Bungalow Lanes And Two-Families From Brighton 1st To Brighton 15th Street
North of Brighton Beach Avenue, the numbered streets run from Brighton 1st to Brighton 15th, and tucked between them are lanes and walks, some too narrow for a car. Brighton 1st Walk, Brighton 1st Terrace, Brighton 3rd Walk, and their neighbors are lined with bungalows put up as summer cottages after the old racetrack closed and winterized later for year-round living, and more lanes branch off Brighton 10th Street beside the el. The numbered streets mix attached two-families and small houses with apartment buildings, and condominium towers stand near the boardwalk. The B and Q stop at Brighton Beach, and the Q also stops at Ocean Parkway.
Since the 1970s, many of these houses have belonged to families who came from the former Soviet Union, and they are now passing to children in Brooklyn and relatives overseas. Many calls start there, with a death certificate issued abroad or an heir who can’t travel. Others start with the house: an enclosed porch or a second floor nobody ever filed with the city, or, on some lanes, Sandy damage from October 2012 that was patched, not fixed. Prime Realty Buyers is a New York City cash buyer whose office is in Ozone Park, a few minutes past the Brooklyn line, and we buy Brighton Beach houses as they are, at your family’s pace.
Trusted By Brighton Beach Homeowners In:
the walks and lanes off Brighton 1st and Brighton 2nd Streets, the Brighton 10th Street lanes by the el, the blocks between Brighton Beach Avenue and Neptune Avenue, Coney Island Avenue, and the south end of Ocean Parkway, plus surrounding Brooklyn neighborhoods including Manhattan Beach, Sheepshead Bay, Coney Island, Gravesend, Homecrest, Sea Gate, and Bensonhurst.
Why Brighton Beach Homeowners Sell To Prime Realty Buyers
On the Brighton streets, what holds a sale up is usually a document: a will written in another language, a death certificate from abroad, a porch enclosure nobody filed. None of it has to be settled before you call us.
Sellers across Brighton Beach reach out to us when they're dealing with:
Bungalows on pedestrian walks like Brighton 1st Walk, where a moving truck can't pull up to the door
Grandparents leaving a house with steep stairs for an apartment closer to the grandchildren
We put the offer in writing and explain it line by line. If estate papers are still on their way from overseas, we wait for them.
We Buy Brighton Beach Houses As-Is
The family takes what it wants; the house, the lane, and the paperwork come to us as they are.
We buy:
Take what matters. Leave the rest. We carry everything else out after closing, by hand down the walk if that's what it takes.
Why Choose Prime Realty Buyers
Prime Realty Buyers is a New York City cash buyer working out of Ozone Park, a few minutes past the Brooklyn line, and the person who answers the phone is the one who walks down the Brighton lane to see the bungalow and write the offer. We explain every line of it as many times as your family needs.
Your attorney gets our proof of funds in writing before anyone signs, and a title company handles the closing while heirs abroad sign where they live. The date is yours: as soon as 7 days out, or after the estate is settled and every signature is back.

Real Brighton Beach Seller Stories
Probate Property
“My father died while visiting my sister in Israel, so his death certificate was in Hebrew, and Surrogate’s Court needed a certified translation before anything moved. His bungalow on Brighton 1st Terrace sat empty the whole time. Prime Realty Buyers put a contract in place right away and never once rushed the court. The closing came 12 days after the court issued the Letters. Chris answered my questions every time I called.”
Out Of State Heir
“I live in Germany, and my aunt left her house on Brighton 2nd Place to me and two cousins in New Jersey. None of us could manage repairs or showings from that far away. Our attorney set up my signature at the U.S. consulate in Frankfurt, Prime Realty Buyers bought the house with all her furniture inside, and we closed by mail in five weeks.”
Repair Distress
“Our bungalow on Brighton 3rd Walk leaked every winter, and the porch my husband closed in during the 1980s turned out never to have been filed with the city. A buyer’s lawyer wanted it legalized before closing, and I couldn’t take on an architect at my age. Prime Realty Buyers bought it as it was, roof and porch and all, and we closed in 18 days.”
Downsizing
“I came to Brighton 6th Street as a young bride and stayed for sixty years. My daughter in Florida worried I’d be stuck managing contractors and strangers walking through the house. Prime Realty Buyers bought my two-family as it was, my upstairs tenant stayed, and Chris was patient with every question I had. We closed in about a month, the same week the movers took me down to Florida.”
Landlord Headache
“When I decided to retire to Israel, the family renting the upstairs of my two-family on Brighton 11th Street had been there twenty years and had nowhere else to go. I didn’t want them pushed out to make a sale work. Prime Realty Buyers bought the house with them still living upstairs and never asked me to empty it, and we closed in 22 days, a month before my flight.”

Frequently Asked Questions, Brighton Beach
Do you buy bungalows on the Brighton Beach walks, where a car can't pull up to the door?
Yes. The walks and lanes off Brighton 1st through Brighton 4th Streets were laid out for summer cottages, not cars. We buy the house as it stands and handle the cleanout on foot after closing, so you don’t have to arrange a thing.
My mother died abroad and her death certificate isn't in English. Can we still sell her Brighton Beach house?
Usually, yes. Kings County Surrogate’s Court generally needs certified English translations of foreign documents, and your estate attorney can arrange them. A contract can be in place while that is underway, and the closing follows once the court names someone to sign.
The porch on my Brighton bungalow was enclosed years ago without a permit. Is that a problem?
Not for us. Many of these cottages were winterized over the decades with enclosed porches, extra rooms, or a second floor that never reached the certificate of occupancy. We buy the cottage as it was built out, and the DOB paperwork becomes our job after closing.
Dad's name is spelled differently on his deed and his death certificate. Can we still sell his Brighton Beach house?
Usually, yes. Names transliterated from Russian or Ukrainian often come out differently from one document to the next, and title companies see it regularly. Your attorney typically clears it with an affidavit that the names belong to the same person, and we close once the title company is satisfied.
Do you buy condos near the Brighton Beach boardwalk?
Yes, we can buy a condo for cash, as-is, the same way we buy a house. If your apartment is in a co-op building instead, the sale needs board approval, so call us and we’ll tell you straight whether we can help.
After the Brighton Beach house sells, how do the heirs overseas get their share?
The sale proceeds go to the estate at closing, and the executor, working with your estate attorney, distributes them to the heirs, often by international wire, once the estate’s bills and taxes are settled. We pay in full at closing; dividing the money is the estate’s job.
Do I need to clean out the house first?
No. Go through it at your own pace and take what the family wants to keep. Whatever is left in the bungalow or the shed, we carry out after closing.
Are there commissions, fees, or closing costs?
None. You pay no commission and none of the closing costs, and no fees show up later. You receive the offer amount, minus only the mortgage, taxes, or water charges still owed.
