How are back property taxes paid when I sell to Tony?
The title company pays them at closing out of the sale proceeds. You don't bring a check. The county gets paid, the lien is released, and the Troy property transfers free and clear.
Behind on Property Taxes in Troy, NY? Tony Buys Your House for Cash
Owe back property taxes in Rensselaer County? Tony's title company pays them off at closing — out of the cash proceeds. You don't bring a check. The New York tax-foreclosure clock stops the day Tony closes.
Falling behind on property taxes happens to good people during hard years. Medical bills. Job loss. A spouse passing. Then the letters from the county pile up and the next tax bill comes before the last one is paid. You're not stuck. Tony has bought hundreds of Troy-area properties with back taxes, and most sellers walk away with cash on top of the payoff.
Rensselaer County tax foreclosures move slower than mortgage foreclosures, but the timeline is real. Once the county certifies your tax delinquency, the property eventually goes to a tax-lien sale or county auction. Tony stops it by paying the taxes at closing.
- Title company pays back taxes at closing — you bring nothing

- Tax-foreclosure clock stops the day Tony closes
- Most sellers walk away with cash above the payoff
- 7-day close, faster if the tax-lien sale is approaching

How Behind on Property Taxes Works in Troy
Many Troy sellers behind on taxes don't realize they likely have equity above the back-tax balance. A house worth $300K with $25K in back taxes still has $275K of equity (minus any mortgage). Tony's offer captures that for you. Letting it go to tax-lien sale typically zeroes that out.

Sellers Tony Has Helped
Names withheld for seller privacy. Each story is a real type of transaction Tony has closed.
“Tony bought my late mother's house in seven days. We didn't have to clean a thing — she'd been there 40 years and the house showed it. He took it just like she left it. Cash in our hand at the title office.”
— L.J., Newark, NJ
Inherited house
“Tenant hadn't paid in five months and I couldn't get her out. Tony bought the building with her still in it. Closed in nine days. I never even told her I was selling.”
— M.T., Brooklyn, NY
Tired landlord
“Honest man. Said what he meant, paid what he said. I left thirty years of stuff in that house — clothes, furniture, my dad's tool collection. Tony didn't blink. Walked away with the cash and never looked back.”

Questions From Troy Sellers
What if I owe water/sewer arrears too?
Same path. Tony's title company pays municipal water/sewer liens at closing alongside the back taxes. All in one transaction.
Can Tony close before the Troy tax-lien sale?
In most cases, yes. As long as the lien sale isn't in the next 5-7 days, Tony's standard close fits inside the window.
Will I get any cash if the Troy house has back taxes and a mortgage?
Depends on equity. Tony's offer pays mortgage, then back taxes, then liens. Anything left is yours. On most NJ/NY properties with even 10% equity, sellers walk away with thousands.
What if the county already started tax-lien proceedings?
Tony has bought properties mid-proceeding. Until the lien actually sells at auction, the seller can still sell the house. Move fast.
