Can Tony close before my Geddes divorce decree deadline?
Almost always. Tony's standard close is 7-14 days. If the decree gives 30 or 60 days, that's plenty of room.
Court-ordered sale on a Onondaga County house? Tony closes in 7 to 14 days, the title company splits proceeds per the divorce decree, and you don't have to talk to your ex about the price. No agent, no showings, no negotiating with each other.
Divorce is hard enough without a house dragging it out. The agent showings on weekends. The arguments over price reductions. The buyer who backs out. Tony shortens the entire thing to one phone call and a 7-day close. You sell, the title company splits the money per the decree, you both walk.
Tony has closed dozens of Onondaga County divorce sales. Court-ordered short timelines, contested-price disputes between spouses, situations where one spouse is still living in the house and the other isn't — none of it stops the sale. Tony deals with both spouses through the closing attorney.

The kind of victorian property Tony has bought in Geddes.
Onondaga County (Syracuse) housing stretches from older Eastwood and Westcott colonials to suburban Cicero and Clay. Snowbelt-related water and roof damage is common.
Onondaga tax rates average 2.5-3.0%.

How a Onondaga County divorce sale works with Tony. Both spouses (or the spouses' attorneys) approve the cash offer. The title company drafts the closing per the divorce decree (or per a settlement agreement). At closing, both spouses sign — usually remotely with separate notaries so they don't need to be in the same room. Proceeds are split as the decree dictates and wired separately. The house, and the disagreement about the house, are off the table.
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.

Almost always. Tony's standard close is 7-14 days. If the decree gives 30 or 60 days, that's plenty of room.
Tony's offer is fair-market cash. Many spouses use Tony's number as the neutral fact that resolves the dispute. If one spouse refuses to sign, that's a court issue, not Tony's.
Yes. The title company follows the decree's instructions exactly. Both spouses get separate wires per the agreed split.
No. NJ and NY remote notarization makes it routine to sign separately. Most Geddes divorce sellers don't see each other through the entire closing.
Tony buys it occupied if the spouses agree. Or the move-out can be timed to the closing date. Both work.
