A simple cash sale for any house in Rochester.

Rochester is its own kind of market. The economy reshaped itself after Kodak and Xerox pulled back, which left the area with a lot of older, affordable housing and a steady supply of homes that need work. The housing stock here is some of the oldest in the country, the property-tax rates in Monroe County are among the highest anywhere, and the universities keep a constant churn of people moving in and out. Two things wear on a lot of Rochester houses: age and weather. Long snowy winters and freeze-thaw cycles crack foundations, heave driveways, and burst pipes, and an old house with that kind of damage will scare off a buyer who needs a mortgage, because the lender will not fund a loan on a house with those problems.

We are cash buyers, so none of that stops us. We buy Rochester homes in any condition, pay cash, and close on your schedule. No listing, no showings, no waiting on a buyer's loan. We see a lot of inherited and vacant homes here where the heirs live out of state and just want it handled, and we close those remotely so nobody has to fly back. You get a written offer in 24 hours and you decide what happens next. Property taxes here are high, so the sooner you sell, the sooner that monthly drain stops.

From city neighborhoods to the suburbs.

We buy houses all across Greater Rochester, including:

19th Ward • Beechwood • Park Avenue • South Wedge • Corn Hill • Maplewood • Charlotte • Irondequoit • Greece • Henrietta • Gates • Brighton • Webster • Penfield • Pittsford • Chili • Fairport • Spencerport • Hilton • and every ZIP across Monroe County.

Whatever the situation, we have bought through it.

  • Inherited a house or going through probate as an out-of-state heir. A lot of Rochester homes end up vacant in the hands of heirs who live somewhere else. We buy estate properties and close the whole thing remotely with the title company and your attorney.
  • A vacant house draining you. Empty homes get hit hard by Rochester winters and rack up taxes and insurance every month. We buy them as-is so you can stop carrying it.
  • Behind on very high property taxes. Monroe County tax bills are among the steepest in the country. Reach out and any unpaid taxes or liens come out of the sale at closing.
  • Facing foreclosure. New York runs a slow judicial foreclosure, so you usually have more time than you think. Reach out early and we can often close before a judgment is entered.
  • Divorce or job relocation. A university or hospital move can happen fast. A private cash sale splits the asset cleanly with no public listing.
  • Tired of being a landlord or a house that needs work. Winter freeze-thaw cracks, an old roof, fire damage, or a full cleanout. We buy occupied rentals and rough houses as-is, no eviction needed first.

Straight answers for Rochester sellers.

Do you buy houses across all of Monroe County?
Yes. We buy across the whole Rochester area, from city neighborhoods like the 19th Ward, Beechwood, Park Avenue, and the South Wedge to suburbs like Irondequoit, Greece, Henrietta, Gates, Brighton, and Webster, plus every town across Monroe County.
I inherited a Rochester home and live out of state. Can you still buy it?
Yes. A lot of Rochester homes pass to heirs who live somewhere else, and a vacant inherited house is exactly what we buy. We coordinate the whole closing remotely with the title company and your attorney, so you do not have to fly back. You sign and the proceeds wire to you.
I am behind on my very high Rochester property taxes. Can you buy it?
Yes. Monroe County carries some of the highest property-tax rates in the country, and falling behind is common. Any unpaid property taxes or tax liens come out of the sale proceeds at closing through the title company. You do not have to clear them first.
My Rochester house has winter damage. Will you still buy it?
Yes. Rochester winters are long, and freeze-thaw cycles crack foundations, heave driveways, and burst pipes. A house with snow and ice damage scares off financed buyers, but it does not stop us. We buy as-is and factor the repair into a fair cash offer.
New York foreclosure is slow. Does that change anything?
New York runs a judicial foreclosure, one of the slowest in the country, so there is no first-Tuesday auction the way some states have. You usually have more time than you think, but the case still moves and the fees pile up. Reach out early and we can often close before a judgment is entered.
How fast can you close on a house in Rochester?
As few as 7 days when title is clean. We close at a licensed Rochester-area title company. If you need more time to move, you pick a later date. The timeline is yours.

We also buy across New York, including Buffalo. See all of New York or read our guide on how to sell your house fast.
