From West Medford to the Hillside, we buy Medford homes for cash in any condition. Get a fair, no-obligation offer within 24 hours and close on the date that works for you.
Medford is a Middlesex County city of about 60,000 on the Mystic River, five miles north of downtown Boston, bordered by Somerville, Arlington, Winchester, Stoneham, Malden, and Everett. Tufts University straddles the Somerville line, the Green Line Extension now ends at Medford/Tufts, and between the Orange Line at Wellington and commuter rail at West Medford, few cities this side of the river are better connected. When a traditional sale doesn't fit your situation, Boston Investors makes one fair, written cash offer within 24 hours, skips the inspections and financing contingencies, and lets you pick your closing date, usually two to four weeks from a signed agreement.
Medford is expensive, and the figures quoted for it describe renovated, move-in-ready listings. That is not a useful benchmark for a property that needs work. Whether you own a Victorian in West Medford, a two-family in South Medford or on the Hillside near Tufts, a colonial in the Lawrence Estates, or a condo near Wellington, we price the property as it stands and buy as-is. No repairs, no cleanout, no fees on your side.
Condition is not a disqualifier here. We buy houses that need everything and houses that need nothing, and the difference shows up in the number rather than in whether we are interested. We close with a local Massachusetts attorney and move on your timeline, not ours.
Settling an estate with a century-old Victorian or a two-family that needs work? We navigate Middlesex County probate timelines and buy properties other buyers walk away from.
Done with three floors of stairs or another winter of maintaining an older Medford home? We buy as-is so there's nothing to fix or stage.
Offloading a tired two-family or triple-decker? We close with tenants in place or between leases, no complications.
A huge share of Medford's housing went up between the streetcar decades and World War II, so knob-and-tube wiring, horsehair plaster, aging sill plates, and roofs past their lifespan come with the territory. None of it stops our offer. Whatever shape your Medford property is in, we make a fair cash offer and close on your schedule.
No open houses, no waiting on buyer 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 Medford home: address, condition, and your ideal timeline. Takes less than two minutes.
We review the details, pull the recent comparable sales that actually match your property, whether it sits in West Medford, South Medford, on the Hillside, or near Wellington, and deliver a fair, written cash offer within 24 hours. No obligation to accept.
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 attic full of boxes, the basement of a home the family has held for generations. Take what matters to you and walk away. Our team handles full cleanout at our cost, zero charge to you.
Knob-and-tube wiring, aging boilers, roofs past their lifespan, water-stained plaster in a streetcar-era two-family: we factor repair costs into our offer and handle everything after 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.
Medford records at Cambridge. Middlesex County runs two registry districts under Chapter 36, Section 1, and the northern one at Lowell is a closed list: Lowell, Billerica, Carlisle, Chelmsford, Dracut, Dunstable, Tewksbury, Tyngsborough, Westford and Wilmington. Everything else in the county, Medford included, goes to the southern district office in Cambridge.
With 59,659 residents at the 2020 census, Medford is dense enough that the two and three family building is a normal thing to own, and that changes a sale in ways a single family sale never involves. Leases transfer with the deed. Under Chapter 186, Section 15B the security deposits and the interest accrued on them transfer to the new owner, who becomes liable for holding and returning them, and the statute is strict about the mechanics. If the property is instead a condominium, the association has to produce the 6D statement required by Chapter 183A, Section 6(d) showing what is owed on the unit before that can be settled at closing.
Older housing here also means two items that are easy to leave too late. The lead paint Property Transfer Notification under Chapter 111, Section 197A has to be given before the purchase and sale agreement is signed, and it applies regardless of when the house was built. And Chapter 148, Section 26F puts the duty on the seller to equip the property with approved smoke detectors on sale, with the local fire department enforcing it.
As for what we do: offers generally run 60 to 70 percent of after repair value, 55 to 60 on heavy rehab, 70 to 75 on clean cosmetic work. Two to four weeks from a signed agreement is the normal close, about a week has happened once and we quote it as the exception it was, and no date is promised before the closing attorney has checked title. The offer is not your net, because the mortgage payoff, property taxes and municipal charges, and water and sewer balances come out of the proceeds. What does not stop a sale is the house being dated. What does is a structural or safety defect, and that is the decision point between listing and selling as is.

At the Middlesex South Registry of Deeds in Cambridge. Middlesex County has two districts, and Medford records at Cambridge with the rest of the southern county, while the towns around Lowell record at the Middlesex North office.
Yes. The lease transfers with the property and the security deposit and interest transfer to us at closing under MGL c.186 s.15B, so you do not need to deliver it vacant.
No. Knob-and-tube wiring, old heating and tired roofs are common in Medford's older stock and are priced into our as-is offer.
The Massachusetts Property Transfer Notification before the purchase and sale is signed under MGL c.111 s.197A. No deleading is required to sell; we buy as-is.
None on our side. Your mortgage payoff, property taxes and municipal charges, and any water and sewer balance come out of the proceeds.
From the Mystic Lakes to the Fells, we make selling simple. Get a fair, no-obligation cash offer in 24 hours, close on your schedule, and pay zero fees or commissions.
