Sell your Fall River house as-is, for cash, on your schedule, with no commissions and no fees.
Yes. Single-families, two-families, three-families and larger mill-era buildings, with no repairs and no cleanout.
We pay off what's owed at closing and take the property as-is.
A 5 to 10 minute walkthrough, usually within a few days. If it works, pick your closing date. As fast as 7 days, or as far out as you need.
Fall River has some of the oldest multi-family stock in the state, three and six-unit buildings from the mill days. Deferred maintenance adds up fast on a building that size. We buy them rough, no repairs first.
A lot of Fall River houses come with back taxes, water liens, or a city code violation list. That scares off retail buyers. We pay off what's owed at closing and take the property as-is.
Probate still open, siblings in three states, a house full of stuff. We buy it as-is, work around the court timeline, and clear out whatever you leave.
Mortgage, taxes, or a lien. We can usually close before an auction date and you leave with cash instead of a foreclosure on your record.
Tenants who won't pay or won't leave. We buy with them in place. You don't go to housing court first.
Divorce, a move, downsizing, or you don't want the hassle of listing. You pick the closing date.
Census estimates show nearly half of Fall River's housing was built in 1939 or earlier, the median home dates to 1945, about 45% of units are in two- to four-unit buildings, and roughly two in three households rent. These are the things that most often stall a Fall River sale, and how each one plays out if you sell to us.
Original wiring, old heating, worn porches and roofs show up fast in a buyer's inspection, and lenders are cautious with older multi-families. Homes built before 1978 also come with the state's lead paint notice.
Selling to us: We price the building as it stands. If you'd rather fix and keep it, the city's Community Development Agency offers rehab loans to eligible owner-occupants that can include lead paint abatement.
Unpaid taxes, water and sewer charges or other liens have to be cleared before a buyer gets clean title.
Selling to us: Your closing attorney pays them off from the sale price at closing, so you don't need cash up front to clear them.
Rental units must meet the state sanitary code and Fall River's minimum housing standards. City inspectors respond to complaints and can enforce through Housing Court, and the city code also requires registration of certain vacant and foreclosing residential properties.
Selling to us: We buy the property with the open items and handle them after closing.
Fall River is served by the Southeast Housing Court's Fall River session at 289 Rock Street, which also covers Freetown, Westport, Somerset and Swansea.
Selling to us: We buy with tenants in place, including tenants who are behind, so you don't have to go to court first.
Estates are handled by the Bristol Probate and Family Court, which has a Fall River location at 289 Rock Street. Whoever is handling the estate can sell once they have the legal authority to.
Selling to us: We work around the court's timeline and buy the house with everything still in it.
Only a small set of addresses in the Highlands, 47 properties, are in Fall River's local historic district, where visible exterior changes or demolition need Historical Commission approval. Older buildings elsewhere may still go through the city's demolition review.
Selling to us: If your house is on that list, the approvals become our job after closing.

If your house is updated and has no tenant, lien or code problems, listing it will probably net you more, and Greg will tell you so.
| Listing it | Selling to us | |
|---|---|---|
| Repairs | Usually expected, or the price drops after inspection | None. We buy as it stands |
| Back taxes and liens | Paid at closing, but the buyer's lender may balk first | Paid at closing from our purchase price |
| Tenants | Many buyers want units delivered empty | Tenants can stay |
| Code violations | Often have to be fixed before the buyer's lender closes | We take them on |
| Timing | Months on the market plus financing | As fast as 7 days, or as far out as you need |
| Price | Usually higher for an updated building | Usually lower than a top-dollar listing |
How we price it: what the building is worth fixed up, minus the real cost and time to get there, holding and resale costs, and a fair margin for our risk. We'll walk you through the numbers.
Fill out the form, or call 508-789-2497. Address and a couple of details is enough to start.

We're not a call center with a Fall River landing page. Our office is on Sandwich Street in Plymouth, we live on the Cape, and we buy in Fall River regularly. We know what houses there actually sell for, and we'll tell you honestly whether a cash sale is your best move. If it isn't, we'll say so and point you to a local agent we trust.
More about Greg, how a sale works and what sellers say. Call 508-789-2497 or text Greg.
Yes. Taxes, water and sewer charges and other liens are paid off from the sale at closing. You don't need to clear them first.
Yes. We buy occupied multi-families with the tenants and leases in place, including tenants who are behind on rent.
Yes. We buy properties with open code items and deal with them after closing, so you don't have to make the repairs first.
As fast as 7 days, or as far out as you need. A clear title moves quickly; an estate, liens or tenant issues can take longer, and Greg will tell you at the start.
Probably not. Fall River's local historic district covers 47 addresses in the Highlands. National Register listing for areas like the Lower Highlands or Corky Row doesn't by itself restrict a private owner.
No commissions and no fees from us. Anything you already owe, like a mortgage or liens, is paid from the sale at closing.
