New York City's housing market remains one of the most resilient and expensive in the world, with median sale prices holding above $800K citywide despite elevated interest rates. Investors find opportunity in value-add multifamily in the outer boroughs, particularly in the Bronx and Southeast Queens, where cap rates are still achievable.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why should I sell my vacant apartment building in New York City instead of renting it?
Vacant properties incur ongoing costs (taxes, insurance, maintenance, HOA) and liability risks (vandalism, squatters, code violations). Selling converts a drain into cash immediately.
Is a vacant apartment building harder to sell on the open market?
Yes. Vacant properties often show poorly, may have deferred maintenance, and can raise red flags with traditional buyers' lenders. Cash buyers like us purchase regardless of occupancy status.
Can I sell a vacant apartment building in New York City that has been empty for years?
Absolutely. We buy properties regardless of how long they have been vacant. Deferred maintenance, overgrown landscaping, and cosmetic issues do not affect our ability to make an offer.
Do you buy apartment buildings with existing tenants in New York City?
Yes. We purchase apartment buildings fully occupied, partially occupied, or vacant. We honor all existing leases and handle tenant communication after closing.
How do you value an apartment building?
We use income-based valuation (cap rate and NOI) alongside comparable sales. Current occupancy, rental rates, operating expenses, and condition all factor into our offer.
What if my apartment building has deferred maintenance?
Deferred maintenance is common and expected. We buy buildings as-is — roof issues, plumbing, electrical, cosmetic problems — none of these prevent us from making an offer.
What Our Sellers Say
“My mom passed and I inherited her place in Antioch. It needed a ton of work and I live out of state so I couldn't deal with contractors or showings. They came out, looked at it, and had a number for me the next day. We closed in 9 days. The whole thing was so much easier than I expected.”
Inherited Property
“Honestly I was skeptical at first because I'd heard horror stories about cash buyers lowballing people. But they explained exactly how they came up with the number and it was fair. We were behind on payments and they got everything done in a week. No last-minute changes, no surprises at closing.”
Avoided Foreclosure
“My husband got transferred to Dallas and we had about three weeks to figure out the house. A friend told us about EasyOffer. They gave us a cash offer that same afternoon and worked around our move date. We closed 11 days later without having to do a single showing or open house.”
