Have you inherited a house in Bellmore NY and need to sell it for cash?

Did you recently inherit a house in Bellmore, NY on Long Island?  If you're looking to settle an estate quickly, the sooner you sell the house, the sooner you can close probate for the estate and distribute the inheritance.

But, the tricky part about selling an inherited house is that it can take a lot of time...and you often need to invest money in the house for repaits and making the house show ready.  And, of course many inherited houses have been neglected for many years, so it takes a lot of time,effort and money to get the cleaned up as well as ready for the real estate market.

For some, the challenge may be that most of the estate's assets are tied up in the house, and you can't use those assets to fix the house...until the house is sold.  And, of course meanwhile there are other ongoing bills such as real estate taxes.  And, property taxes can be high on Long Island.  In addition, there are other maintenance costs including utilities, managing/cleaning the property (including snow removal, mowing the lawn, raking the leaves, etc.) and vacant home insurance. And, of course if there is still a mortgage on the house, that needs to be paid as well.

Time is definitely money, and the longer it takes you to prepare and sell the house, the more it will cost you (and the less you'll inherit).  In fact, we've found that for the average house on Long Island, it cost almost $20,000 for every 6 months that a house just sits there.  Now, couple that with the average time on market for Long Island which is 6.5 months.  And, then, you'll have to add the time it takes you to prepare the house to clear it out and make it ready to put on the market. That often takes 3 to 6 months (sometimes longer).

People forget this point...waiting does cost you money.

The good news is that there is a faster way.  You can sell your house fast to an investor.  We here at Long Island Cash Home Buyers LLC buy houses for CASH.  The good news is that we can even buy houses "as is," so you don't need to worry about repairing the house...or even cleaning it out. We can do all that for you, if that's what you prefer.  And, since we buy houses for cash, we can close very quickly.  In fact, we can close in as little as 2 to 4 weeks.  Or if you prefer to wait longer, that's fine, too...you can set your closing date.  Because we are buying the house ourself, and with cash, we bypass the whole mortgage process and that makes things run super smoothly and super quickly.
