The kind of cape property Tony has bought in Flushing.
Queens County Market Context
Queens County has detached single-families and two-families across south Queens (Jamaica, Hollis, St. Albans, Cambria Heights, Laurelton, Rosedale). Many are inherited from grandparents who immigrated in the 1950s-70s.
Queens NYC Class 1 rates apply; effective rates are 0.7-1.4% on actual market value due to assessment caps.

How Probate Property Sale Works in Flushing
Probate sales for a Flushing property usually take longer than non-probate sales because court timing isn't fully under your control. But Tony's part — making the offer, getting funds ready, scheduling closing — is fast. The wait is the court, not Tony.
Sections of Flushing Tony Buys In
Flushing's housing runs from 1920s–30s detached frame houses and brick colonials in Murray Hill and Auburndale, Tudors in the deed-restricted Broadway–Flushing district, and post-1980s brick two- and three-family infill on subdivided lots, to six-story co-ops on Sanford Avenue and Kissena Boulevard and new condo towers downtown. Chinese and Korean families own much of it, often through multiple generations, and many houses carry an unpermitted extension or a converted garage from years of large households.

Selling a House in Flushing: What Tony Already Knows
Flushing owners who call Tony are often adult children whose parents have moved back to China, Korea, or Taiwan — or passed away there — leaving a house on a Flushing side street with a tenant in the basement, an extension DOB never saw, and paperwork in two languages and two countries. Others own a co-op on Sanford Avenue whose board takes months to approve anyone, or a downtown condo with rising common charges. Tony buys the house as-is with the unpermitted work and the tenants, buys the co-op after board approval, and arranges signings through a consulate abroad — one number on the phone, closing on your date.

What a Flushing closing actually involves
Flushing sellers pay the NYC RPTT (1% up to $500,000, 1.425% above) and the 0.4% NYS transfer tax; Tony's number is net of both, and on sales over $1 million the buyer-side mansion tax is Tony's cost. Overseas heirs sign at a U.S. consulate or before a local notary with an apostille, and Tony's title company handles the translation and recording. Houses in Broadway–Flushing carry old deed covenants on setbacks and use that affect renovation, not sale.
How a Cash Offer on a Flushing 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 Flushing Sellers
Does the Flushing probate court have to approve the sale?
It depends on the estate and the specific authority granted. Some sales need court confirmation, some don't. Tony's title company and your attorney coordinate this — you don't need to know the rules.
What if Queens County probate is just starting on the Flushing estate?
Tony can still make an offer and lock in terms now. Closing happens once letters are issued — usually 30-90 days into Queens County probate, sometimes faster.
What about heirs who can't agree on the Flushing sale?
If the executor has authority to sell under Flushing-state law and the will, the sale can proceed. If heirs object, that's usually handled by the probate court. Your attorney advises; Tony stays patient.
Does Tony charge anything extra for Flushing probate transactions?
No. Same offer process, same fee structure (none charged to seller), same closing process. The complexity is on Tony's side.
My parents own a Flushing house but live in Taiwan. Can Tony buy it without them flying back?
Yes. Tony's title company prepares the deed and closing documents for signing at the American Institute in Taiwan or a U.S. consulate elsewhere, or before a local notary with an apostille, and wires proceeds to any bank. He's done this for Flushing families in China, Korea, and Taiwan. A power of attorney executed properly abroad can also let a child in Queens sign for them.
Does Tony buy in Murray Hill, Auburndale, and Broadway–Flushing as well as downtown Flushing?
Yes — ZIPs 11354, 11355, and 11358. Frames and colonials on the side streets off Northern Boulevard, Tudors in Broadway–Flushing, brick multi-families near Kissena Park, co-ops on Sanford Avenue, and condos on Main Street and Roosevelt Avenue. One call with the address gets you a number.
My Flushing house has an extension and a garage apartment that were built without permits. Will Tony buy it?
Yes. Unpermitted extensions, converted garages, and basement units are extremely common in Flushing, and Tony buys them as they are. If there's an open DOB violation or a certificate-of-occupancy mismatch, it transfers to him at closing. A bank buyer's lender would refuse the file; Tony pays cash and doesn't care.
Will Tony buy my Flushing co-op or condo, or does he only buy houses?
Both. He buys condo units downtown and co-op apartments in the six-story buildings along Sanford Avenue, Kissena Boulevard, and Union Street. Co-ops need board approval, which adds several weeks, and some buildings restrict investor buyers — Tony will tell you on the phone whether your building is one he can buy in.
