How selling to us works in Elmont
- 1
You tell us about the house
An address in 11003 and a rough idea of condition. Two minutes on the phone or the form. We do not need photographs, a clean house, or anything fixed first.
- 2
We come and look at it
One visit, one person, usually under half an hour. On a cape cod or ranch of the age most of Elmont was built, we are mainly looking at the roof, the boiler and the electric rather than the kitchen.
- 3
You get a number in writing
Within 24 hours, as a written figure rather than a range or a "starting around". Take it to a Nassau County agent for a second opinion if you want to. On a house already in showable condition, listing may well beat us, and we would rather you knew that.
- 4
You pick the closing date
Fast if you need fast, or months out if you are waiting on probate, a tenant, or somewhere to move to. Either way you skip the 88 to 103 days a listed Elmont house spends finding a buyer and then waiting on that buyer's mortgage.
We buy Elmont houses in any condition
You do not need to fix anything, clean anything, or explain anything. The condition changes the number, never whether we are interested. These are things we have bought around already.
- Needs a new roof
- Boiler or heat out
- Knob-and-tube wiring
- Fire or smoke damage
- Water damage or mold
- Foundation movement
- Full of belongings
- Vacant for years
- Tenants still in it
- Open code violations
- Buried oil tank
- Failed cesspool
How we arrive at a number
The honest answer on a house is that we work backwards from what it is worth once it is fixed, subtract what fixing it costs, and subtract what we need to make for the risk of being wrong about either. There is no secret to it and no algorithm.
- What it is worth repaired. Not the Elmont median of $725,000 on its own, but what houses like yours on your street actually closed at recently.
- What the work costs. Roof, boiler, electric, the kitchen and bath. In Elmont the stock is largely cape cod and ranch, and on houses that age the mechanicals are usually the expensive part rather than the cosmetics.
- How long we will hold it. The median Elmont house goes under contract in about 43 days once it is showable, then waits 45 to 60 days more on the buyer's lender. Ours has to get to showable first, and we carry taxes and insurance across the whole of it.
- What we are wrong about. Opening a wall finds things. That risk is priced in, which is a large part of why a cash number sits below a retail number.
Why the number works for us and not for you
This is the part most cash buyers are vague about, so here it is plainly. We run millions of dollars of construction a year. That volume buys materials at contractor pricing and keeps the same crews working year round, which means the identical renovation costs us roughly half what a homeowner would pay to have it done.
That gap is the business. It is also why doing the work yourself before selling so rarely pays: you would be buying the same roof and the same boiler at retail, then hoping the market hands it back to you at resale. It usually does not. We are not making money because you sold cheaply. We are making it because we build cheaply.
And if the number does not work for you, say so. We would rather hear that than talk anyone into anything. We will look at your situation and tell you honestly what we think your options are, including the ones that do not involve us. Plenty of people are better off listing with an agent, and when you are one of them we will say so rather than let you find out later.
What the two paths cost in Elmont
Work it against Elmont's own numbers. The median sale here is $725,000. A 5% commission on that is $36,250, and seller closing costs of about 2% add roughly $14,500. Those are costs we can cover on our side. That is $50,750 gone before anyone counts the repairs it took to get the house listable.
There are two waits in a listed sale and people usually only count the first. In Elmont the median house takes about 43 days to go from listed to a signed contract. Then it waits again, typically 45 to 60 days, while the buyer's lender orders an appraisal and underwrites the loan. Call it 88 to 103 days from sign to keys, assuming nothing goes wrong.
The part worth understanding is what a signed contract actually guarantees, which is less than most sellers assume. A retail buyer with a mortgage contingency can walk away right up to the end. If they do not qualify, if the appraisal comes in under the price, if they change their mind and let the financing lapse. A share of deals die exactly there, after months of waiting, and the house goes back on the market with time on it. We are not borrowing anything, so there is no lender to satisfy, no appraisal to come in low and no contingency to exercise.
| Listing with an agent | Selling to us | |
|---|---|---|
| Sale price | $725,000 (Elmont median) | Our written offer |
| Commission | −$36,250 | None |
| Seller closing costs | −$14,500 | We can cover them |
| Repairs before listing | Out of pocket | None |
| Cleanout | Yours | Ours |
| Showings | Until it sells | One visit |
| Listed to signed contract | 43 days (Elmont median, once listable) | 24 hours to a written offer |
| Contract to closing | 45 to 60 days (waiting on the buyer's lender) | A date you choose |
| Total wait | 88 to 103 days if nothing falls through | Yours to set |
| Can the buyer walk? | Yes (mortgage contingency runs to the end) | No financing to fall through |
| Before repairs and carrying | $674,250 | The number we put in writing |
The listing column assumes a 5% commission and seller closing costs of about 2%. Both vary. We have not subtracted repairs or the cost of carrying the house while it sits, because those depend on the property. A house in good condition listed with a good agent can absolutely beat a cash offer, and we will say so if that is your situation.
What this looks like in Elmont specifically
Elmont is roughly 37,296 people in Nassau County, ZIP 11003, and the housing stock is mostly cape cod, ranch, multi-family. Around Belmont Park and UBS Arena, most of it is old enough that the mechanicals are on their second or third life. The Elmont-UBS Arena stop pulls buyers who commute, which supports the good houses and does very little for the ones that need a roof. We know which of these streets take water, where the older systems fail first, and what the Elmont Union Free School District does to a resale price.
The median has slipped 1.35% year over year as of 2026-05. It is a small move, but a softening market punishes the houses that need work first - buyers with choices do not choose the project. A $725,000 median puts Elmont in the band where buyers are stretching to afford the house and have nothing left for the roof. That is precisely the buyer who walks away from a property needing work, and it is why condition matters more here than the price alone suggests. The median house goes under contract in about 43 days, which is not slow - but it describes houses that were already showable on day one.
What sellers say
All 69 reviews →What sets them apart is their fair and transparent approach. No brokerage fees, no need for showings with a realtor, and when they say they buy the property as-is, they truly buy as-is.
We just had an excellent experience with them and we highly recommend them. They went above and beyond. Closing was smooth sailing and they did everything we needed them to do.
Common questions
Do you actually buy in Elmont, or is this a national site?
Nassau and Suffolk County are the only places we buy, and we have no plans to expand past Long Island. A buyer who operates in fifty states does not know what your street is worth.
Is there any obligation?
None. The visit is free, the written offer is free, and if you say no we do not call you again. There is no follow-up campaign.
Do I need to repair or clean anything first?
No. Take what you want out of the house and leave everything else where it is, including furniture. Clearing it is our cost.
Will you pay what my house is worth?
We pay below what a fully renovated house on your street sells for, because we are buying it unrenovated and carrying it while it is fixed. We will show you exactly how we got to the number, and if listing with an agent would net you more we will tell you that instead.
How fast can you close?
Close fast, or on your timeline. Some people need three weeks. Some are waiting on probate or a tenant and need three months. The closing date is a term you set, not something a lender dictates.
