A community’s health, vitality and quality of life can be measured by the condition of its properties. Neat neighborhoods and safe, well maintained structures also keep real estate values stable for property owners; attract customers for businesses; and enhance the images of urban based corporations. Rochester’s Certificate of Occupancy (C of O) program requires regularly scheduled and ongoing property maintenance inspections, based on local, state and federal code standards. C of O’s are required to be renewed for any structure that has residential rental dwelling units. One and two family structures are renewed every six years; multiple dwellings units are renewed every three years. Your Rochester house purchase will come complete with this, so you can purchase with confidence! Click here to learn more.

HOW TO BUY

1. Select a House.
Pick a house that appeals to you and fits your budget. Or, if you need help selecting one, please call or contact us. We can provide additional information and pictures. We’re glad to help! Once you have chosen a property, let us know (form below). We will email you a contract and application with and you will need to make a $5000 deposit to reserve the house for you. You have an “option period” (7 day free-look).
2. We Prepare Documents.
American Full House will reserve the house. We prepare and email a set of purchase/LLC documents for you to sign and courier back. Based on your application, we open up the LLC bank account with your name. Along with this we have the house professionally inspected to verify it’s condition. We will arrange to have any major repair items (if any) fixed. You will receive an copy of this via email.
3. Make Final Payment.
Once the property has passed the independent inspection, you make the balance of the payment and the property is officially yours! The property title and lease is transferred to you/your new LLC and the rents starting coming to you. Every property is purchased with “title insurance” which guarantees that the property of free of any encumbrances, liens, defects, etc.
All properties are subject to availability and are sold on a first-come, first-served basis. If you cancel the transaction, you will owe only actual expenses such as professional property inspection (approx $400) and the one-time LLC formation fee ($1525). However, the LLC can be used for any future purchases. American Full House is assigned a 2% interest in the LLC; this allows us to run the LLC for you and execute contracts on your behalf (with written permission from you). Cash transactions only; we do not have financing available for foreign buyers.
