What kinds of houses does Tony buy in Groton?
Single-families, two-families, three-families, four-families, condos, townhomes, mobile homes, vacant lots with tear-down structures. Any property type in Groton — Tony buys it.
"We buy houses" is what every flyer in Groton says. Tony actually does it — and pays cash, sight-unseen, on any house in Tompkins County, New York. No bait, no switch, no lowball after a "second look."

The kind of two family property Tony has bought in Groton.
Tompkins County is Ithaca — Cornell University and Ithaca College rentals in Collegetown and Fall Creek, 1880s-1920s homes on the hills, and Cayuga Lake's south end — plus Trumansburg, Dryden, Lansing, and Groton villages and farmhouses. Cornell's payroll makes this the tightest and most expensive market in upstate outside the Capital Region.
Tompkins effective rates run roughly 2.2-2.8% of full value, but Ithaca's high values and heavy school levy mean bills well above the rest of the Southern Tier; a large share of the city is tax-exempt Cornell land.

Groton property owners call Tony from every kind of situation: estate sales, divorces, foreclosures, tired-landlord exits, condemnation notices from the Tompkins County town hall. Tony's offer is based on the property and the situation — not on what kind of seller "deserves" what.
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.
