What People Say About Working With Us
Oren and the Eagle Cash Buyers team were extremely efficient throughout the entire sales process. Oren answered my calls day and night unlike other people that I have worked with before. He was very attentive to all my concerns and completely put my mind at ease. I am really looking forward to working with him again and highly recommend Oren plus his team.
Experienced and trustworthy! It has been great to work with Oren from Eagle Cash Buyers.
Alex Anthony was incredible, responsive, no hidden scams and straightforward. Didn't make any promises until REAL numbers were established, which is extremely respectable. Not only was he efficient, he was fast too. He understood our situation with great empathy and was very personable and patient. If I ever find myself in a similar situation, Alex will be my first call.
My husband and I called Eagle Cash Buyers because our house was on the market for almost a year with no bites. We had moved out of our home and to a different state. We called them, it was very simple. We gave them the information on our home and they made an offer that we could not refuse. They took all my calls and questions, and I had a lot. They answered every call the first time I called. They were knowledgeable and helpful and it was such a pleasure and a blessing that we had a great experience. All the other cash home buyers we had called, one low balled us and they were not straight forward. Also our home was very nice, it had a brand new roof and water heater and heater and the attic was freshly insulated. So your home does not need to be trash for you to sell to them.

Merrick Homeowners We Help
Merrick sellers arrive with very different houses and reasons. Some own a home from the 1920s, some are settling an estate, and some just want to move without a listing.
An Older House That Needs Work
Merrick has houses from many decades, including the 1920s homes of Merrick Gables. Older systems, an old oil tank or an addition without a permit can scare off buyers who rely on bank financing. We buy as-is, so you do not have to fix, clean out or stage the house first.
An Inherited House
If you inherited a Merrick home, perhaps with siblings or other heirs, the house can become a monthly cost while you sort out the paperwork. We can make an offer and work with the estate's attorney on timing. Rules and court steps vary, so confirm the process with your attorney.

A Rental With Tenants in Place
You do not have to wait for a lease to end or ask anyone to leave before you call. We buy houses with tenants in them. An existing lease generally passes to the buyer at closing, and the details depend on the lease terms.

Behind on Payments or Taxes
Missed mortgage payments or unpaid property taxes get more stressful every month. Tell us where things stand and we will explain how an offer could work. Your mortgage payoff and any back taxes or other debts are usually paid from the sale proceeds at closing, as long as the proceeds cover them. If they do not, tell us early so we can talk through the options.
Fire, Water or Storm Damage
A damaged house is hard to list because most buyers want a finished home. We can make an offer on a house with fire, water or storm damage in its current state. Photos and a short description help us give you a number.

Moving on Your Own Schedule
Maybe you are relocating for work or family and cannot manage showings from a distance. You choose the closing date within a normal window. Most sales close in 21 to 42 days, and we can go later if you need more time.
Tell us about the property and you will hear back within one business day. Send it on a weekend and that means the next business day. There is no pressure either way.
Get My Cash OfferWhat the Numbers Actually Look Like - Cash Sale vs. Listing vs. Instant-Offer Programs
Sellers in Merrick are right to ask about the net rather than the headline offer price. On a typical listing, agent commission, closing costs, the New York Transfer Tax and repairs can all come out before you see a dollar. Here is how the three paths compare.
| Cost or Factor | Eagle Cash Buyers (Cash Sale) | Traditional Listing (Agent) | Instant-Offer Program (iBuyer) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Agent Commission | None - $0 | Negotiable, not fixed. For illustration only, a typical 5% to 6% commission on a $905,300 sale is about $45,300 to $54,300 | Usually none, though a service fee often applies |
| Repairs Before Sale | None - we buy as-is | Often paid by you before listing, or given back in price, and buyers' inspections often ask for more | Often deductions for repairs after the inspection |
| New York Transfer Tax | State rate $4.00 per $1,000 (0.40%). Your share is paid from your proceeds, as set out in the purchase agreement and shown on your settlement statement | The same tax applies | The same tax applies |
| Seller Closing Costs | We pay the closing costs, except your share of any transfer tax. Your mortgage payoff, any liens and prorated property taxes are paid from the sale proceeds. | Title, recording and closing fees, plus prorations; amounts vary by contract | A service fee set by each platform |
| Days to Close | Most close in 21 to 42 days, or later if you need more time; you pick the date | Weeks on the market, then weeks more to close, and a financed buyer's loan can still fall through | Set by each platform, and instant-offer programs buy only in some areas |
| Showings and Inspections | No public showings. Walkthroughs and any reinspection are as set out in the agreement | Multiple showings, buyer inspection, possible renegotiation after inspection | Usually a company inspection, often with repair deductions |
| Financing Contingency Risk | No buyer mortgage contingency. Other contract terms still apply | Buyer financing can fall through weeks into the process | Low risk, but platform rules apply |
| Condition Required | We buy as-is - no updates needed | Buyers and agents expect move-in or near-move-in condition for top dollar | Varies - iBuyers often exclude significant distress |
Your actual net depends on your loan payoff, prorations and contract terms. We walk through it with you before you sign anything. Instant-offer terms vary by company and change often.
Skip the listing process. Close on your schedule, in Merrick, with no agent commission and the closing costs covered, apart from your share of any transfer tax.
See What We'd PayAn Example From a Real Call
One homeowner who contacted us was the administrator of an estate where the local court was the executor. The sale required the closing date to be given to the court in advance, and the estate's attorney needed the buyer's signature on the contract so the court could be told. Our acquisition manager explained that Eagle would coordinate with the attorney. Procedures like this vary, so confirm the steps locally.
Three Steps, From First Call to Closing
Sellers ask whether a cash sale is complicated. Usually it is not: we work with New York attorneys and title companies who coordinate the paperwork, and you sign in person or remotely, as the closing attorney or title company arranges. Here is how it runs.
Tell Us About Your Property
Call us at (833) 330-1625 or fill out the form on this page. We ask a few basic questions: the address, the condition and your situation. No obligation, no hard pitch. Tell us what you know about the roof, plumbing, foundation and any past damage. See how our closing process works, start to finish.
Receive Your Cash Offer Within One Business Day
We look at the property, recent comparable sales in Merrick, and the repair costs, which we take off the price rather than asking you to do the work. You get a written cash offer with no agent commission. It shows the price, the contingencies and your estimated net before you sign. To weigh it against a traditional sale, our New York page sets out what a listing costs.
Pick Your Closing Date and Get Paid
Once you accept, we open title with the closing attorney or title company, who handles the title search, the loan payoff and the closing paperwork. The New York Transfer Tax and every other cost are shown on your settlement statement before closing. Most sales close in 21 to 42 days, depending on when the title work clears, or later if you need more time; you pick the date. Anything that could change the price after we agree is written into the agreement, so you can see it before you sign.
Merrick Housing Market - What the Numbers Say
Zillow's Home Value Index put the typical Merrick home at $905,300 in August 2026, 6.2% higher than a year earlier.
A typical-value figure reflects mid-priced homes across the whole community, not the condition of any one house. A house that needs work or has a title issue can sell for less than the typical value, and a traditional sale still means repairs, showings and a buyer who may depend on a mortgage approval.
A cash offer works differently. We look at the house as it stands, and you decide whether the offer and the closing date suit you.

How to Check Out Any Cash Buyer in Merrick
These questions apply to us too. Any buyer should answer them plainly.
- Ask for proof of funds. A real buyer can show a bank letter or statement quickly. Ask us the same question. If we assign the contract, ask the closing buyer for theirs too.
- Ask whether they intend to assign the contract. Our answer: Eagle may purchase the property itself or, if the purchase agreement permits, assign its contractual rights to another investor or purchasing entity. Any assignment right is stated in the agreement before you sign. Assignment itself is not the problem. What matters is whether the right to assign is disclosed, whether the buyer stays accountable under the agreement, and whether the closing structure and deadlines are clear before you sign. Ask any buyer to put those terms in writing.
- Never pay anything up front. No application fee, no inspection fee, no processing fee. If money is moving from you to the buyer before closing, stop.
- Look the company up. Search the buyer's name in the business registry of the state where it was formed, and check that it is active. Eagle Cash Buyers, LLC is registered in Ohio.
- Get the whole offer in writing before you sign, including who pays closing costs and what happens if the buyer walks.

Merrick and Nassau County Seller Questions
Gables Stucco, Estates, Tenants: What Merrick Owners Want to Know
Closing costs, estates, tenants, older houses and mobile homes, answered briefly.
Who pays closing costs when I sell my Merrick house to you?
We pay the closing costs on a sale to us, except your share of any transfer tax, and the purchase agreement sets this out. Eagle does not charge you an agent commission on a direct sale to us. Your mortgage payoff and any liens, delinquent taxes, HOA or association balances, agreed prorations and other seller obligations are deducted from your proceeds when applicable. The closing professional provides a settlement statement showing the charges and credits before closing. Transfer, deed, conveyance or similar taxes vary by state and locality. For a sale in Merrick: state rate $4.00 per $1,000 (0.40%), subject to the purchase agreement.
Do I have to go through probate before I can sell an inherited house in Merrick?
It depends on how title was held and New York law. Property held in the deceased owner's name alone may require probate or another estate procedure before anyone has authority to sign a deed. Property held in a trust or with survivorship rights may pass outside probate. A probate or estate attorney licensed in New York should confirm who has authority and which procedure applies. We can evaluate the property and make an offer while that is being established, but we cannot close until someone has legal authority to sign.
Can I sell my Merrick house with a lien or back taxes on it?
Often, yes. Delinquent property taxes and many recorded liens can be paid from the sale proceeds at closing, provided there is enough equity and the required payoff or release can be obtained. The title search or other closing review will identify items that must be paid, released or otherwise resolved. A disputed lien, an unavailable payoff or debts exceeding the available proceeds can delay or prevent closing unless the issue is resolved or the creditor agrees to another arrangement. Tell us what you know upfront so the closing professional can investigate it early.
Do I still have to make disclosures if I sell my Merrick house as-is?
Selling a property as-is does not automatically eliminate disclosure obligations under applicable federal, state or local law. Tell us what you know about the roof, plumbing, electrical system, foundation, environmental conditions and any past damage or repairs so we can evaluate the property accurately and address known issues in writing before you sign. New York sellers commonly complete a Property Condition Disclosure Statement, which may apply to your sale. A real estate attorney licensed in New York can confirm which disclosures apply.
Will Eagle Cash Buyers buy my house itself, or assign the contract?
Eagle may purchase the property itself or, if the purchase agreement permits, assign its contractual rights to another investor or purchasing entity. Any assignment right is stated in the agreement before you sign. The agreement also states the price, closing date or timeline, contingencies and other material terms. The closing is handled by the attorney or title company used for the transaction.
Can selling my Merrick house to you stop a foreclosure?
A sale may help avoid a foreclosure sale if it closes in time and the proceeds are enough to satisfy the required payoff, or if the lender gives written approval to accept less. In New York, a foreclosure generally goes through the court. We cannot promise to stop or postpone a foreclosure; that depends on the lender or servicer, the court, the timing and whether the transaction closes. Contact us as early as possible and bring every notice you have so we can usually tell you whether our expected timeline appears workable. A HUD-approved housing counselor or an attorney licensed in New York can explain your legal options and deadlines. Our New York page explains how the foreclosure process generally works in the state.
Do you buy mobile homes in Merrick?
Yes, when you own the land the home sits on. We do not buy a mobile home in a park or on a rented lot. If you own both the home and the land, send us the address and we will tell you what we can offer.
My Merrick house has an old oil tank and an addition that was never permitted. Can you still make an offer?
Yes. We buy houses as-is, and an old tank or an unpermitted addition does not automatically end the conversation. Tell us what you know about both, and we will factor them into the offer. Ask your attorney if you have questions about permits.
Can you buy a Merrick house that has tenants living in it?
Yes. You do not need to ask tenants to leave first. An existing lease generally passes to the buyer at closing, depending on its terms, so send us a copy of the lease with your address.
How do you decide on a cash offer for a Merrick house, and why can it be lower than a listing price?
We look at the condition, the repairs we expect, and what similar houses nearby have sold for. A listing price assumes a finished house, an agent's commission and time on the market with showings. A cash offer replaces all of that with a written number within one business day and a closing date you choose.
Is selling your house for cash a good idea?
It depends on what you need. A cash offer from home buyers like us suits sellers who want to skip repairs, showings and a financing delay. If your house is in good shape and you have time, listing may bring a higher price. Ask us for a cash offer and compare it with what a listing could net after repairs and commission.
What stops a house from selling?
Reasons sellers often run into include repairs a buyer does not want to take on, a price above what similar houses sell for, and a buyer whose mortgage falls through. If any of those describes your Merrick house, a cash offer from us does not depend on a buyer's mortgage approval.
Do you buy houses in every part of Merrick?
We buy across Merrick and the surrounding Nassau County communities, with the house as it stands. Send us your address and we will confirm what we can offer.
Do I need an attorney to sell my Merrick house for cash?
Many New York sellers use an attorney for the sale, and we are glad to work with yours. We are not a law firm and cannot give legal advice, so ask your attorney about anything specific to your situation.
Eagle Cash Buyers is not a law firm, title company or tax advisor. This information is general and is not legal, title or tax advice. Laws, procedures and transaction costs vary by state and locality, and the purchase agreement and closing documents control each transaction.
