Sell Your Hempstead House Fast For Cash, Every Situation, As-Is
A Local Cash Buyer For Hempstead Homeowners Who Need A Real Closing, Not Another Six Months Of Showings, Inspections, And Buyers Who Walk.
The Village of Hempstead is the busiest real estate market in Nassau County. More transactions, more rentals, more inherited homes, more multi-family stock, and more foreclosure activity than any other Nassau municipality. The Nassau County seat. Multi-cultural with Caribbean, Haitian, African-American, Hispanic, Italian, and Irish family lineages. Two-family rentals along Fulton Avenue, inherited capes off Greenwich Street, pre-foreclosure properties before the auction, vacant homes sitting since a parent passed, houses near Front Street with code violations nobody wants to touch. Prime Realty Buyers buys all of it for cash.

The Village of Hempstead, the Fulton Avenue corridor, the streets around Front Street, the neighborhoods near the LIRR station, the Greenwich Street area, plus surrounding central Nassau communities including Uniondale, West Hempstead, Roosevelt, Baldwin, Garden City, Freeport, East Meadow, Rockville Centre, Salisbury, and Mineola.
Why Hempstead Homeowners Sell To Prime Realty Buyers
Hempstead has the most diverse seller profile of any town in Nassau. The reasons people call us are wider here than anywhere else in the county. Foreclosure, tenant complications, multi-generation estates, squatters, code violations, title clouds, short sales, investor exits, all of it routinely. When a Hempstead house finally sells to us, the reason is almost always urgent.
Foreclosure pressure and pre-auction sales. Hempstead has one of the highest foreclosure filing rates in Nassau. When the Nassau County Sheriff’s auction date is set, the clock matters more than the price. We have stopped Hempstead foreclosure auctions with as little as a week’s notice: Sunday-night call, Monday-morning walkthrough, Friday closing at the title company staying late. The earlier you reach us, the more options you have. Behind on payments without an auction date set yet is a different conversation, but we’re built for both.
Two-family and multi-family rental fatigue plus tenants in place. Hempstead has more legal and converted multi-family inventory than almost any other Nassau village, with the rental corridor thick along Fulton Avenue, Front Street, and Greenwich Street. Tired landlords burned out from holdover tenants, non-paying occupants, and Nassau housing court that drags 13-18 months are a daily call. We buy occupied: paying, non-paying, holdover, in active eviction, or with squatters. The downstairs unit doesn’t need to be ready. The Village violations don’t have to be cleared first.
Multigenerational immigrant family heirs and international probate. Hempstead has deep multigenerational roots: Caribbean, Haitian, African-American, Hispanic, Italian, and Irish family lineages going back generations. As original owners pass, the heirs often live out of state or out of country, in Florida, Georgia, the Carolinas, the Dominican Republic, Haiti, Jamaica, Trinidad, El Salvador, and beyond. Coordinating a sale through Nassau Surrogate’s Court with international heir signing and Spanish-speaking or Creole-speaking documentation is the kind of multi-jurisdictional work that drags retail listings for a year. We close it remotely.
Village of Hempstead code violations, open permits, and clouded title. Hempstead has stricter code enforcement than most of Nassau, especially on the multi-family stock. Open Village violations, expired permits, illegal accessory units, unpermitted basement apartments, missing COs on dormers, and Village DOB issues stop retail closings cold. Add the layer of clouded titles from heir issues, missing signatures, unsatisfied judgments, and old liens never cleared. We close on properties retail buyers and their lenders walk from. Patient title work included.
Other reasons sellers call us:
Tax-pressure situations with arrears, tax liens, judgments, mechanic’s liens, and pre-foreclosure auction dates set
- Investor portfolio exits and rental liquidations as carrying costs rise
- Short-sale candidates underwater on the mortgage where the lender will negotiate
- Vacant homes draining cash, hoarder conditions, full estate cleanouts, fire/water/storm damage
- Properties adjacent to commercial corridors plus Spanish-speaking and Haitian Creole coordination
If any of this is your situation, you’re who this page was built for.

What Hempstead Homeowners Say
Pre-Foreclosure With An Auction Date 11 Days Out
“I had fallen behind on the mortgage after a job loss in 2023 and the auction date was set for the following Wednesday. Eleven days. I had spoken to two other cash buyers who said they could close fast, but neither could actually fund. Prime Realty Buyers took the call on a Sunday night, walked the property Monday morning, and we closed on Friday with the title company staying late. The auction was canceled and I walked away with something instead of nothing.”
Two-Family With A Holdover And Code Violations
“I owned a legal two-family near the Fulton Avenue corridor for 16 years. The downstairs tenant became a holdover situation that took 13 months in housing court. While that was happening, the Village hit me with violations I couldn’t even respond to because I didn’t have access to the unit. By the end of it I was completely done. Prime Realty Buyers bought the property with the tenant still in place, took on the violations, and didn’t try to use my situation against me on price.”
Inherited House Packed With Forty Years Of Contents
“My mother lived in her Hempstead house from 1984 until she passed last year. Every closet, the basement, the attic, the garage. We’re talking about forty years of life, and not a single thing thrown out. My brother and I both work full time and live in Brooklyn and New Jersey. The thought of taking weekends off to clear it for the next nine months was a non-starter. Prime Realty Buyers took the house exactly as it was, and we kept what mattered.”
Title Cloud That Other Buyers Walked From
“The house had been in my family since 1977. When my uncle passed, we found out there were issues with the deed from a transfer in the early 90s that had never been properly cleared. Two retail buyers walked when their attorneys reviewed title. A third cash buyer made an offer, then disappeared after a week. Prime Realty Buyers took it on, worked with our attorney on the title work, and we closed in about six weeks once the cloud was cleared. They actually did the work.”
Vacant Squatter-Occupied Property
“After my grandmother passed, the house sat empty for several months while we worked through her estate. Somewhere in there, someone moved in. We had no idea until a neighbor told us. Trying to sell a house with an unauthorized occupant on the retail market was impossible. Every showing fell apart once the agent figured out what was going on. Prime Realty Buyers bought the property as it was. They handled everything after closing.”

Frequently Asked Questions
My Hempstead house has a foreclosure auction date set. Can you really close in time?
Yes. We’ve stopped foreclosure auctions on Hempstead houses with as little as a week’s notice. The Sheriff’s sale clock is short, but the path is straightforward when the buyer is local, funded, and ready. The key is calling immediately. The earlier you reach us, the more options you have.
My Hempstead house has major repairs needed. Is that a problem?
Not at all. Major repair situations are normal for the homes we look at every week in Hempstead. We expect the condition. We price for it. You don’t fix anything.
Do you buy two-family and multi-family homes in Hempstead?
Yes. Two-family, three-family, and small multi-family rentals are a regular part of what we buy along Fulton Avenue, Front Street, and Greenwich Street. Including occupied properties.
Will you buy a Hempstead rental with tenants still in it?
Yes. We buy occupied properties, including ones with paying tenants, non-paying tenants, holdover tenants, or active eviction proceedings. You don’t have to deliver the property vacant, and you don’t have to wait out housing court before selling.
What about properties with squatters or unauthorized occupants?
Yes. Squatter situations are a recurring Hempstead reality, especially on vacant inherited or pre-foreclosure properties. We buy as-is and handle the resolution after closing.
Do you buy houses with Village of Hempstead code violations?
Yes. Open code violations, expired permits, unpermitted basement apartments, illegal accessory units, missing COs, and unresolved DOB issues are all situations we handle directly. We take them on after closing.
What about title problems, judgments, or tax liens?
Yes. Hempstead has more clouded title situations than most central Nassau markets. We work patiently through title issues. Judgments, old mortgages that were never satisfied, missing heir signatures, mechanic’s liens, and tax liens are all problems we deal with regularly.
Can you handle estates with heirs in other states or countries?
Yes. We work with heirs in Florida, Georgia, the Carolinas, the Dominican Republic, Haiti, Jamaica, Trinidad, El Salvador, and beyond every week. Documents can be signed and notarized through standard channels in any country, including consular notarization. Spanish-speaking and Haitian Creole coordination available. The closing happens at a Nassau County title company.
Can you buy an inherited Hempstead home that's still in probate?
Yes. We work with families in Hempstead every month who are mid-probate. We sign a contract while probate is pending and close as soon as the attorney has Letters Testamentary in hand. Surrogate’s Court is in Mineola, which makes coordination straightforward.
Do you handle short sales when the owner is underwater?
Sometimes, depending on the lender and the situation. Hempstead has a meaningful share of underwater properties, especially on multi-family rentals with carrying costs that flipped the math. Call and we’ll be straight about whether the numbers work.
¿Compran casas en Hempstead si los herederos están en otro país?
Sí. Trabajamos cada semana con familias cuyos herederos viven en la República Dominicana, Haití, Jamaica, Trinidad, El Salvador y más allá. Los documentos se pueden firmar y notarizar a distancia. Llame al 516-218-0365 para una conversación en español. We answer Spanish and Haitian Creole calls every week.
