Skip the listings, repairs, and agent fees. Get a fair, no-obligation cash offer within 24 hours and close on the date that works for you.
When a traditional listing doesn't fit the situation, Shrewsbury homeowners call Boston Investors for a clean cash sale. Whether your house sits off Main Street near the town center, over in Edgemere by Lake Quinsigamond, or on a side street off Route 9, we make one fair written offer, skip the open houses and contingencies, and let you close on the date you choose. No repairs, no staging, and no waiting on a buyer's financing.
Maybe you inherited a family home and the siblings would rather settle the estate than renovate it, you are downsizing after forty years in the same cape, or you are done with a rental that needs a roof, a boiler, and a kitchen before anyone would finance it. We have handled all of it. The offer is no-obligation, and you pay nothing in fees or commissions.
We have bought across Shrewsbury, from 1950s and 1960s capes and ranches on smaller lots near the center to colonials in the newer subdivisions on the Northborough side and older lakefront and near-lake houses in Edgemere. We know how condition, lot size, and school district demand interact here, and we close with a Worcester County attorney.
Navigating probate or selling a parent's home for the first time. We keep the process simple.
Ready to downsize or move to assisted living. We buy as-is so there's nothing to fix or stage.
Offloading a rental or portfolio property fast. We close without tenant complications.
No inspections that kill deals, no repair credits, no staging. Whatever shape your property is in, we make a fair cash offer and close on your schedule.
No open houses, no waiting for financing, no surprises at the closing table. Just three straightforward steps from first contact to cash in hand.
Fill out the short form or call us at (617) 539-6162. Share basic details about your Shrewsbury home: address, condition, and your ideal timeline. Takes less than two minutes.
We review the details, research recent Shrewsbury comps, and deliver a fair, written cash offer within 24 hours. No obligation to accept, just a clear number you can evaluate on your own terms.
Accept the offer and choose your closing date. Two to four weeks from a signed agreement is the normal case, and we confirm the date once the closing attorney has checked title. We handle the paperwork, cover closing costs, and wire your payment at closing.

Most sellers are surprised by how little they need to do. We designed our process to put the work on our side, not yours.
Leave the furniture, the junk in the basement, the items in the attic. Take what matters to you and walk away. Our team handles full cleanout at our cost, zero charge to you.
Deferred maintenance, cosmetic damage, major system failures: we factor repair costs into our offer and handle everything post-closing. You'll never need to call a contractor.
We cover the standard closing costs and charge no commissions or fees, so you write no checks to sell. What still comes out of the proceeds is anything secured against the property: your mortgage payoff, property taxes and municipal charges, and any water and sewer balance.
Shrewsbury is in Worcester County, one of the five Massachusetts counties that Chapter 36, Section 1 divides into registry districts, and this is a case where the split works in the seller's favor. The Worcester northern district, whose office is in Fitchburg, is a fixed list of five communities. Shrewsbury is not one of them, so its deeds record at the Worcester district registry in the city of Worcester, which is the answer most sellers guess. The seller who is caught out is the one who moved here from Leominster or Lunenburg and assumes the Fitchburg office still applies.
Shrewsbury had 38,325 residents at the 2020 census, and while it is a town rather than a city it is far above the five thousand that matters for the municipal lien certificate. Under Chapter 60, Section 23 the collector has ten days from a written application to furnish it, and it lists the taxes, assessments and water rates and charges that are liens on the property. Filed within 150 days it discharges the parcel from any lien that does not appear on it. Whatever it does show comes out of the proceeds at closing, with the mortgage payoff and the attorney and title charges. That certificate is where a forgotten water and sewer balance surfaces, and it is the most common reason a seller's net differs from the number they had in mind.
The rest of the paperwork follows the property. A condominium needs the statement of unpaid common expenses under Chapter 183A, Section 6(d), which the organization of unit owners furnishes within ten business days of a written request. A house with a rented unit transfers the lease with the deed, and under Chapter 186, Section 15B the security deposit and its accrued interest pass to the new owner, who notifies the tenant within 45 days. The lead paint Property Transfer Notification under Chapter 111, Section 197A comes before the purchase and sale agreement, and the Massachusetts rule sets no construction year threshold. On sale, Chapter 148, Section 26F puts the duty to equip the house with approved smoke detectors on the seller.
Our own numbers, stated plainly. Offers usually land between 60 and 70 percent of what the house will be worth once the work is done, closer to 55 to 60 where the rehab is heavy and up to 70 to 75 where the work is genuinely cosmetic, before transaction, financing and holding costs. That is rarely the highest number available to a Shrewsbury seller with time and equity, and we say so. It is the certain one. Count on two to four weeks from a signed agreement as the normal close, about a week was the fastest we have ever done and it stayed the exception, and we do not commit to a date until the closing attorney has checked title. A house with a dated kitchen still gets a conventional mortgage. A structural or safety defect is what removes it from the financed market.
Questions Shrewsbury homeowners ask before accepting a cash offer. Don't see yours? Call or text us directly.
We usually close in two to four weeks from signed agreement, assuming clean title and no unusual estate or probate issues. If you need more time, whether for a move, an estate matter, or just peace of mind, we work around your schedule. We've closed in about a week where the property was vacant and the title was clean, but that is the exception rather than the norm.
No. We buy Shrewsbury homes in any condition: roofing problems, outdated systems, unfinished renovations, water damage, you name it. We price the repair costs into our offer so you never have to spend a dollar before closing.
You pay no agent commissions and no listing fees, and we cover the standard closing costs, so there is nothing to pay out of pocket. What still comes out of the proceeds at closing is anything secured against the property: your mortgage payoff, property taxes and municipal charges, and any outstanding water and sewer balance.
Shrewsbury's market is one of the most competitive in Worcester County, driven by the school district and by buyers moving out from Worcester. Most demand comes from families relocating for the schools, buyers priced out of Westborough and Northborough, and commuters who want Route 9, Interstate 290, and the Mass Pike within minutes. Inventory turns over quickly, so updated colonials and well kept capes often draw multiple offers within a week, while homes with dated systems, a needed roof, or an unfinished renovation still get passed over because buyers here expect move-in condition. Our offers reflect recent Worcester County comps, current Shrewsbury assessed values, and what's actually selling here, not a generic Central Massachusetts average.
Yes. We work with inherited and probate properties regularly. Whether the estate is fully settled, mid-process, or involves multiple heirs, we can structure the closing to fit where you are. Our team coordinates with estate attorneys and can work directly with executors or personal representatives.
We handle these situations all the time. Property tax arrears, mechanic's liens, HOA liens, and similar encumbrances can typically be resolved at closing from the sale proceeds. Our title team identifies everything upfront and resolves it in one transaction so you walk away clean.
Get a fair, no-obligation cash offer in 24 hours. Close on your schedule, leave anything behind, and pay zero fees or commissions.
