Why Nickel City Buyers
WHY LACKAWANNA HOMEOWNERS
CHOOSE NCB

Lackawanna’s older housing stock — much of it dating to the early-to-mid 20th century — is particularly susceptible to code violations as properties age and maintenance is deferred. The City of Lackawanna Building Department actively monitors and cites properties, and violations can accumulate quickly. NCB has purchased Lackawanna properties with every type and severity of code violation — from minor exterior citations to full condemnation orders. We buy as-is, handle all violations after closing, and restore the property to useful life.

CODE VIOLATIONS IN LACKAWANNA — FAQ
Does NCB buy Lackawanna properties with active city code violations?
Yes — always. Open violations from the City of Lackawanna Building Department, Erie County, or New York State do not prevent a sale to NCB. We purchase the property with all violations in place, factoring their resolution cost into our offer. After closing, NCB brings the property into compliance and restores it. You have zero obligation to repair, correct, or pay any violation fines before closing.
What types of code violations are most common on Lackawanna properties NCB buys?
The most common violations NCB encounters on Lackawanna properties: deteriorated or missing roof, structural porch issues, open/broken windows, exterior siding failures, failed or absent gutters and downspouts, unpermitted additions, unsafe electrical, and inoperable heating systems. Lackawanna’s older housing stock makes these violations common — and NCB has experience resolving every one of them.
Can NCB buy my Lackawanna house if it has a condemnation order or is deemed uninhabitable?
Yes. A condemnation order or uninhabitable designation means the property cannot be occupied — it does not prevent a sale. NCB purchases condemned properties in Lackawanna regularly. Our offer accounts for the cost of bringing the property up to code or, in severe cases, demolition and lot clearing. We have relationships with Lackawanna contractors who specialize in exactly this type of work.
Do I have to pay the open violation fines before selling my Lackawanna property?
No. Outstanding violation fines become a lien against the property and are resolved at closing from NCB’s purchase proceeds — not from your pocket before the sale. The title company researches all open liens and satisfies them at closing. You walk away clean with the net proceeds.
What if my Lackawanna property also has back property taxes in addition to code violations?
NCB handles both simultaneously. Delinquent Erie County property taxes are also resolved at closing from the purchase proceeds, alongside any code violation liens. The combination of violations plus back taxes is something NCB sees regularly in Lackawanna — it does not change our willingness to purchase.
How does NCB’s process work for a Lackawanna property with multiple open violations?
Our process: (1) You call (716) 557-7005 or submit your address. (2) We walk the property and review all active violations with the City of Lackawanna records. (3) We present a cash offer that accounts for all violation resolution costs. (4) You sign the purchase agreement. (5) Our title company researches and clears all liens at closing. (6) You receive net cash. NCB handles everything after closing.
