Selling a parent's house is hard. The belongings, the memories, the siblings who all want different things. There's no rush to sort through their things. You don't have to do that to move forward. Take what's sentimental, leave the rest, walk.
When mom or dad passes, the house in Peekskill becomes a problem. Maybe siblings can't agree. Maybe nobody wants to spend a year cleaning it out. Maybe Westchester County property taxes are due and nobody's paying. Tony buys it now, in any state of affairs.
The kind of cape property Tony has bought in Peekskill.
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.

When multiple heirs are involved on a Peekskill house, Tony makes one offer, sends the funds to the title company, and the title company splits proceeds per the estate documents or the heirs' agreement. No heir has to drive to the closing — most sign remotely. Even heirs who haven't spoken in years can close without seeing each other.
Peekskill is a hill city: Victorian frames and brick rowhouses on the slopes above downtown and the river, 1900–1930 two- and three-families along Hudson and Washington Streets, brick apartment buildings near Main Street, 1950s–60s capes and ranches in the north end, and condos and townhouses on the Chapel Hill side. It has some of the oldest and most affordable housing in northern Westchester, and much of the rental stock is small buildings owned by local landlords.
Peekskill owners who call Tony are landlords done with a three-family on Hudson Avenue — a tenant in Housing Court, a city code violation, and a 1920s roof — or heirs to a Victorian on the hill that a parent kept for fifty years and never updated, with the estate now in White Plains. Others own a condo whose association fees keep rising, or bought a downtown fixer during the last boom and ran out of money. Tony buys the three-family occupied, the Victorian full of belongings, and the half-finished renovation as it sits — one number on the phone, closing on your date.
Peekskill has 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 and record at the Westchester County Clerk in White Plains, and Westchester Surrogate's Court there handles Peekskill estates. Riverfront and low-lying blocks near Peekskill Bay are in FEMA flood zones, which matter to a lender and not to a cash buyer; older frame houses predate lead-paint rules a bank inspector would raise.
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.

Contact
Drop your number and Tony reaches out about your Peekskill property within an hour.
In most cases, yes. The executor or administrator (with court authority) can sign. Tony's title company handles the documentation. Many Peekskill inherited deals close before probate fully concludes.
Tony makes one offer; the title company splits proceeds per the estate documents or your written agreement. Heirs can be in different states, different countries — sign remotely with a notary or e-sign service. Westchester County title companies handle this routinely.
Yes. Take what's sentimental — photo albums, jewelry, anything that matters. Leave the rest. Tony's crew clears the property after closing. You don't have to spend weekends sorting through a lifetime of stuff.
Tony's title company pays them at closing out of the proceeds. Same with utility bills, HOA dues, lien notices. You walk away clean.
If the estate is straightforward, often no. If it's contested, complex, or has out-of-state assets, an attorney is wise. Tony works alongside whatever attorney you have or refers you to Peekskill-area probate attorneys when needed.
Yes — all of ZIP 10566. Victorians and rowhouses on the hill, two- and three-families along Hudson and Washington Streets, apartment buildings downtown, capes and ranches in the north end, and condos on Chapel Hill and the waterfront. One call with the address gets you a number.
The seller, by custom — Peekskill's 1% city tax plus the 0.4% state tax. Tony accounts for both when he quotes your number, so the figure you hear on the phone is what to expect at closing, with no commission and no closing costs taken out on top.
Yes, with the tenant in place and the violation open. Peekskill code-enforcement orders and the Housing Court case 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.
Yes. Open permits, a gutted kitchen, and a contractor's lien on title are all things Tony has bought through. Liens get paid from the proceeds at closing and the open permits become his to close out. He prices the house on what's left to do, not on what you already spent, and closes on your schedule.
