Where The Electric Trains Stop, The Lake Meets Main Street, And The Bay Is Two Blocks Down
Babylon is the end of the line. The Babylon branch terminates in the Village a few blocks north of Main Street, and the Village spreads south from the station: Argyle Lake and its park at the top of the downtown, the shops along Main Street and Deer Park Avenue, and below Montauk Highway the water streets running down to Babylon Cove, Sumpwams Creek, and the Great South Bay, with the Robert Moses Causeway to Captree beginning just past the Village line. The houses are older than almost anywhere else in the Town: Victorians and shingled colonials from the 1880s through the 1920s around the downtown, with 1950s capes filling in along the canals of Frederick Shores.
The Village of Babylon runs its own building department out of Village Hall on Main Street, separate from the Town, and a buyer’s title company will look for a Village permit on every dormer, deck, and rebuilt floor. The water streets south of Montauk Highway took serious damage in October 2012, and a decade later some of those houses were raised and some were simply dried out. Prime Realty Buyers buys Babylon Village houses as they stand: the Victorian that’s been an estate for two winters, the Frederick Shores house with no elevation certificate, the colonial with knob and tube behind the plaster, the house the family wants sold quietly. We close in as little as 7 days.
Why Babylon Homeowners Sell To Prime Realty Buyers
Babylon Village houses don’t sell because they’re falling down. They sell because the person who kept them for fifty years is gone or moving, and what’s left is a century old house, a Village permit file with gaps, a flood policy, and children who live somewhere else. A lender turns each of those into a condition.
We make one written cash offer and explain how we got there. Village, court, canal, or estate, we handle our side so you don’t have to.
We Buy Babylon Houses As-Is
You don’t rewire the Victorian. You don’t raise the house. You don’t go back to Village Hall.

Why Choose Prime Realty Buyers
Prime Realty Buyers is a local Long Island buyer. We close in Babylon Village and across the Town of Babylon every month, and the person who walks the house is the person who writes the offer. We explain the number, what we factored in for the wiring, the flood zone, or the open Village permit, and we send proof of funds in writing when you ask.
We work with your attorney and your executor, and we close on your date. If the estate needs the winter, the house waits and nobody walks through it. If you’ve bought in Connecticut and the movers are booked, we close before they arrive.

Real Babylon Seller Stories
I was executor for my uncle’s Victorian near Argyle Lake, and Surrogate’s Court took ten months. The estate paid Village taxes, heat, and insurance on an empty house the whole time. Prime Realty Buyers signed a contract in month two and waited without a single call asking when. When Letters issued, Chris closed in nine days. The knob and tube and the plaster were his problem, not the estate’s.
My parents’ colonial south of Main Street went to me, my brother in Hartford, and my sister in Boulder. The Village had an open permit on a deck from the nineties none of us knew about. Prime Realty Buyers bought it as-is with fifty years of contents inside, took the Village of Babylon paperwork on themselves, handled both signings by mail, and closed in five weeks. Chris explained the number to all three of us at once.
The buyer’s inspector found knob and tube behind the plaster of our 1910 house off Deer Park Avenue, and the bank wanted it rewired before commitment. The electrician’s quote was more than we had. Chris priced the rewire into his offer and showed me how. Prime Realty Buyers closed in 20 days. We never opened a wall.
Forty nine years in the same house two blocks from the water, and everyone on Main Street knew us. We did not want a sign on the lawn or strangers through the front door for six months. Prime Realty Buyers came once, on a Tuesday, and the written offer was in our hands the next morning. We closed eight weeks later, when our place in Connecticut was ready. Nobody in the Village knew until the truck came.
Our house south of Montauk Highway took water to the first floor in Sandy. We dried it out ourselves and never raised it or got the elevation certificate. Two buyers walked after their insurance quotes. Chris walked it in January, said the zone was already in his number, and Prime Realty Buyers closed in 21 days. No engineer, no lift, no third quote. We moved to a condo in Deer Park that spring.

Frequently Asked Questions, Babylon
Babylon is a Village with its own building department. Who deals with Village Hall if I sell to you?
We do, after closing. The Village of Babylon issues the permits and the CO letters, not the Town, and we handle Village Hall on Main Street ourselves. You sell the house as it is, with the open permit or the missing one, and we sort the paperwork.
My house off Deer Park Avenue is from 1910 and still has knob and tube. Do you buy houses that old?
Yes. The blocks around the Babylon downtown are full of houses from the 1880s through the 1920s, and we buy them with the knob and tube, the plaster, the steam boiler, and the slate roof as they are. We price the work into the offer and show you how we got there.
The house south of Montauk Highway flooded in Sandy and was never raised. Will you buy it as it sits?
Yes. The water streets in Babylon Village are a large part of what we buy here, and the flood zone is in our number from the first conversation. No lift, no elevation certificate, no insurance quote, and no problem if the repairs after October 2012 were done by the family without a Village permit.
The bulkhead on my Frederick Shores canal lot needs work. Do I have to fix it first?
No. Bulkheads on the Babylon canals are a five figure job and a lender will want it done before commitment. We price the bulkhead into the offer, show you how, and handle the marine contractor after closing on our dime.
The estate is in Surrogate's Court and the house near Argyle Lake is empty. Can Prime Realty Buyers sign before Letters issue?
Yes. We sign a contract with the executor now and close the week the court issues Letters. If the estate is heating and insuring an empty Village house through the winter in the meantime, closing fast after Letters is where you come out ahead.
I don't want a sign on the lawn or anyone on Main Street knowing. Is that possible?
Yes, and it’s how most of our Babylon Village sales happen. One walkthrough, no sign, no photos online, no open house. The neighbors find out when the moving truck shows up.
The house is full of three generations of furniture. Do I have to empty it?
No. Take the photographs, the papers, and the pieces that matter to the family. Leave the rest, from the attic to the boat shed. We clear it after closing, not before.
Are there fees or commissions when Prime Realty Buyers buys a Babylon Village house?
None. 0% commissions, no closing costs charged to you, no fees at any point. The written offer is what you receive, less only what you owe on the house.
