Frequently Asked Questions

How fast can I sell my house in Queens, NY?

With a cash buyer: 7 to 21 days from accepted offer to closing. As-is MLS listing: 21 to 45 days plus 30 to 45 days to close. Traditional listing: 60 to 90+ days. Queens averages 48 to 65 days on market.

Can I sell my Queens two-family home if it has tenants?

Yes. Cash buyers experienced with Queens multi-family properties purchase occupied two-family homes routinely. NYC tenant law governs access and notice requirements, but a cash buyer who specializes in Queens multi-family handles these issues without complication.

What taxes do I pay when selling a house in Queens?

Queens sellers pay NYC Transfer Tax — 1% on sales under $500,000 or 1.425% on sales of $500,000 or more — plus NY State Transfer Tax of 0.4%. On an $830,000 Queens sale, that is approximately $15,000 in transfer taxes. Many cash buyers cover these costs.

Can I sell if I am behind on mortgage payments in Queens?

Yes. The outstanding mortgage balance is paid off from sale proceeds at closing. All Queens foreclosure actions are handled at Queens County Supreme Court, 88-11 Sutphin Blvd, Jamaica, with auctions every Friday at 10am and 11am.

Can I sell my Queens house without a real estate agent?

Yes. Selling directly to a cash buyer eliminates the need for a real estate agent. On an $830,000 Queens home, this saves $41,500 to $49,800 in agent commission. New York requires attorney representation at closing, but that cost is far lower than agent commission.

How does selling an inherited house work in Queens?

Queens probate is handled through the Surrogate's Court at 88-11 Sutphin Blvd, 7th Floor, Jamaica — same building as Queens County Supreme Court. For a standard uncontested estate, expect 6 to 12 months. Cash buyers can structure a contract to close as soon as the estate is ready.

Do I have to make repairs before selling in Queens?

No. A cash buyer factors repair costs into their offer, meaning you sell without investing in the property first. For Queens older housing stock in Jamaica, Hollis, and South Ozone Park, a cash sale is typically the most practical path when significant repairs are needed.
