Pleasure Bay Properties

How it works

Three steps, no surprises.

No listing, no showings, no strangers walking through your house on a Sunday.

Tell us about it

Fill out the form or just call. We'll ask a few questions about the house and what you're hoping to do.

We come look at it

One of us walks the property in person — not an inspector, not a contractor with a clipboard. Then we give you a real number.

You pick the date

If the number works, we close on your timeline at a local attorney's office. If it doesn't, no hard feelings.

Why sell to us instead of listing?

The house doesn't have to be ready Roof, furnace, hoarding, fire damage, a basement full of forty years of stuff — we've seen it. Take what you want and leave the rest.
Nothing comes out of your pocket No commission, no listing fees, no closing costs on your side, no repair credits negotiated after an inspection.
It actually closes We buy with our own money. There's no bank, no appraisal contingency, and no buyer backing out three weeks in.
Complicated is fine Inherited property, an estate still in probate, tenants who won't leave, back taxes, a lien you just found out about. These are normal.

"We're not a franchise and we're not a hedge fund. We're two guys from Southie who own about ten units up in Manchester. When you call, you get one of us."

We buy across New Hampshire and northern Massachusetts, and we keep most of what we buy. That's why we'd rather give you a straight number than waste your afternoon.

Questions

The things people ask us.

Do I have to fix anything first?

No. Don't paint, don't clean out the basement, don't call a contractor. We buy the house exactly as it sits, and anything you don't want to move, you can leave behind.

What does it cost me?

Nothing. There's no commission because there's no agent, and we cover the standard closing costs. The number we agree on is the number you walk away with, minus any mortgage payoff or liens on the property.

How fast can you close?

As quickly as two to three weeks if you need it, since there's no lender involved. But fast isn't the point — if you need six months to find your next place or settle an estate, we'll wait. You set the date.

What if there are tenants in it?

That's fine, and you don't need to remove them. We own and operate rentals ourselves, so an occupied building is normal for us. Just tell us what's in place.

Am I obligated to anything if I fill out the form?

No. You're asking what we'd pay for it. If the number isn't right for you, say so and that's the end of it — we won't put you on a drip campaign or keep calling.

Will I get less than listing with an agent?

Sometimes, and we'll be straight with you about it. A clean, updated house in a hot market will usually do better on the MLS, and if that's your situation we'll tell you to list it. Where we're competitive is when the house needs work, the timing is tight, or the situation is complicated — once you subtract commissions, repairs, carrying costs and months of uncertainty, the gap is often much smaller than people expect.

Where do you buy?

All of southern and central New Hampshire — Manchester, Nashua, Concord, Milford, Derry, Rochester, Dover and the surrounding towns — plus northern Massachusetts including Lowell, Lawrence, Haverhill and Methuen. If you're just outside that, call anyway.

We buy houses in any condition.
