    What we see in New Bedford

    We buy houses in New Bedford that other buyers pass on

    Triple-deckers and old mill housing

    New Bedford is triple-deckers and old mill housing, a lot of it with lead paint and knob and tube wiring. Banks and inspectors pick these apart. We buy them as they stand and skip the inspection games.

    Landlords who are done

    Plenty of New Bedford three-families are owned by landlords who are done chasing rent and dealing with housing court. We buy occupied buildings, tenants in place, and take over the headache.

    Inherited property

    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.

    Behind on payments

    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.

    Tired landlord

    Tenants who won't pay or won't leave. We buy with them in place. You don't go to housing court first.

    Just done with it

    Divorce, a move, downsizing, or you don't want the hassle of listing. You pick the closing date.

    Selling in New Bedford

    Landlord or owner-occupant: what selling looks like here

    New Bedford's housing is old and heavily multi-family. About half of the city's homes were built in 1939 or earlier, nearly half of all housing units sit in two-, three- or four-unit buildings, and about six in ten households rent. What that means depends on whether you live in the house or rent it out.

    If you rent it out

    Selling with tenants in place

    A traditional buyer's lender and inspector look hard at an occupied multi-family, and many buyers want units delivered empty. We buy with the tenants and leases in place, including tenants who are behind on rent.

    Housing court

    New Bedford is served by the Southeast Housing Court's New Bedford session on Hathaway Road. Selling to us means you don't have to start or finish an eviction to sell.

    Lead paint and older units

    Homes built before 1978 come with Massachusetts lead paint disclosure rules, and rental units with young children have deleading duties. The city's Office of Housing & Community Development has run lead-abatement assistance programs if you're keeping the building; if you're selling, we buy it as it is.

    If you live in the house

    An older house that needs work

    With a median build year in the late 1930s, many New Bedford homes still have original systems. We price the house as it is today, so you don't replace wiring, heat or a roof before you sell.

    An inherited house

    New Bedford estates go through the Bristol Probate and Family Court's New Bedford session on Pleasant Street. Whoever is handling the estate can sell once they have the legal authority to, and we can work around the court's timeline.

    Behind on the mortgage

    Massachusetts generally requires a 90-day right-to-cure notice before a lender can foreclose on an owner-occupied home. Free HUD-approved housing counselors can review your options; if selling is the answer, we can usually close before an auction date.

    Questions

    New Bedford sellers ask us

    Can I sell my New Bedford three-family with tenants living there?

    Yes. We buy occupied two- and three-families with the tenants and leases in place, including tenants who are behind on rent. You don't need to empty the building or go to housing court first.

    My house is over 100 years old and needs everything. Will you still buy it?

    Yes. Old wiring, old heat, lead paint, a tired roof: we price the house as it stands, so you don't fix anything before you sell.

    How fast can I sell my house in New Bedford?

    As fast as 7 days, or as far out as you need. A clear title moves quickly; an estate, a lien or a tenant situation can take longer, and Greg will tell you at the start.

    I'm behind on my mortgage. Is it too late to sell?

    Not until the auction. We can usually close before an auction date and you leave with cash instead of a foreclosure on your record. Free HUD-approved housing counselors can also review your options. More: selling before foreclosure.

    Will listing with an agent get me more?

    Sometimes. An updated, owner-occupied house with no tenant or repair issues will often net more on the open market, and we'll tell you so. A cash sale fits best when the building needs work, has tenants, or the timing matters most.

    Are there commissions or fees?

    No commissions and no fees from us. Anything you already owe, like a mortgage or a lien, is paid from the sale at closing.
