Sell Your New City House Fast. Any Condition, Repairs Left Undone.

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 New City: state rate $4.00 per $1,000 (0.40%), subject to the purchase agreement.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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 the address and we will look at it.

Attorneys are customary at New York closings, and a title company runs the title search. We cannot give legal advice, so ask a New York real estate attorney whether you need one for your own sale. Most of our sales close in 21 to 42 days, or later if you need more time.

No. We buy as-is, so you can leave repairs undone and take what you want. Anything you leave is agreed in the contract, so tell us about it up front.

Yes. The lease generally passes to the buyer at closing, and what that means depends on the lease terms. Send us a copy of the lease and the rent details with the address.

We look at the condition, the location and what comparable houses have sold for, then subtract what the work would cost. You get the number in writing within one business day, with no obligation to accept.

It depends on what matters most to you. A cash offer suits a seller who wants a set closing date, no repairs and no showings. A listing may bring a higher price if the house is in good shape and you can wait. Compare both, including the agent's commission, before you decide.

Condition, price and timing are the usual causes. A house that needs repairs can sit on the market, and so can one priced above what buyers will pay. If you do not want to wait or fix things up, a cash buyer is one alternative to a listing.

Often yes, because you choose the closing date within what the contract allows. Tell us when you need to be out. We can set the closing date around your move.
