Can Tony close my Canarsie sale before my move date?
Almost always. Tony's standard close is 7-14 days. If you have 30+ days before the move, that's plenty of room.
Relocating for a Job from Canarsie, NY? Sell Fast for Cash
Moving truck booked? Job start date locked in? Tony closes the Canarsie sale in 7 to 14 days, gives you cash before you leave town, and you don't carry a vacant property from across the country.
Job relocations move on someone else's schedule. The new employer wants you in the office. The lease at the new place starts. The kids' school year matches the move. The house in Canarsie is the one variable you can't control — until it's not. Tony closes faster than any agent can list. Take the cash, take the moving truck, go.
Kings County relocating sellers carry one big risk: a vacant property 1,500 miles away. Property taxes don't stop. Vacant-home insurance is expensive. Lawn citations stack up. Tony eliminates the risk by closing before you leave.
- 7-14 day close — beats any moving-truck deadline
- Sign remotely from your new state
- Save 3-6 months of carrying costs after you move
- No remote-landlord risk and no agent commission
- Leave furniture you don't want to move cross-country
- Closing date moves with your timeline

Kings County Market Context
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%.

How Relocating for a Job Works in Canarsie
Some relocating sellers consider renting the Kings County house out instead of selling. The math rarely works for a remote landlord — repairs from 1,500 miles away cost double, tenants test the boundaries, and the IRS treats the property as a long-term rental for tax purposes. Tony's cash offer eliminates these decisions.
Sections of Canarsie Tony Buys In
Canarsie is almost entirely attached and semi-detached brick houses from the 1920s through the 1950s — one- and two-families on 20- to 25-foot lots with a driveway and a finished basement — plus detached capes and ranches near the water and a few six-story co-ops along Seaview Avenue. Homeownership is high and heavily Caribbean-American, and many houses have been in one family since the 1970s. Blocks south of Flatlands Avenue toward the Belt Parkway took serious flooding in Sandy.

Selling a House in Canarsie: What Tony Already Knows
Canarsie sellers who reach Tony are often heirs to a semi-detached brick that Mom and Dad bought in 1975, still in their names, with a basement apartment that was never legal and a Build It Back file from Sandy that never quite closed. Some owners are retiring to Florida or back to the islands and don't want to manage a rental from 1,500 miles away. Others are behind on property taxes after a job loss and got a lien-sale notice from the City. Tony buys the house occupied or empty, with the belongings, with the flood history, and with the taxes owed — one number on the phone, closing when you choose.

What a Canarsie closing actually involves
Canarsie sellers pay the NYC RPTT (1% up to $500,000, 1.425% above) and the 0.4% state transfer tax; Tony nets those out in his offer. Much of Canarsie south of Flatlands Avenue is in a FEMA flood zone, which means a mortgage buyer must carry flood insurance and a lender may demand an elevation certificate — Tony pays cash and needs neither. Basement apartments show up as certificate-of-occupancy mismatches; they don't slow a cash closing.
How a Cash Offer on a Canarsie 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 Canarsie Sellers
Do I have to be in Canarsie for the closing?
No. NJ and NY remote notarization lets you sign from anywhere. Most relocating sellers close from their new state without flying back.
What if my move date keeps shifting?
Tony rolls with it. The closing date is set by you, not Tony. As long as you give a few days' notice, Tony reschedules without penalty.
Should I rent the Canarsie house out instead of selling?
Math rarely works for remote landlords. Repairs cost double, tenant management is hard from far away, and the tax treatment is complicated. Most relocating sellers do better with Tony's cash offer.
What about the furniture I can't take with me?
Leave it. Tony takes the property with everything inside. Saves you the cross-country move of stuff you don't really need.
My Canarsie house flooded in Sandy and was never fully repaired. Will Tony buy it?
Yes. Tony buys Canarsie houses with Sandy damage that was patched but never finished, with an open Build It Back or SBA history, and with mold in the basement. He prices the repairs honestly and doesn't require an elevation certificate or flood insurance because there's no bank. Tell him what was done and what wasn't, and he'll give you a number.
Does Tony buy in all of Canarsie, including the blocks by the Belt Parkway and Paerdegat Basin?
Yes, all of ZIP 11236 — the attached bricks off Rockaway Parkway and Avenue L, the semi-detached houses around Canarsie Park, the waterfront blocks near Seaview Avenue and the Pier, and the co-ops by the basin. Flood zone or not, one call with the address gets you a number.
I got a NYC lien-sale notice on my Canarsie house for back taxes and water. What should I do?
You can sell before the lien is sold, or after — either way the arrears get paid off from the proceeds at closing. If the lien has already gone to the City's lien trust, the title company gets a payoff that includes the interest and fees, and Tony's offer accounts for it. Selling to Tony stops the clock without you having to come up with the cash first.
We're heirs living in Florida and Trinidad. Can Tony buy our parents' Canarsie house without us coming to Brooklyn?
Yes. Once Kings County Surrogate's Court issues letters to an executor or administrator, Tony's title company arranges signings by mail, at a notary in Florida, or at a U.S. embassy or consulate abroad, and wires each heir's share. Nobody has to fly to Brooklyn to clean out the house — Tony buys it with everything in it.
