Sell your house fast in Niagara Falls, NY, in any condition
Niagara Falls has some of the oldest housing in Western New York and some of the widest price swings between neighborhoods. A house on the North End or in LaSalle can sell for three times what a similar house brings near Highland Avenue. If your house needs more work than it is worth, has back taxes, or has been sitting empty, Irish Jones Home Buyers will buy it as-is. Written cash offer within 24 hours, closing in 7 to 14 days.

Selling a house in Niagara Falls: what's different locally
The average single-family home in Niagara Falls is 78 years old, and in the 14301 ZIP it is 93. Roofs, knob-and-tube wiring, and foundations are common inspection failures. Niagara County tax foreclosure moves faster than mortgage foreclosure, and the city's vacant property registration adds cost to an empty house every month it sits. We buy across all five city ZIPs, price the condition in, and fold county and city arrears into the payoff at closing.
How long it takes to sell a house in Niagara Falls
Niagara Falls homes typically go pending in 11 to 19 days, then take around 58 days to close with a financed buyer, about 10 weeks in total. Some listings sit far longer: Redfin shows lower-priced Niagara Falls listings averaging 66 days on market with one offer. A cash sale to Irish Jones closes in 7 to 14 days.

Niagara Falls housing market in 2026
- Typical home value, up 7.1% (Zillow, Jun 2026)
- $176,530
- Median sale price (Zillow)
- $135,000
- Average single-family home age (ATTOM)

- Irish Jones can close in
- 7 to 14 days
Niagara Falls home values rose 7.1% in the past year to a typical value of $176,530, and homes go pending in about 11 days. But the median sale price was $135,000, well below the typical value, which tells you a lot of what actually sells here is older, lower-priced stock. The spread by ZIP is dramatic: the median sale in 14301 was about $140,000 while 14304 (LaSalle) was about $220,000. When a house needs a $20,000 roof and the house is worth $110,000, a listing does not work, because no financed buyer can close on it and no agent wants to carry it. That is the house we buy.

Quick answers for Niagara Falls sellers.
Irish Jones Home Buyers, the cash home buying division of Irish Jones, a licensed NY brokerage (#10491209386). We buy in our own name with our own funds. We do not assign your contract to another investor.
No. We walk the house once, price the condition into the written offer, and that is the number at closing. There is no inspection contingency and no second negotiation.
Yes. New York closings are attorney closings, so your own attorney reviews the contract and attends closing. We work with them directly and can recommend local attorneys if you do not have one.
In a traditional sale, sellers typically pay about 1.1% in closing costs plus the 0.4% New York State transfer tax, on top of agent commission. When you sell to us, we cover the standard seller closing costs. Ask us about the transfer tax on your specific sale.
Yes. Most sellers do. At closing the title company pays off your loan from the sale price and sends you the balance. Get a payoff letter from your lender so you can compare it to our offer.
No. Leave what you do not want. Our crews handle cleanout and repairs after closing. Half-finished projects, old roofs, dated kitchens, and code issues are all normal for us.
Check three things: a real local address, a license you can look up, and proof of funds. Our office is at 1305 Bailey Avenue, Buffalo. Our NY license number is on every page. We will show proof of funds on request. If a buyer will not do all three, walk away.
Once title is clear, 7 to 14 days is typical. Liens, probate, or missing signatures can add time, which is why we start the title search the day you accept.
Yes: North End, LaSalle, Hyde Park, Deveaux, the East Side, Little Italy, and downtown. All five city ZIPs.
Faster than with a mortgage. County tax foreclosure runs on a fixed calendar. Call us with your notice and we will tell you whether a closing before the deadline is realistic.
Yes. Copper theft and vandalism are common in empty Niagara Falls houses and they are priced into the as-is offer, not a reason to decline.
Yes. We are 25 minutes away, we buy across Niagara County, and we handle the walkthrough locally.
We buy houses across Niagara Falls, NY.
