How much commission do I save by selling my Westmoreland house to Tony directly?
5-6% of sale price. On a $300K Westmoreland house, that's $15,000-$18,000. On a $500K, $25,000-$30,000. You keep all of it.
Selling a Westmoreland house through a Oneida County agent: list it, stage it, show it, take low offers, negotiate inspections, wait on the buyer's mortgage, pay 6% commission. Selling to Tony: phone call, offer, close. The math is obvious.

The kind of two family property Tony has bought in Westmoreland.
Oneida County is Utica — 1880s-1920s two- and three-family homes in Cornhill, East Utica, and West Utica, many resold to refugee families since the 1990s — and Rome, where the 1995 Griffiss Air Force Base closure left cheap housing now tied to the Air Force Research Lab and the Wolfspeed chip fab in Marcy. New Hartford, Whitesboro, and Clinton (Hamilton College) are the suburban tier.
Oneida effective rates run roughly 2.6-3.3% of full value; Utica and Rome city rates are the high end.

What you save by skipping the agent in Westmoreland: 5-6% commission ($20K-$40K on a typical Oneida County sale), $1,500-$3,000 in pre-listing repairs and staging, 30-90 days of mortgage payments while the property sits, and the inspection negotiations that take another 1-2% off the price.
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.

Tony is the buyer. There's no buyer to find — you're calling the buyer directly. No MLS, no Zillow listing, no showings.
MLS exposure is how agents find buyers. Tony doesn't need it because Tony already has cash and is already the buyer. The whole reason for MLS evaporates.
Sometimes a tiny bit less, sometimes more. The commission savings often more than offset any difference. And if your Westmoreland house needs work, has a complication, or just needs to sell fast — the agent route nets you less in the end.
No listing agreement. No exclusivity. No "right to sell." You call, Tony makes an offer, you decide. If you say no, you owe nothing — there's no contract until you sign one at closing.
Save $20K+ on a typical Oneida County sale. Call Tony at 1-908-768-4759 — direct buyer, no agent.
