Frequently Asked Questions

How quickly can I sell my house in Merrick?

We specialize in rapid transactions. After you accept our cash offer, we can typically close on your Merrick property in as little as 7-10 days, or on a timeline that perfectly suits your needs. This is significantly faster than the average 45 days a home typically sits on the market here.

Will you buy my house even if it needs significant repairs?

Absolutely! We buy homes in Merrick in any condition, completely as-is. You won't need to worry about fixing aging galvanized steel pipes and outdated electrical systems, roof damage, or any other structural issues. We handle all repairs after purchase.

Are there any fees or commissions when I sell to MyFastCashOffer?

No, there are zero fees or commissions. Unlike a traditional sale through a realtor like Compass where you might pay up to 6% in commissions (which could be $42,000 on a $700,000 home), our offer is the exact amount you receive at closing. We cover all standard closing costs.

What if my Merrick property is in a flood zone like Zone AE?

We have extensive experience with properties in various conditions and locations, including those in FEMA flood zones like Zone AE in Merrick. We understand the specific risks of coastal flooding and severe storm surges in the area and are prepared to make a fair offer regardless.

Merrick has several important local landmarks that are central to daily life. These include the Merrick LIRR Station, a key transportation hub for commuters, and the Merrick Library, a vital community resource for residents.
