We are a direct cash buyer of Long Island houses.

Below is who we are, how we got here, and the rules we hold ourselves to before any offer goes out the door.

Ben Wagner
Founder · NY Cash Sale · 15+ years
Ben founded NY Cash Sale after 15+ years buying houses across Nassau and Suffolk County. He has personally underwritten thousands of Long Island offers, walked through houses in every condition this market has, and signed contracts with sellers in every situation that pushes a homeowner toward a cash sale: inherited estates, tired landlords, pre-foreclosure, divorce, code violations, and out-of-state heirs who never want to see the property again. He still reviews every offer that goes out the door.
“Every offer we send is one I would feel fine signing if it were on my mom's house. If a number doesn't pass that test, we don't send it.”
The team
Who you actually talk to.
Small team on purpose. The same people who answer the first call are the ones that walk the house and stay on the file through closing. No call center handoffs, no "let me transfer you to my colleague."
Rudy
Acquisitions
Rudy is the first person you will speak with at NY Cash Sale. He will get some basic information about the property and set up an appointment to see the home (if possible).
Chris
Acquisitions
Chris will meet with you at the property, walk the house, price the repairs, and prepares a written offer.

How we operate
Three rules we hold ourselves to.
- 01
A direct buyer, with our own cash
We show you cash proof of funds and post a 10% non-refundable deposit so you can make plans with the confidence that your home is sold. The number on the offer is the number that closes.
- 02
Long Island is the entire service area
We buy in Nassau and Suffolk only. Our team lives here, drives the streets, and underwrites against real Long Island comps from the last 90 days. We are not a national operation routing leads to a local franchisee.
- 03
Written offer, not a verbal price
Within 24 hours of the walkthrough you get a written cash offer. No black box, no end-of-day pressure to sign, no surprise deductions between offer and closing.
