Frequently Asked Questions

As experts in the Boston multi-family property market, we can remove the stress from selling your property

Before Getting an Offer

We're focused on acquiring 2-10 unit multifamily buildings in Boston and nearby cities and towns. We are committed to holding them long-term as rental investments

If your property is a multifamily in Greater Boston that doesn’t fit our target properties to purchase, it may be best to list with our in house multi family agent team. If you own a different type of property or are located outside of our target neighborhoods, we have a broad network of highly qualified real estate agents throughout the region who can happily connect you with the perfect buyer.

Not at all! Unlike wholesalers who buy to quickly resell, we're dedicated long-term real estate investors in the Boston area. We purchase properties with the intention of holding and managing them as rentals, ensuring stability and integrity in every transaction. This means you can feel confident that your property is going to someone who values it and wants to see it thrive within the community.

As long-term holders of rental property, we plan to make any necessary updates and rent out your building. This means your property will continue to contribute positively to the community, and you can rest assured knowing it's in good hands with an owner who cares about its upkeep, tenant satisfaction and long-term value.

We understand that selling your property can be time-sensitive. That's why we pride ourselves on our efficient process. If your building fits our model, you'll receive a formal offer within 24 hours of submitting your details and having a quick chat with one of our knowledgeable home buyers.
Receiving an Offer

Initial Walkthrough

We conduct a walkthrough of the building within 7 days of the accepted offer to ensure accuracy in our offer. This helps us finalize the purchase with confidence and transparency.

No, you don't need to make any repairs or cleanings before the walkthrough. We understand that you may be busy preparing for the move, and we will buy your property as-is, regardless of its current condition.

One of our experienced and professional full time employees will conduct the walkthrough. They are knowledgeable about the Boston market and can answer any questions you may have about the process.
Closing

The final walkthrough, conducted shortly before closing, is a quick inspection to confirm that the property's condition matches the agreed-upon terms in the offer. This ensures a smooth and transparent closing process for both parties.

While we cover certain expenses related to the closing process, there are some closing costs that are typically the responsibility of the seller. These may include title insurance, transfer taxes, and any outstanding liens or fees on the property. We recommend consulting with an attorney of your choice to get a detailed breakdown of these costs specific to your situation.

We understand that circumstances can sometimes change. While we prioritize honoring the agreed-upon closing date, we are flexible and can try to accommodate changes to the closing date based on mutual agreement and availability. Open communication is key, so please let us know as soon as possible if you need to adjust the closing date.

We work closely with the title company to ensure your mortgage is paid off at closing. This eliminates any potential delays or complications and ensures a smooth transition of ownership.

Typically, major appliances like refrigerators and stoves are included in the sale of the property unless otherwise specified in the purchase agreement. If you prefer to keep any appliances, be sure to communicate this clearly during the offer process.
