Queen Anne Porches By Forest Park, Two-Families Down By Liberty Avenue
Richmond Hill is really two housing stocks. North of Jamaica Avenue, on the quiet streets that run up to Forest Park and Park Lane South, stand the big frame Victorians from around the turn of the 20th century, many of them Queen Anne houses with wraparound porches, bay windows, and original woodwork under a layer or two of siding. Toward Atlantic and Liberty Avenues, the blocks fill in with closer-set frame and brick houses and two-families, most built from the 1920s on. The J runs over Jamaica Avenue, and the A runs over Liberty Avenue to its last stop at Lefferts Boulevard. Jamaica Hospital anchors the Van Wyck edge.
The two halves sell for different reasons. Up by the park, it’s usually an estate: a Victorian that has been in one family for generations, with knob-and-tube wiring behind the plaster and a porch that needs real carpentry. Down in South Richmond Hill, along the stretch of Liberty Avenue known as Little Guyana and the blocks of 101st Avenue co-named Punjab Avenue, it’s more often a two-family whose owners are retiring, or an estate with heirs in Guyana, Trinidad, or India. Prime Realty Buyers is a Queens-based cash buyer just down Liberty Avenue in Ozone Park, and we buy both kinds of house as they stand.
Why Richmond Hill Homeowners Sell To Prime Realty Buyers
Richmond Hill houses tend to be very old, very full, or both. Getting one ready for a retail buyer is a project most families never planned on, so we buy before the project starts.
We price the house as it stands, explain the number, and wait on the family’s paperwork if it takes a while. If we aren’t the right buyer, we’ll tell you.
We Buy Richmond Hill Houses As-Is
Old wiring and a tenant downstairs are both fine with us.

Why Choose Prime Realty Buyers
Prime Realty Buyers is based at 97-39 89th Street in Ozone Park, a few minutes from Richmond Hill by Atlantic Avenue or Liberty Avenue. Call 516-218-0365 and a real person answers. Chris walks the house himself, Victorian or two-family, and goes over the offer item by item, so you can see exactly what the wiring or the basement unit did to the number.
We send proof of funds in writing on request and work alongside your estate attorney, including when heirs abroad sign before a notary or at a U.S. embassy. You pick the closing date. If the family needs time for a memorial or to divide the furniture, the closing waits.

Real Richmond Hill Seller Stories
“My father’s two-family on Punjab Avenue went into probate after he passed, and my mother didn’t want the house shown while she was grieving. Chris came once, with her blessing, and Prime Realty Buyers signed a contract with the estate. They waited four months for the Letters without one call to rush us, and we closed ten days after the court issued them.”
“My uncle left his South Richmond Hill house to me and two cousins. I live outside Toronto, and they’re both in Florida. The basement was rented with no lease, and none of us knew how to handle that from so far away. Prime Realty Buyers bought the house with the tenant in place, worked everything through our attorney, and we closed in five weeks without anyone flying in.”
“Our Victorian near Forest Park needed a new porch, and when an electrician opened a wall he found knob-and-tube wiring through the whole second floor. Then the plaster started coming down in the back bedroom. We didn’t have the money or the patience for a restoration. Prime Realty Buyers bought it as it was, Chris explained how he priced the wiring and the porch, and we closed in 17 days.”
“I grew up in our house on 115th Street and came back to care for my parents. After they were gone, it was just me in eleven rooms. I wanted a one-bedroom near my nieces in Bayside, not a year of plaster and paint. Prime Realty Buyers made a written offer the day after Chris walked through, and I took my time deciding what to keep. We closed in a month.”
“I owned a two-family off Liberty Avenue with a basement unit the previous owner built. After the Ida floods in 2021, my insurance company and my attorney both started asking about it, and the upstairs tenant was months behind. Prime Realty Buyers bought the house with both units occupied and the basement as it was, and we closed in 21 days.”

Frequently Asked Questions, Richmond Hill
My family's Queen Anne house north of Jamaica Avenue still has the original porch and wiring. Will you buy it before anything is restored?
Yes. Plenty of the Victorians near Forest Park still have knob-and-tube wiring, original plaster, and porches that need real carpentry. We buy them unrestored and show you how we priced the work, so you can see where the number comes from.
My Richmond Hill Victorian has asbestos siding over the clapboard. Is that a problem?
Not for us. Asbestos shingle and aluminum siding went over a lot of Richmond Hill houses decades ago, and buyers’ inspectors flag it. We buy the house with the siding as it is and handle any abatement after closing.
Do you buy the attached and semi-attached houses in South Richmond Hill, not just the Victorians?
Yes. We buy across South Richmond Hill, from the blocks off Atlantic Avenue down past Liberty Avenue and 101st Avenue, attached, semi-attached, or detached, with or without a basement unit. Every house gets one walkthrough and a written cash offer within 24 hours.
The tenants in my South Richmond Hill two-family have no lease. Can you still buy it?
Yes. We buy two-families off Liberty Avenue and 101st Avenue occupied, lease or no lease, with tenants who pay and tenants who don’t. You don’t need to empty a unit or start a Housing Court case before closing.
Is the basement apartment in my South Richmond Hill house going to stop the sale?
Not with us. A basement unit that isn’t on the certificate of occupancy usually stops a buyer’s mortgage, and since the Ida floods in September 2021, attorneys look at them harder. We pay cash and buy the house with the unit as it is.
My mother moved into a nursing home. Can her Richmond Hill house be sold while she's there?
Usually, yes. If she can sign, or someone holds a valid power of attorney, the sale goes ahead like any other. If not, an elder law attorney can explain the guardianship process, and we’ll wait for it. Meanwhile we buy the house as it is, with her things still inside.
Do I need to clean out the house first?
No. A Victorian with three floors of belongings is fine with us. Take what matters to the family, and we’ll clear the attic, the rooms, and the basement after closing.
Are there commissions, fees, or closing costs?
No. There’s no commission, we cover the closing costs, and there are no fees. You receive the offer amount less the mortgage, taxes, or liens owed on the house.
