Property taxes piling up? I buy houses with liens — closed in days, not months.

Liens that don't have to stop a sale

• •NYC property tax behind
• •DEP water bill lien
• •HPD violations
• •ECB / DOB violations
• •Mechanic's liens (unpaid contractors)
• •Judgment liens from old lawsuits
• •IRS federal tax liens
• •State tax liens
• •Multiple liens stacked on one property

Most owners think a lien means the house can't be sold. That's not true. It means the title company pays them off at closing out of the sale proceeds — but the sale still happens.

How this works

1. Tell me the property and what you owe. Rough numbers are fine.

2. I make a cash offer that accounts for the liens. No surprises later. The number I quote you is what you walk away with after liens are paid off at closing.

3. We close at the title company. Their job is to research every lien, settle each one from the sale proceeds, and give you clear title-transfer paperwork.

You don't have to negotiate with the city, the IRS, or any contractor. The title company handles all of it as part of a normal closing.

Why this works

A traditional buyer with bank financing can't usually close on a property with significant liens — the bank won't lend on it. That's why retail listings of lien-heavy properties sit on the market forever.

Cash buyers don't have that constraint. I'm paying with my own money. The title company makes sure every lien gets paid at closing — I budget for that in my offer.

I'm not a real estate agent. I'm an investor. I buy 6–10 NYC properties a year and have closed on plenty with $30k+ in stacked liens.
