Selling in New Britain

What is different about selling a house in New Britain

New Britain is an older industrial city with many multi-family homes, and the city actively enforces housing and blight rules, so the condition of a property can matter as much as its location. Properties in the city's historic districts get a historic review as part of the building permit process.

Revaluation schedule

New Britain's next revaluation is scheduled for October 1, 2027. Until then, assessments are based on the previous revaluation.

OPM revaluation schedule 2023-2037
Anti-blight ordinance

New Britain has an Anti-Blight Ordinance aimed at blighted and vacant properties throughout the city, enforced through the Building Department.

Housing inspections

The Health Department's Housing Division investigates complaints in single and multi-family dwellings, including structural defects, illegal occupancy, no heat and lack of utilities, as well as blighted conditions on private property.

What New Britain houses usually need

Code and blight issues

The city's Anti-Blight Ordinance targets blighted and vacant properties, enforced through the Building Department. If yours has open orders, we still buy it.

Deleading and rewiring

About 29.7% of homes were built before 1940. Lead paint, old wiring and old pipes are common, and we price them in.

Unit turnovers

Multi-family units often need kitchens, floors and paint between tenants. You can skip all of it.

Heating systems

About 66% of households heat with utility gas. An old boiler or furnace can stay as it is.

Why New Britain owners sell as-is

Enforcement is active here. The Health Department's Housing Division investigates complaints about structural defects, illegal occupancy, no heat and lack of utilities, and the Building Department enforces the Anti-Blight Ordinance. A property with open complaints is hard to sell to a regular buyer. We take it on.

Tenants are the other piece. With most homes rented, many sales come with leases. We buy with the tenants in place, so nobody has to move out for the sale.

Older buildings in historic districts get a historic review during the building permit process, and the city also has a Demolition Delay Ordinance. A buyer planning a gut renovation may hit both.

Behind on payments or taxes

Facing foreclosure or a tax lien in New Britain?

At 39.18 mills, even a modest New Britain house pays about $5,770 a year. Overdue Connecticut property tax adds 1.5% a month, 18% a year, and the city can put a lien on the property.

When the mortgage is behind too, Connecticut mostly uses strict foreclosure, where the Superior Court sets a Law Day. If we close before then, the lender and the city are paid at closing and you keep the difference.
