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

Yes. Large parts of Plymouth — including Manomet, Cedarville, and West Plymouth — rely on private septic systems, and Massachusetts Title 5 rules require a septic inspection when one of those homes is sold. A failed inspection stalls most traditional sales because lenders generally will not finance the purchase until the system is repaired or replaced, which can cost tens of thousands of dollars. Because we buy with cash, no lender is involved: we purchase homes with failed or overdue Title 5 inspections and take responsibility for the system as part of the deal.

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 Plymouth, that inspection is scheduled through the Plymouth Fire Department. It is the one inspection that still applies in an as-is cash sale, and we walk you through what the inspectors check 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 Plymouth County Registry of Deeds, located right in Plymouth. You are always welcome to have your own attorney review the agreement before you sign.

No. Many Plymouth homes are second homes or inherited properties owned by people who live elsewhere, and Massachusetts closings can be handled without the seller being present. The closing attorney can send documents for you to sign remotely or arrange a power of attorney, and sale proceeds are wired to you. We handle the property side locally so you do not need to travel to sell.

Yes — you do not have to wait for the entire estate to close, but a personal representative must first be appointed by the court before an inherited home can be deeded to a buyer. For Plymouth properties that appointment is made at the Plymouth County Probate and Family Court at 52 Obery Street in Plymouth, and for an uncontested estate an informal probate appointment can be in place in a matter of weeks. Once the representative has authority — and, where the will grants it, a power of sale — the closing attorney records the deed at the Plymouth County Registry of Deeds, which sits right in Plymouth as well. Having both the court and the registry in town keeps an inherited-home sale unusually straightforward here, and we regularly work around probate timing rather than asking families to rush it.

Often far less than sellers expect, though every situation is different and this is not tax advice. Under federal law an inherited property receives a "stepped-up" cost basis equal to its fair market value on the date of the previous owner's death, so if you sell soon after inheriting, capital gains tax generally applies only to appreciation since that date — frequently little or nothing. If the home was your own primary residence for at least two of the last five years, the federal exclusion of up to $250,000 of gain ($500,000 for a married couple) may also apply. Separately, Massachusetts levies an estate tax only on estates above $2 million. Because the numbers turn on your specific circumstances, we always recommend confirming them with a tax professional — and a cash sale gives you a clean, dated closing figure to bring to that conversation.

Yes — and selling is often how owners in this position protect their equity. In Massachusetts, overdue property taxes accrue interest at 14% a year, and if the balance stays unpaid the Town of Plymouth can record a tax taking at the Plymouth County Registry of Deeds, moving the debt into "tax title" (takings recorded since November 2024 accrue 8% interest; older ones 16%). If it still goes unpaid, the town can petition the Land Court to foreclose your right to redeem the property. You keep the right to sell until that foreclosure is complete: at a cash closing, the attorney obtains a municipal lien certificate, pays the town's full tax and tax-title balance out of the sale proceeds, and the rest is yours. Selling before the Land Court process ends means your equity is measured against a real sale price — not what is left over after a tax foreclosure.

The main one is capital gains tax, and it works differently than for a primary home — though every situation is different and this is not tax advice. The federal exclusion of up to $250,000 of gain ($500,000 for a married couple) applies only to a home you have lived in as your primary residence for at least two of the last five years, so a cottage in Manomet or White Horse Beach that has always been the family's summer place generally does not qualify — the gain since purchase is taxable, federally and by Massachusetts. That gain is the sale price minus what you paid plus documented improvements over the years, so records of the addition, the new septic system, or the winterization work directly reduce the tax. If you inherited the cottage rather than bought it, the math usually improves dramatically: the cost basis steps up to the property's value at the previous owner's death, wiping out decades of paper gain. We recommend running the numbers with a tax professional — and a cash sale gives you a clean, certain closing figure to plan around.

Plymouth does not require a well water test when a property changes hands unless the well is less than 100 feet from the septic system, in which case the town requires testing for ammonia nitrogen, fecal coliform, nitrate nitrogen, and volatile organic compounds by a private lab (the town does not test wells itself). The catch for a traditional sale is the buyer's lender: FHA, VA, and many conventional lenders require a water quality test on any home with a private well before they will fund the loan, and a failed or borderline result can hold up or kill the closing while treatment systems are quoted and installed. That matters in Plymouth, where much of Cedarville, Manomet, and West Plymouth is on private wells. A cash sale has no lender and no water-test condition — we buy the house with the well as it is. This is general information; check with the Plymouth Board of Health for your specific property.

Massachusetts charges a deeds excise tax of $4.56 per $1,000 of the sale price, which the seller pays at closing in Plymouth County — about $3,124 on a $685,000 sale. That applies to a sale to us just as it would to any buyer; we do not pretend it away. Beyond the excise, a cash sale removes most of the costs a traditional sale carries: no agent commission (typically 4–6% of the price), no seller concessions toward the buyer's closing costs, and no repair credits negotiated after an inspection. The remaining items are small — recording fees for the deed and any discharges, a final water/sewer reading if the house is on town service, and a prorated share of property taxes to the closing date. Any mortgage balance, tax-title amount, or lien is paid from proceeds at closing. Your closing attorney will show every line on the settlement statement before you sign.
