We can close on your Boston home in as little as 7 days, and we work on your timeline. If you need to close faster, we can accommodate.

Yes, we buy houses throughout Boston including Dorchester, Roxbury, Jamaica Plain, Mattapan, and all surrounding areas. We purchase homes in any condition in any neighborhood.

We buy all residential properties in Boston - single-family homes, multi-family properties, condos, townhouses, and investment properties. Any condition, any situation.

We evaluate your Boston property based on location, condition, needed repairs, and recent comparable sales in Suffolk County. Our offer reflects fair market value accounting for any needed work.

Zero fees. When you sell your Boston home to Prime Property, there are no commissions, no closing costs, and no hidden charges. The offer you accept is what you receive.

No problem. We buy Boston houses in any condition - from minor cosmetic issues to major structural problems. You don't need to fix anything before selling to us.

Yes. Massachusetts law requires every home seller to obtain a smoke and carbon monoxide detector certificate of compliance from the local fire department before closing — in Boston, that inspection is scheduled through the Boston Fire Department. It is the one inspection that still applies in an as-is cash sale, and we walk you through what the inspectors look for so the visit goes smoothly.

Massachusetts closings are conducted by an attorney, not an escrow company. When you sell to us, a Massachusetts closing attorney prepares the deed and settlement paperwork and records the sale at the Suffolk County Registry of Deeds in downtown Boston. You are always welcome to have your own attorney review the agreement before you sign.

Yes. Triple-deckers in Dorchester, Mattapan, and East Boston are a core part of what we buy, and many owners want to sell without first going through move-outs. In Massachusetts, existing leases carry over to the new owner, so we can buy with tenants in place and take over the landlord responsibilities at closing — you do not need to empty the building before selling.

The estate usually needs a personal representative appointed by the Massachusetts Probate and Family Court before clear title can transfer — for an uncontested estate, informal probate can accomplish that in a matter of weeks. If the will grants a power of sale, the representative can then sell without a separate court license. We work with estates at whatever stage they are in and can line up the sale so it closes as soon as the appointment allows.

Yes. Over the decades many Boston triple-deckers picked up an extra basement or attic apartment that was never permitted as a legal unit. When a buyer needs a mortgage, an unpermitted or non-conforming unit usually has to be documented or removed before a lender will finance the purchase, which can derail a traditional sale. A cash purchase does not run through that lender review, so we can buy the building as it actually exists — legal units, extra units, and all — without asking you to legalize or gut anything first.

Yes. We buy Boston properties that carry open violations or orders from the city's Inspectional Services Department (ISD), from sanitary-code and building-code citations to vacant-property or condemnation notices. These issues normally stop a financed buyer, because a lender wants the violations cleared first, but they do not stop a cash sale. We take on the outstanding city matters after closing, so you are not responsible for bringing the property into compliance before you sell.

The main seller-side cost in any Massachusetts sale is the state deed excise tax — $4.56 per $1,000 of the sale price in Suffolk County, so about $2,280 on a $500,000 sale — which is paid out of your proceeds at closing. Beyond that, sellers typically cover the smoke and carbon monoxide certificate fee and any payoff of existing mortgages or liens. In a direct cash sale to us there is no broker commission, which in a traditional Boston listing is usually the largest closing cost of all, and we do not charge fees of our own.

Yes. Boston requires every rental property to be registered with the Inspectional Services Department each year by July 1 — $25 per unit the first time and $15 per unit to renew — and registered units are inspected at least once every five years. Owners who never registered can face a $300-per-month penalty and back fees, which is exactly the kind of open city balance that makes a financed buyer walk away. None of it blocks a cash sale: outstanding registration fees or fines are settled from the proceeds at closing like any other municipal charge, and after closing the property's compliance becomes our responsibility, not yours.

Yes. Massachusetts condo law (Chapter 183A) requires a certificate from the condo association — often called a 6(d) certificate — stating any unpaid common charges before a unit can transfer. Unpaid fees or an outstanding special assessment do not block the sale; the balance is simply paid from the sale proceeds at closing so the certificate comes back clean. We buy condos across Boston with overdue fees, looming special assessments, or buildings where litigation or low owner-occupancy has scared off financed buyers.
