What's the fastest you can close on my Bay Ridge house?
5 days when title is clean and the seller is ready. Standard is 7 to 14 days. Tony has closed Bay Ridge 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 Bay Ridge houses in 7 to 14 days, sometimes 5.
Listing a Bay Ridge 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 Kings County, New York sellers.

The kind of two family property Tony has bought in Bay Ridge.
Kings County (Brooklyn) is brownstones, multi-families, and pre-war apartment stock. Bedford-Stuyvesant, Crown Heights, Flatbush, Bushwick, East New York all have heavy inherited-property volume.
NYC property taxes use Class 1 (1-3 family) assessment that lags market value significantly. Effective rates vary by class but typically 0.8-1.5%.

Speed comes from cash. Every delay in a normal New York sale is a financing problem: the buyer's mortgage commitment, their appraisal, their inspection, the underwriter requesting one more document. Tony has cash, so none of that exists. Kings County title companies can close a clean cash deal on a Bay Ridge house in 5 to 10 business days.
Bay Ridge is 1920s–30s limestone and brick rowhouses — many built as two-families — on the numbered streets, six-story pre-war co-ops and elevator buildings along Shore Road, Ridge Boulevard, and Colonial Road, large detached houses on the bluff near Shore Road, and apartments over storefronts on Third and Fifth Avenues. Generational Italian, Irish, Norwegian, and now Arab and Chinese families own much of it, and a striking number of houses have never changed hands since the original purchase.
Bay Ridge sellers who call Tony usually own a limestone that's been in the family since the 1950s and now belongs to four siblings scattered across Staten Island, New Jersey, and Florida. The house has the original kitchen, a tenant on the second floor paying 1990s rent, and a lifetime of belongings. Other callers own a Shore Road co-op they inherited and are tired of paying maintenance while the board rejects buyer after buyer. Tony buys the house occupied and full, and buys the co-op after board approval — one number on the phone, closing on the family's date.
Bay Ridge sellers pay the NYC RPTT (1% up to $500,000, 1.425% above) and the 0.4% NYS transfer tax; on sales over $1 million there's also the NYC mansion tax, which the buyer — Tony — pays. Co-ops in Bay Ridge require board approval and often carry a flip tax charged to the seller; Tony's attorney gets the offering plan and building financials so the number he quotes is net of it. Cash means no appraisal, so a house that hasn't been updated since 1962 doesn't need to justify a bank's value.
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.
