Why should I sell my house to iBuy Houses Brooklyn?
We are a Brooklyn-based real estate solutions company deeply connected to our community—not a distant corporation or national chain.
Our team possesses unmatched local market knowledge that larger firms can’t replicate. Homeowners choose us because we deliver transparency, speed, and flexibility—and most importantly, we honor every commitment we make. You’ll experience a straightforward process without surprises, because when we make a promise, we keep it.
How quickly can I get a cash offer for my home in Brooklyn?
You can receive a no-obligation cash offer from us within one hour of reviewing your property information.
We assess each Brooklyn home individually, considering its unique condition, neighborhood characteristics, and current market data to provide a competitive and fair offer.
How fast can you close after I accept an offer?
We can complete the closing process in as little as 7-10 days, or adjust to fit your preferred schedule.
Because we transact with our own funds, there are no delays for bank appraisals or mortgage underwriting. We’ll coordinate with you to establish a flexible closing timeline that accommodates your specific situation.
Do I have to pay closing costs, commissions, or hidden fees?
No. When you sell to iBuy Houses Brooklyn, you pay absolutely nothing in closing costs, real estate commissions, or hidden fees.
We cover all transaction-related expenses including title fees, transfer taxes, recording costs, and legal documentation. The cash offer we make is the precise amount you will receive at closing.
What's the difference between you and a real estate agent?
Agents market your property and wait for a buyer. We purchase your home directly—eliminating showings, staging requirements, repairs, and 5-6% agent commissions.
Our transactions are all-cash, and we can complete the sale in as little as 7-10 days—not months. You avoid cleaning, repairs, and all transaction fees.

|---|---|
| Cash in 24 hours | Wait for buyer offers |
| Close in 10 days | Often 60+ days |
| No repairs, commissions or fees | 6% agent commission |
| Sell as-is | Must repair and stage |
Do you inspect the property?
We don’t conduct traditional inspections or include inspection contingencies that can delay sales. There are no third-party inspectors, detailed reports, or requests for repairs.
We simply perform a brief, respectful walk-through to understand the property’s general condition and assess potential renovation scope.
No matter what we discover during our visit, you’ll never be asked to make any repairs. We purchase Brooklyn houses as-is, and all necessary repairs or cleanup become our responsibility after closing.
What do you mean by Cash?
When we say “cash,” we mean we use our own capital to purchase your property directly—no bank financing, no loans, and no waiting for mortgage approvals.
This allows us to present same-day offers and complete transactions in as little as 7–10 days. You won’t encounter financing contingencies, underwriting delays, or appraisal complications that can disrupt a sale. When we say cash, we mean immediate funds—transferred directly from us to you.
What do you mean by "As-Is"
As-is” means you can sell your property exactly as it stands today.
No need for repairs, cleaning, updates, junk removal, or hauling. We handle everything—no matter the property’s condition—after the closing.
Can I sell my house if I inherited it or it’s in probate?
Yes, we regularly help Brooklyn homeowners sell inherited properties, estate homes, and houses in probate.
Even if the title hasn’t formally transferred or you’re working with an attorney, we can guide you through the process and purchase your inherited property quickly and efficiently.
What if my Brooklyn house is in poor condition, vacant, or has code violations?
We purchase Brooklyn properties in any condition. It makes no difference if the home has been vacant for years, has significant damage, or has open violations from the NYC Department of Buildings.
We specialize in buying distressed properties directly from homeowners. You won’t need to clean, make repairs, or resolve violations before selling.
Can I sell my house in Brooklyn if it still has tenants?
Yes, we purchase homes with tenants in place.
Whether your tenants are paying on time, behind on rent, or involved in eviction proceedings, we can still purchase the property. We acquire occupied rentals, multi-family homes, duplexes, and apartment buildings throughout Brooklyn. You won’t need to handle evictions or tenant disputes—we manage everything after the sale is complete.
