You pick the closing date. Title company handles the paperwork. Cash wires same day. Leave anything you do not want behind.

Compare your options
A traditional sale gets you market value but takes months, and only if your house qualifies for buyer financing. Many older or distressed homes don't.

No financing needed. We pay cash.
Banks won't lend on homes with damage, code violations, or major repairs. Some older houses don't sell at all without repairs first.

If your house needs work, the realtor route may not even be an option.
Banks require homes to meet livability standards before approving a mortgage. Older homes with roof issues, foundation problems, mold, electrical or plumbing failures, or major code violations often can't qualify for buyer financing, meaning you either fix it first (out of pocket) or wait for a cash buyer. We are that cash buyer.
The honest math.
A retail listing might fetch a higher headline price, but after 5 to 6 percent commissions, repair costs, months of carrying expenses, and the risk of the deal falling through, your net often lands within a few percent of a cash offer. The cash offer is faster, certain, and as-is. That's why most distressed sellers choose it.
The person you'll work with
I'm Nick York, head of acquisitions at EZ Home Buyers. When you submit your address, your call gets routed to me, not to a national franchise queue, not to a 1-800 number, not to a sales rep who's never seen a house in your neighborhood.
I'll come walk through your property in person. I'll explain how we landed on the offer number. If something doesn't make sense, you ask me directly. If you decide to sell, we close on your timeline.
EZ Home Buyers has been a family-owned operation buying houses across the NY metro since 2000. We're not a tech startup, we're not a franchise, and we're not running ads from somewhere in Texas. We're local, and we close locally.

Currently airing across the NY metro. Same message, same Nick, same direct phone number — the call goes to the same person whether you saw us on TV or found us online.
We start with what your house could sell for after repairs (the after repair value). Then we subtract the cost of repairs, holding costs (taxes, insurance, utilities while we own it), closing costs on both sides of the deal, and a reasonable margin for our work. The remainder is your offer. We walk you through the math line by line so you can see exactly how we got there.
None. No agent commissions, no listing fees, no closing costs from your side. The number on the written offer is the number that hits your account at closing.
Typically 7 to 14 days from when we sign the contract. The bottleneck is the title company, not us. If you need longer to move out, you pick the date.
Tenants in place is fine. We buy occupied properties regularly and handle the tenant relationship from there.
Yes, regularly. We can close before an auction date if there is enough time. The earlier you reach out, the more options we have.
This is an underwater situation. We can sometimes work with your lender on a short sale. Tell us up front so we can plan the right path.
Yes. We offer a 3-day cancellation guarantee, no questions asked.
Single family, 2 to 4 family, condos, vacant land, and mobile homes. We do not buy co-ops.
Opendoor uses an algorithm and won't touch homes that need real work. HomeVestors is a national franchise, you'll talk to whoever owns the local franchise this month. We are family owned, local, and Nick handles every deal personally.
No. Walk away with what you want, leave the rest. We handle clean-out, repairs, and disposal at our cost.
No pressure either way.
Submit your address. Nick will call within 24 hours, walk the property in person, and put a written offer in your hand.
