's offer assumes worst-case condition. If hidden damage exists, it's already priced in. The offer doesn't drop after closing.
