Why Nickel City Buyers
WHY AMHERST HOMEOWNERS
CHOOSE NCB
CHOOSE NCB
Amherst has one of Erie County’s highest concentrations of estates involving larger single-family homes, some held by families for 30–40 years. When a parent or relative passes, the inherited Amherst property often comes with significant deferred maintenance, full rooms of belongings, and an Erie County probate process that surprises most heirs. NCB moves at the estate’s pace — and we know the Surrogate’s Court process at 92 Franklin Street, Buffalo.
Probate Experts
NCB works with Erie County Surrogate’s Court regularly. We execute purchase agreements early and close the moment the court authorizes the sale.
Leave Everything
Take what matters. Leave the rest. Full cleanout after closing at no charge — furniture, clothing, decades of belongings.
Out-of-State Heirs
Virtual walkthrough, e-sign, wire transfer. Out-of-state executors never have to travel to Cheektowaga or Buffalo.
No Fees or Commissions
$0 agent commissions, $0 repair costs, $0 closing fees to the estate. The offer is what the estate receives.
Multiple Heirs OK
We coordinate with all parties patiently — we’ve navigated complex multi-heir situations in Cheektowaga many times.
Local Since 2013
NCB is locally owned in Cheektowaga — we know Erie County, the Surrogate’s Court, and the WNY estate landscape.

INHERITED PROPERTY IN AMHERST — FAQ
Can NCB buy my inherited Amherst house while it’s still in probate?
Yes. NCB executes a purchase agreement during the probate process, then closes once Erie County Surrogate’s Court grants authority to sell — via Letters Testamentary or a court order authorizing the specific real estate transaction. We’ve done this across Amherst and Erie County for over a decade. We work directly with your estate attorney and are fully familiar with the Surrogate’s Court process at 92 Franklin Street, Buffalo NY 14202. Call (716) 557-7005.
Does the inherited Amherst house need to be cleaned out first?
Never. Take what has personal value and leave everything else — furniture, clothing, appliances, full rooms of accumulated belongings. NCB handles the complete cleanout after closing at no charge to the estate. This is especially important for Amherst estates where the property has been in the family for decades and the volume of belongings is substantial.
My siblings and I inherited an Amherst property and don’t all agree. What happens?
All co-owners of inherited property must generally consent to a voluntary sale under New York law. If heirs can’t agree, one option is a partition action in NY Supreme Court — but that takes 12–24 months and generates significant legal fees. NCB has helped facilitate agreement among disputing heirs many times by presenting a fair, transparent offer that all parties can evaluate. A concrete number often breaks the impasse. See our multiple heirs guide.
The inherited Amherst home needs major repairs — roof, windows, systems. Does that matter?
No. NCB buys completely as-is. Amherst properties that have been held for 30+ years often have significant deferred maintenance — roof issues, older electrical panels, original windows, outdated kitchens. None of it affects our willingness to make an offer. We factor condition into our price and handle all repairs after closing. You are never asked to spend a dollar on the property before selling.
We’re out-of-state heirs dealing with an Amherst property — can NCB handle this remotely?
Yes — 100% remotely. Virtual walkthrough via video call, all documents signed electronically, proceeds wired directly to the estate account. We regularly work with heirs in Florida, California, Texas, and across the country who have inherited Amherst properties. You never have to travel to Buffalo. See our out-of-state executor guide.
What taxes apply when selling an inherited Amherst property?
The stepped-up basis rule is your biggest advantage — your cost basis resets to the property’s fair market value at the date of death. If you sell shortly after inheriting, capital gains are often minimal or zero. NY State estate tax applies only to estates over $7.16 million (2024). Most Amherst estates are well below this threshold. Consult a CPA for your specific situation. Full guide: Tax Implications — Inherited House NY.
