What this looks like in Huntington specifically
Huntington is roughly 19,474 people in Suffolk County, ZIP 11743, and the housing stock is mostly victorian, colonial, tudor. Around Heckscher Museum of Art and Paramount Theater, most of it is old enough that the mechanicals are on their second or third life. The Huntington stop pulls buyers who commute, which supports the good houses and does very little for the ones that need a roof. We have been buying across Suffolk County for 15+ years. We know what the Huntington Union Free School District does to a resale price, which blocks still have oil tanks in the ground, and what a house like yours is actually worth here.
The median has slipped 1.58% 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. At a $935,000 median, Huntington buyers are paying enough that they expect the house to be finished. A dated kitchen is a deduction in a cheaper market and close to disqualifying in this one, which is why unrenovated houses here sit while the renovated ones move. The median house here goes under contract in about 38 days, which is quick for Long Island. It is also a figure that only applies to property in showable condition.
Most people who call us are not moving
They are selling because of something else that happened. An estate, a tenant who stopped paying, a house nobody has lived in since a parent went into care. These are the situations we see most often in Huntington.

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 Huntington median of $935,000 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 Huntington the stock is largely victorian and colonial, and on houses that age the mechanicals are usually the expensive part rather than the cosmetics.
- How long we will hold it. The median Huntington house goes under contract in about 38 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.
How selling to us works in Huntington
- 1
You tell us about the house
An address in 11743 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 victorian or colonial of the age most of Huntington 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 Suffolk 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 83 to 98 days a listed Huntington house spends finding a buyer and then waiting on that buyer's mortgage.
What the two paths cost in Huntington
Work it against Huntington's own numbers. The median sale here is $935,000. A 5% commission on that is $46,750, and seller closing costs of about 2% add roughly $18,700. Those are costs we can cover on our side. That is $65,450 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 Huntington the median house takes about 38 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 83 to 98 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 | $935,000 (Huntington median) | Our written offer |
| Commission | −$46,750 | None |
| Seller closing costs | −$18,700 | We can cover them |
| Repairs before listing | Out of pocket | None |
| Cleanout | Yours | Ours |
| Showings | Until it sells | One visit |
| Listed to signed contract | 38 days (Huntington 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 | 83 to 98 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 | $869,550 | 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 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 Huntington, 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 quickly if you need to, or on whatever date suits you. 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.
