The four-bedroom Melville Road residence was acquired directly by We Buy Long Island Homes Fast from the inheriting seller, and almost the entire property was renovated.

Check the ratings, and demand that anyone making an offer on your home demonstrate they can actually finalize the deal. We purchased this house directly… and it returned to the neighborhood in better shape than when we found it.”— Mike PlactereHUNTINGTON STATION, NY, UNITED STATES, September 2, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — HUNTINGTON STATION, N.Y., Sept. 2nd, 2026 — We Buy Long Island Homes Fast has finished a $155,000 renovation of a four-bedroom home in Huntington Station that it purchased on May 18 directly from a seller who had inherited the property.

The house at 245 Melville Road required improvements in virtually every area. The renovation covered almost the entire 1,552-square-foot residence; only the windows and the boiler were in satisfactory condition to be retained. The updated home is now listed for sale.

The seller acquired the house after her mother’s death and did not wish to assume the responsibility of maintaining it. The sale closed according to the timeline the company had quoted to her.

"She investigated me thoroughly, and I encourage every seller to do the same," said Mike Plactere, owner of We Buy Long Island Homes Fast. "Verify the license, go through the reviews, and make sure that whoever is bidding on your property can prove they actually close. We bought this house directly, handled the work ourselves, and returned it to the neighborhood in better condition than we found it."

The seller did not accept the first offer presented. After receiving Plactere’s business card, she researched cash home buyers throughout Long Island before deciding whom to work with, and noted that Plactere "stood out for being straightforward, transparent, and easy to communicate with."

"He fulfilled every promise and kept me updated throughout the process," the former owner of the home said. "From beginning to end, it was seamless, no surprises, just a straightforward closing on schedule. If you need a trustworthy cash home buyer on Long Island, I would definitely recommend Mike and his team."

Inherited and estate properties rank among the most frequent acquisitions the company handles, often from owners who live outside the area or prefer not to manage repairs, cleanouts, or a conventional listing. We Buy Long Island Homes Fast purchases these houses directly, pays cash, and renovates them rather than assigning contracts to other buyers, and it closes on the seller’s timeline instead of promising unrealistic dates.
