Live in California, Florida, or anywhere else, but own a property in Steuben County? Tony makes a cash offer over the phone and closes the entire New York transaction remotely. You sign with a notary in your home state and never set foot in Wheeler.
Owning a property thousands of miles away wears on you. Property taxes you can't easily pay. Code letters from a town you don't visit. Tenants or family members or strangers sending updates that don't add up. The flight back to fix one thing turns into three flights. Tony has closed dozens of remote sales for owners living out of state. You don't fly back. Tony handles everything from this end.
Distance is the silent killer of inherited and absentee properties in Steuben County. The longer you own a property you can't easily check on, the worse it gets — taxes pile up, maintenance gets deferred, tenants test the limits. Tony stops the bleed with a cash close that doesn't require you to travel.
The kind of two family property Tony has bought in Wheeler.
Steuben County is Corning — Corning Inc.'s headquarters and the 1880s-1920s Southside and Northside homes its workers built — plus Bath's village stock and VA medical center, Hornell's Alstom railcar-plant neighborhoods, and Keuka Lake's west shore at Hammondsport. Corning Inc. is the county's economy; Hornell and Bath prices are among the lowest in the Southern Tier.
Steuben effective rates run roughly 2.6-3.3% of full value; Hornell and Bath carry the highest rates, Keuka lakefront the highest absolute bills.

Steuben County remote notarization is fully recognized as of 2022 (NJ) and 2022 (NY). Out-of-state sellers can sign closing documents with a notary in their home state, video-witnessed by a remote notary, and the deed records normally. Tony's title company has handled this for sellers in 20+ states.
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.
