“Fire damage. Every other buyer I called said no. Nickel City showed up, made me a real offer, and closed in three weeks. I didn’t have to deal with the insurance company, didn’t have to make a single repair. These guys are the real deal.”
“My father left us a house that hadn’t been touched in 20 years. Full of stuff. Needed a new roof, new plumbing, the whole thing. They bought it as-is, contents and all. We didn’t have to touch a single thing. Closed in under a month.”
“I was a landlord in Cheektowaga for 12 years. Property needed a full gut renovation and I was done. Called Monday, offer by Wednesday, closed in three weeks with tenants still in the unit. Wish I’d done it years earlier.”

House Flippers Buffalo NY — FAQ
Do you really buy houses in any condition?
Yes — and our past projects page proves it. Fire damage with structural concerns that every other buyer walked away from. Boarded windows and rotting porches. Mid-renovation stalls where the seller ran out of money. Hoarder estates with full contents. Vacant properties that had been sitting for years. If you own it and it’s in WNY, we will look at it and make you a cash offer.
How do you calculate your offer on a distressed Buffalo property?
We assess the property in person — we don’t run automated valuations. Our offer is based on the property’s current condition, the cost of renovation required, and what the finished home will be worth in that specific Buffalo neighborhood. We’re transparent about how we arrive at the number. You can accept, negotiate, or walk away — no pressure, no obligation, no cost to get an offer.
How fast can you close on a Buffalo flip?
As fast as 7 days from offer acceptance on a straightforward cash sale. Most NCB closings happen in 14–21 days through a licensed Erie County title company. Estate situations close on the court’s timeline. If you have a date you need to hit — before a foreclosure auction, before the end of probate, before you leave town — tell us and we work backward from there.
Do you buy houses with open code violations or demolition notices?
Yes. Open city violations, unsafe structure orders, and even active demolition notices don’t prevent a cash sale to NCB. We buy the property as-is, handle the violations as part of our renovation scope after closing, and work directly with the City of Buffalo or the relevant municipality. You don’t need to bring the property into compliance before we close. See our code violations page →
Are you the only house flipper in Buffalo?
No — but we’re the most established local one. NCB has been operating continuously since 2013, has purchased 300+ properties across Erie and Niagara County, holds an A+ BBB rating, and has 33 verified five-star Google reviews from real WNY homeowners. Before you sign anything with any cash buyer in Buffalo, verify their track record. Our past projects, reviews, and company page are all public. We’re easy to verify.
What happens to the house after you buy it?
We renovate it. Every property NCB buys gets repaired, updated, and put back into the Buffalo housing market — as a rental, a resale, or both. We’re not land-banking or sitting on vacant properties. The before-and-after projects on our past projects page show exactly what that looks like. Buffalo has enough vacant houses. We’re here to fix that, one deal at a time.
