What brings Plainfield sellers to a cash buyer
Houses from before 1960
61.7% of Plainfield's housing was built before 1960. If the repair list is longer than your patience or your budget, I'll take the house as it is.
Landlord fatigue
Most occupied homes in Plainfield are rented, 55.2% of them. I buy rental buildings with the tenants still living there, so the units don't have to be empty when you sell to me. An attorney can tell you what you owe your tenants; I can tell you what I'd pay for the building.
An estate that needs a decision
When siblings inherit an older house together, they have to agree on what to do with it. A firm cash number gives everyone something concrete to decide on.
Inherited a house here?
Plainfield executors probate a will with the Union County Surrogate's Court, which asks for the original will and a certified copy of the death certificate.

Selling in Plainfield: your questions
If your Plainfield house needs more work than you want to take on, send me the address. I'll give you an honest number with no pressure behind it.
Will you buy one of Plainfield's oldest houses?
Yes. 35.7% of the city's homes date from before 1940, and age alone doesn't stop me. What matters is the condition, the repairs and what the house would be worth once it's fixed.
How close to Plainfield's $410,800 median will your offer be?
That depends entirely on condition. The median includes houses that are fully updated. If yours needs a full renovation, its as-is value sits well below a finished one nearby, and my offer reflects that. If your house is in great shape, you'll probably do better listing it.
Do I have to empty my Plainfield house before selling?
No. Leave whatever you don't want. Furniture, boxes, a basement full of old storage: I buy the house as-is and handle the cleanout after the sale.
My Plainfield rental still has tenants. Can I sell it to you?
Yes, I'll buy it with the tenants in place. Renters occupy 55.2% of the city's occupied homes, so this comes with the territory here. Give me the unit count, the rents and the lease dates, and ask a landlord-tenant attorney what the sale means for your tenants.
