Cash home buyers in Gloversville, NY
Are you dealing with a stressful property off Kingsboro Avenue, near downtown on North Main Street, or out on the edge of the city? Skip the repairs, the realtor commissions, and the waiting. We are local Fulton County general contractors and investors ready to make a fair cash offer on your house this week.
If you are looking to sell your house in Gloversville, your mailbox is probably full of postcards from “cash buyers.” Here is the reality: most of those people live in Texas or Florida. They just want to lock your house up in a contract and sell it to a real, local buyer like us.
At 518.properties, we cut out the middleman. We are based right here in the Mohawk Valley. Because we own 518 Renovations and 518 Red Dragon HVAC, we know the local housing stock inside and out—from the old glove-era homes and multi-families near downtown to the properties out toward the Great Sacandaga Lake.
We have our own capital, our own crews, and a local portfolio of 35 rental properties. When we make you a cash offer, we actually have the money to close at a local Fulton County title company.
We aren’t afraid of a mess, and we don’t judge. As general contractors, we buy houses in situations that scare away standard homebuyers.
Upstate winters are brutal. If the roof is caving in, the foundation is bowing, or the boiler is dead, do not pay out of pocket to fix it. Because we own our own HVAC and remodeling companies, we can fix these issues at cost. We buy the property exactly as it sits.
Falling behind on payments happens to good people. If the bank is threatening foreclosure, speed is your only defense. We can close fast enough to pay off the bank, save your credit, and put cash in your pocket.
With 35 doors in our own portfolio, we speak your language. We know how frustrating NY State eviction laws can be. If you have tenants who are destroying the property or refusing to pay, you do not have to evict them to sell to us. We will buy the house with the problem tenants still inside and handle the legal headache ourselves.
Dealing with the Fulton County Surrogate's Court is stressful enough without having to clean out 40 years of belongings. Take the family keepsakes you want, and leave the rest of the junk in the house. We handle the entire cleanout with our crews.
Standard real estate wholesalers get your house under contract, and then they have to scramble to find a contractor to tell them how much repairs will cost. That wastes weeks of your time and usually results in them dropping their price at the last minute.
We are the contractors.
When we do a walkthrough of your Gloversville property, we do the estimate on the spot. We know exactly what lumber, plumbing, labor, and a new furnace cost. This means:
| Feature | Selling Direct to 518.properties | Listing with a Realtor |
|---|---|---|
| Realtor commissions | None ($0) | 6% of sale price |
| Closing costs | We pay them | Seller pays ~2% |
| Who pays for repairs? | We do. Sell 100% as-is. | You do (must be show-ready) |
| Cleanout required? | No. Leave unwanted items. | Yes. Must be perfectly clean. |
| Closing timeline | As little as 7 to 14 days | 60 to 120+ days average |
| Appraisal/bank risk | None. We pay cash. | High risk of buyer loans failing |
Absolutely not. You can leave food in the fridge, old furniture in the living room, and trash in the garage. Our 518 Renovations crew will bring a dumpster and handle it all.
Because we use our own cash and don't rely on bank financing, we can often close in as little as 7 to 14 days, or on whatever timeline works best for your situation.
No, we are not acting as your real estate agent. We are the direct buyer. We buy the house, our crews fix it up, and we either add it to our rental portfolio or sell it later.
Since we own 518 Red Dragon HVAC, broken plumbing and dead heating systems are our specialty. We actively look for properties with these issues because traditional buyers can't get bank loans for them.
Stop stressing over a property that is draining your bank account and your energy. Call the local guys who can actually get the job done.
Call us today at 518.348.9000 or fill out the form to get your no-obligation cash offer.
Serving Gloversville, Johnstown, and all of Fulton County.
