Can Tony close before my Mount Vernon divorce decree deadline?
Almost always. Tony's standard close is 7-14 days. If the decree gives 30 or 60 days, that's plenty of room.
Court-ordered sale on a Westchester County house? Tony closes in 7 to 14 days, the title company splits proceeds per the divorce decree, and you don't have to talk to your ex about the price. No agent, no showings, no negotiating with each other.
Divorce is hard enough without a house dragging it out. The agent showings on weekends. The arguments over price reductions. The buyer who backs out. Tony shortens the entire thing to one phone call and a 7-day close. You sell, the title company splits the money per the decree, you both walk.
Westchester County divorce decrees often set a deadline for the marital home sale. Listing with an agent takes 3-6 months and exposes both spouses to repeated buyer back-and-forth. Tony closes a Mount Vernon divorce sale in 7-14 days, gives both spouses certainty, and removes the house from the divorce timeline.

The kind of ranch property Tony has bought in Mount Vernon.
Westchester County is a wealthy suburb of NYC: Yonkers, Mount Vernon, New Rochelle, White Plains, Scarsdale, Bronxville. Older multi-family stock and inherited estates are common.
Westchester County has among the highest property taxes in the country, often 2.0-3.0% on high-value properties.

Many Westchester County divorce sellers ask whether one spouse can sell without the other's signature. Almost never — both names on the deed means both signatures at closing. But the work of arriving at "yes" is much shorter on a Tony cash sale. There's no listing strategy, no staging, no countering buyer offers, no inspection negotiation. One number is on the table; both spouses say yes or no.
Mount Vernon is two cities divided by the Metro-North tracks. The north side — Fleetwood, Chester Heights, Oakwood Heights — is six-story pre-war co-ops and rentals along Gramatan Avenue and 1920s–30s Tudors and colonials on the hills. The south side (10550) is older frame two- and three-families, brick rowhouses, and small walk-ups, with a large Black and Caribbean homeowner community and some of the oldest housing in Westchester. Many south-side houses have been in one family for fifty years.
Mount Vernon sellers call Tony with a south-side two-family inherited from a parent, a tenant who hasn't paid since the pandemic, and a city violation for a basement apartment. Others are dealing with Mount Vernon's well-known sewer and water-billing problems, a tax bill that has climbed every year, or a Fleetwood co-op they inherited and can't get through the board. Some are simply elderly owners ready to move near their kids in Georgia or the Carolinas without fixing anything first. Tony buys occupied, as-is, with the violations and the belongings, and gives one number on the phone that closes on your date.
Mount Vernon charges its own city transfer tax of 1%, paid by the seller on top of the 0.4% New York State transfer tax; Tony nets both into his offer. Closings use attorneys on both sides, record at the Westchester County Clerk in White Plains, and estates run through Westchester Surrogate's Court there. Mount Vernon buildings of six or more units may be under ETPA rent stabilization, which transfers with the property, and Fleetwood co-ops require board approval of the buyer.
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.

Almost always. Tony's standard close is 7-14 days. If the decree gives 30 or 60 days, that's plenty of room.
Tony's offer is fair-market cash. Many spouses use Tony's number as the neutral fact that resolves the dispute. If one spouse refuses to sign, that's a court issue, not Tony's.
Yes. The title company follows the decree's instructions exactly. Both spouses get separate wires per the agreed split.
No. NJ and NY remote notarization makes it routine to sign separately. Most Mount Vernon divorce sellers don't see each other through the entire closing.
Tony buys it occupied if the spouses agree. Or the move-out can be timed to the closing date. Both work.
Yes — all three ZIPs, 10550, 10552, and 10553. Frame two- and three-families and brick rows south of the tracks, Tudors and colonials in Chester Heights and Oakwood Heights, and co-ops and pre-war apartments in Fleetwood. Condition and section don't decide whether he'll buy; they decide the number. One call with the address gets you that number.
The seller, by custom — Mount Vernon's 1% city tax plus the 0.4% state transfer tax. Tony builds both into the net number he quotes on the phone, so what you hear is what you should expect at the table, with no commission and no closing costs taken out on top.
Yes, with the basement tenant in place or empty. Mount Vernon Buildings Department violations, unpaid water and sewer bills, and a Housing Court case all transfer or get paid from the proceeds at closing. You don't have to remove the kitchen or finish the eviction. Tell Tony what was cited, and he'll give you one number.
As soon as Westchester Surrogate's Court issues letters to the executor or administrator, Tony signs a contract and closes once title is clear — often within a week or two. Heirs out of state sign with a local notary and their shares are wired. If letters haven't issued yet, Tony's attorney can tell you what the court still needs, and the offer waits.
