Can I sell my Troy property without flying back to NJ or NY?
Yes. Remote notarization is fully recognized in NJ and NY. You sign with a notary in your home state, the documents are video-witnessed by a remote notary, and the deed records normally.

The kind of two family property Tony has bought in Troy.
Rensselaer County Market Context
Rensselaer County is Troy — 1830s-1890s brownstones and row houses from its iron and collar-factory days, RPI and Russell Sage rentals, and Lansingburgh's 1900s two-families — plus the City of Rensselaer's Amtrak-station blocks, East Greenbush and North Greenbush suburbs, and hill-town farmhouses toward Grafton and Berlin. Regeneron's Rensselaer campus, RPI, and state jobs across the river drive demand.
Rensselaer effective rates run roughly 2.6-3.3% of full value; Troy city rates are the high end, suburban East Greenbush lower.

How Sell from Out of State Works in Troy
Common situations Tony handles for out-of-state owners with Troy properties: an inherited family home thousands of miles from where the heir now lives, a former primary residence after a job relocation, a rental property the owner has been managing remotely for years and is done with, a divorce sale where one spouse already moved out of state, and an investment property the owner has never lived in.
Sections of Troy Tony Buys In
Troy brick row houses and multi-families along the Hudson are Tony purchases. Many haven't been updated since the mid-1900s — Tony buys them anyway. Downtown and Washington Park are 1840s–1890s brick rowhouses and Italianate townhouses, many cut into apartments; North Central and Lansingburgh are 1870s–1920s brick and frame two- and three-family flats with high vacancy on some blocks; South Troy is workers' housing from the ironworks era; and the Eastside, Sycaway, and Frear Park are 1920s–50s colonials, capes, and RPI-area rentals on the hill.

Selling a House in Troy: What Tony Already Knows
Troy sellers call Tony with a Lansingburgh or North Central three-family a parent bought in 1970 that has a tenant in City Court, a City codes order, and back taxes that Rensselaer County will eventually auction. Others are heirs to a Sycaway cape who now live in Florida, or landlords near RPI worn down by student turnover and inspections. Some own a downtown rowhouse they started renovating during the last River Street boom and couldn't finish. Tony buys the three-family occupied, the cape full of belongings, and the half-done rowhouse with its open permits — one number on the phone, closing on your date.

What a Troy closing actually involves
Troy sellers pay the 0.4% New York State transfer tax; Tony nets it into his offer. Rensselaer County closings run on an updated abstract of title, deeds record with the Rensselaer County Clerk in Troy, and estates go through Rensselaer County Surrogate's Court. Delinquent taxes lead to the County's annual tax-foreclosure auction or to the Troy Community Land Bank — a cash closing that pays the arrears stops that. City of Troy codes violations and rental-registry issues transfer to Tony at closing, and historic-district rowhouses carry exterior-work rules that affect his renovation, not your sale.
How a Cash Offer on a Troy 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 Troy Sellers
How does the cash from selling my Troy property reach me out of state?
Wire transfer to your home-state bank account on the closing date. Same day the deed records, the funds hit.
What if I haven't seen my Troy property in years?
That's most of Tony's out-of-state purchases. Tony's offer is based on public records, recent Troy comps, and your description. Whatever condition the property is in, the offer accounts for it.
Can my power of attorney sign for me?
Yes. POA documents are accepted at closing. Many out-of-state Troy sellers have a family member or attorney sign as POA for convenience.
What about back property taxes accumulated while I was away?
Tony's title company pays them at closing from the proceeds. Same with code violations, water/sewer arrears, or any other municipal liens.
Does Tony buy in Lansingburgh and North Central Troy as well as downtown and the Eastside?
Yes — all of Troy, ZIPs 12180 and 12182. Flats in Lansingburgh and North Central, rowhouses downtown and around Washington Park, workers' houses in South Troy, and colonials and capes on the Eastside, in Sycaway, and around Frear Park. Vacant, occupied, or boarded. One call with the address gets you a number.
My Troy three-family has a City codes violation and a tenant who won't pay. Will Tony buy it?
Yes, with the tenant in place and the violation open. Troy Code Enforcement orders, rental-registry issues, and the eviction in Troy City Court transfer to Tony at closing. You don't need to make the repairs or finish the eviction. Tell him the units, the rents, and what was cited, and he gives you one number.
My Troy house is on the Rensselaer County tax-foreclosure auction list. Can Tony close in time?
Usually, if the auction hasn't happened. Tony's title company orders the city, county, and school tax payoffs, the arrears come out of the proceeds at closing, and his cash closing in about a week typically beats the sale date. Whatever equity remains goes to you rather than being lost at the auction. Call as soon as the notice arrives.
I inherited a Troy house and live in Florida. Can Tony buy it without me coming north?
Yes. Once Rensselaer County Surrogate's Court issues letters, Tony signs a contract with the executor or administrator, you sign the deed with a Florida notary, and your proceeds are wired. Tony buys the house with everything still inside, so you don't have to fly up in February to clean out a lifetime of belongings.
