Allston homeowners turn to Boston Investors when a traditional sale doesn't make sense: too slow, too expensive, or too complicated for the situation at hand. We make one fair cash offer, skip the contingencies, and let you pick your closing date.
Whether you're facing a life change, managing a distressed property, or just want out without the hassle of listing, we've handled it before. Our offer comes with no obligation and no fees on your side.
Allston sits on Boston's west side, next to Brighton, Brookline, and Cambridge across the river, a dense mix of triple-deckers, converted student rentals, and long-held family homes. We close with a local Massachusetts 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 Allston home: address, condition, and your ideal timeline. Takes less than two minutes.
We review the details, research recent Allston 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.
Allston is part of Boston, which sits in Suffolk County, and a deed here is recorded at the Suffolk Registry of Deeds downtown. That is simpler than most of Massachusetts, where several counties are split into districts and sellers regularly have their paperwork sent to the wrong office.
What actually shapes a sale in Allston is the housing stock. This is a city of condominiums and of two and three family houses, and each brings its own requirement. A condominium sale needs a 6D certificate from the association under Chapter 183A, Section 6(d), stating what is owed on the unit, and anything unpaid is cleared from your proceeds at closing. A two or three family with tenants in place transfers the leases with the building, and the security deposits and the interest on them have to transfer too. Chapter 186, Section 15B is strict about that and the penalties for getting it wrong are real.
Housing in Allston is also often old, which matters more here than the year built usually suggests. Massachusetts requires the lead paint Property Transfer Notification before the purchase and sale agreement is signed, and unlike the federal rule it sets no construction year threshold at all. Work done without permits is the other recurring find, and in a city with this much converted and subdivided space it turns up often.
In the deals we close, none of that is what stops a sale. A tired Allston house still gets a conventional mortgage. What removes a property from the financed buyer pool is a structural or safety defect: serious foundation problems, major fire damage, severe water intrusion, or electrical and plumbing that is substantially unsafe. That is the line worth knowing before you decide between listing and selling as is.
Questions Allston homeowners ask before accepting a cash offer. Don't see yours? Call or text us directly.
At the Suffolk Registry of Deeds in Boston. Allston is part of Boston in Suffolk County, which is not split into districts, so every deed records at the one downtown office, and we handle that filing as part of closing.
Yes. A lease transfers with the property, and the security deposits and any accrued interest transfer to us at closing under MGL c.186 s.15B, so you do not have to deliver the building vacant.
No. Massachusetts requires the Property Transfer Notification before the purchase and sale is signed under MGL c.111 s.197A, and there is no requirement to delead before selling. We buy as-is and price the condition in.
No. We buy in any condition, from a gut-job triple-decker to a dated condo, so there is nothing to fix or clear out before closing.
Anything secured against the property: your mortgage payoff, property taxes and municipal charges, and any outstanding water and sewer balance. There are no agent commissions or listing fees on a cash sale.
Get a fair, no-obligation cash offer in 24 hours. Close on your schedule, leave anything behind, and pay zero fees or commissions.
