Leave It Exactly
As It Stands.
We’ll Handle the Rest.
No repairs. No cleaning. No staging. No contractors. Nickel City Buyers buys homes in any condition across Buffalo and Western New York — exactly as they are today, belongings and all.
You Don’t Have to Fix
A Single Thing.
When we say as-is, we mean it completely. Not “as-is after you patch the roof.” Not “as-is but please remove your belongings.” Not “as-is except we need an inspection first.” We mean as-is — the property exactly as it stands today, with whatever is in it, however it looks, whatever shape it’s in.
Traditional home sales require repairs, staging, cleaning, inspections, and often thousands of dollars of preparation before the first buyer even walks through. All of that effort on a property you’re trying to get rid of. We remove that entire burden. One walkthrough, one offer, one closing.
We’ve bought Buffalo homes with 40 years of belongings still inside. Homes with deferred maintenance going back decades. Homes that haven’t been touched since a family member passed. Whatever the situation — if you own it, we’ll make you an offer on it.
Hand Over the Keys.
That’s All We Need.
The only thing we need from you is a signed purchase agreement and a key at closing. Everything else — the cleanout, the repairs, the hauling, the disposal — that’s our job after closing. Take what you want, leave everything else, and walk away.
We’ve been buying Buffalo homes exactly this way since 2013. Over 300 transactions. We’ve seen every kind of as-is condition there is — and nothing has stopped us from making an offer.
Get My Cash OfferWhatever It Looks Like,
We’ve Seen Worse.
Roof needs replacing, foundation issues, outdated electrical, old plumbing — decades of deferred maintenance. We buy it and handle the renovation ourselves after closing.
Years or decades of accumulated belongings, furniture, personal items. No cleanout required before closing. Take what matters to you and leave everything else.
Inherited a home still full of a loved one’s belongings? We specialize in estate purchases — respectful, efficient, and no cleanout burden placed on the family.
Half-finished kitchen, started bathroom remodel, unpermitted addition. We buy homes mid-renovation. You don’t need to finish what you started.
Code violations from the city, unpermitted work, outstanding inspection orders. We buy through violations without requiring you to resolve them first.
No specific crisis — just done. Relocating, downsizing, tired of a second property. Whatever the reason, if you just need the house gone fast, we’re your buyer.
Four Steps to
Walking Away Clean.
Tell Us About the Property
Call (716) 557-7005 or fill out our form. Address, rough condition, and anything notable. No need to minimize or apologize for the condition — we ask because we want to make the right offer, not because we’re judging.
One Walkthrough
We do a single walkthrough at a convenient time. We look at everything — condition, contents, needed repairs — and present a written cash offer within 24 hours. No repeated showings, no strangers parading through.
We Handle All Paperwork
We coordinate with the title company, handle any outstanding liens or back taxes at closing, and manage every document. You review, sign, and wait for closing day. That’s it.
Cash at Closing
We close at a title company. You receive cash. The property — and everything in it — is our problem from that moment forward. You walk away with money in hand and nothing left to deal with.

Sell As-Is FAQ — Buffalo NY
Do I really not have to clean out the house?
Correct — not a single item needs to be removed before closing. We purchase the property with whatever is inside it. After closing, we manage the cleanout entirely on our own — donation, disposal, estate sale coordination if appropriate. You take what you want and leave everything else. We mean this without exception.
What if the house needs significant repairs?
That’s exactly the situation we buy. Major roof damage, outdated systems, structural issues, unfinished renovations — we factor the repair costs into our offer and handle everything ourselves after closing. You are never asked to make a single repair, hire a single contractor, or spend a single dollar on the property before selling to us.
How is your offer calculated on an as-is property?
We evaluate the property based on its current as-is value, the cost of repairs and renovation we’ll need to complete, carrying costs during renovation, and comparable sales in the Buffalo market. We walk through this math with you transparently — you’ll know exactly how we arrived at the number before you decide anything.
Can I still take things from the house after accepting your offer?
Yes. Between signing the purchase agreement and closing, you are welcome to remove whatever you want to keep. Furniture, personal items, tools, valuables — take what matters to you. Whatever remains at closing stays with the property and becomes our responsibility. We just ask that you don’t remove fixtures that are part of the structure.
What if there are tenants or occupants in the property?
We purchase occupied properties regularly. We work within New York State tenant rights laws and handle tenant transition ourselves after closing. You don’t need to have the property vacant before we buy — that’s a situation we manage on our end after taking ownership.
Is there any situation too bad for you to buy?
In over 300 transactions across Buffalo and WNY since 2013, we have not encountered a property in too poor condition to evaluate. Fire damage, hoarder conditions, condemned status, severe structural issues — we’ve bought through all of it. The condition affects the offer price, not our willingness to make one. Call us and let us take a look.
What areas in Western New York do you buy as-is homes?
Our primary market is Buffalo and Erie County — Cheektowaga, Tonawanda, Amherst, Lackawanna, West Seneca, Hamburg, Orchard Park, Lancaster, Depew, Kenmore, Williamsville, and throughout the metro area. We also buy in Niagara County including Niagara Falls, Lockport, and North Tonawanda. Contact us for any WNY location.
How fast can you actually close?
As fast as 7 days from signed purchase agreement to closing. Because we buy with cash — no mortgage, no bank financing — there are no lender delays or financing contingencies. The main variable is title clearance, which we expedite. Most as-is purchases close within 2–3 weeks; 7 days is our minimum on a clean title.
