Houses we see in North Kingstown
North Kingstown's houses are newer than the state's as a whole, with a median build year of 1973 against 1962 statewide, but septic systems, flood zones and historic district rules still affect how a house sells here. I Buy Rhode Island Houses buys houses in every one of these situations, as-is.
- Public sewer reaches only Quonset Point and the Davisville Business Park, Devils Foot Road and Post Road South. Houses everywhere else rely on a septic system or a cesspool, and owners send their inspection reports or pump-out receipts to the town's Department of Water Supply. A system that's overdue or failing doesn't stop us from making an offer.
- North Kingstown has about 30 miles of coastline, and the town's 2019 comprehensive plan counts more than 3,000 homes and businesses in areas exposed to coastal flooding, river flooding or storm surge. Parts of Wickford Village flood with seawater several times a year at extreme high tides. We buy houses in flood zones, including ones that have taken on water.
- Wickford Village has the town's greatest concentration of historic buildings, many from the Revolutionary era. Any exterior change in the local historic district, including repairs that don't match the original materials or design, needs a Certificate of Appropriateness from the Historic District Commission. When you sell as-is, those approvals become the next owner's job.
- Lafayette, Hamilton, Belleville, Shady Lea and Silver Springs grew up around mills on the Hunt, Annaquatucket and Pettaquamscutt rivers, and Hamilton dates to the late 1600s. If a mill-village house needs work, I Buy Rhode Island Houses will buy it that way.
- About 11% of North Kingstown's housing units are in two- to four-unit buildings. We buy them with the tenants still living there.
How selling your North Kingstown house to us works
Tell us about the house
Call 401-267-1400 or send the form with the address. If you know whether the house is on septic or has ever taken on water, mention that too.
Get a written cash offer
We'll walk through the house with you, along with the latest septic inspection report if you have one, and put a cash offer in writing. It's below what a full retail sale might bring, and in exchange you get speed and a sure sale with no repairs or showings. You don't have to take it.
Close on your date
You choose the closing day, as soon as 7 days out. Closing happens at a Rhode Island title company or attorney's office, I Buy Rhode Island Houses covers the closing costs, and no commission comes out of your sale. If you live in the house, North Kingstown's 5% homestead exemption stays on it until then. More on how selling to us works.
What North Kingstown sellers call us about
Selling a house in North Kingstown: common questions
Do you buy houses in every part of North Kingstown?
Yes. I Buy Rhode Island Houses buys houses all over North Kingstown, including Wickford, Saunderstown, Plum Beach, Davisville, Quonset, Lafayette and Hamilton. We buy in any condition, and you don't clean out or repair anything first.
My house is near the water or in a flood zone. Will you still buy it?
Yes. I Buy Rhode Island Houses buys North Kingstown houses in flood zones, and houses that have flooded before, as they are. FEMA has 296 flood insurance claims on record in town since 1978, more from the March 2010 nor'easter than from any other storm. Tell us about any past flooding when you call.
I inherited a house in North Kingstown. Can I sell before probate is done?
Often, yes. If your loved one lived in North Kingstown, the estate is usually handled by the North Kingstown Probate Court, which meets at 8:30 a.m. on the third Wednesday of the month at the Municipal Offices, 100 Fairway Drive. The executor can sell once they have authority, from a power of sale in the will or a license from the court. I Buy Rhode Island Houses can make an offer before that authority is in place and close once it is. How selling a house in probate works.
The house still has a cesspool. Can I sell it?
Yes. Rhode Island's Cesspool Act requires a cesspool to be replaced with a septic system, or the house tied into sewer, within 12 months after a sale. The law doesn't say whether the buyer or the seller pays, so it's part of the deal. You don't have to replace it before selling your North Kingstown house to I Buy Rhode Island Houses.
I live out of state. Can I sell my North Kingstown house remotely?
Yes. A sale to I Buy Rhode Island Houses mostly happens by phone and email, and the closing office will tell you how to sign from where you live. For an out-of-state seller, Rhode Island law generally has the buyer hold back 6% of the net proceeds at closing for the Division of Taxation, and that money is credited toward any Rhode Island income tax owed on the sale.
Who pays the closing costs?
We do. Sell your North Kingstown house to I Buy Rhode Island Houses and the closing costs are ours to cover, with no agent commission either. If you're weighing a listing instead, who pays closing costs in Rhode Island explains how they work on a listed sale.
