What's different about selling a house in Essex County
Essex has two housing markets that meet in the middle. We buy in both, and the offer math and the paperwork are different for each. Every town varies; we'll tell you what applies to yours on the first call.
The cities are multifamily and heavily enforced. Newark, Irvington, East Orange and Orange are two-, three- and four-family territory, with active code enforcement, rental registration requirements, and certificate inspections before any sale. Tenants are protected, evictions are slow, and tax liens are common. We buy these buildings occupied, with violations open, and resolve the liens from proceeds at closing.
The suburbs are turning over a generation. Bloomfield, Nutley, Belleville, Livingston, Cedar Grove and West Orange filled in from the 1920s through the 1960s. The houses we buy there are mostly estates: a parent lived in it for fifty years, the kids are elsewhere, the basement is full and the roof is tired.
Montclair and the hill towns have big old houses with big old problems. Slate roofs, knob-and-tube, plaster, oil tanks, lead paint. Renovation costs are high and retail buyers expect perfection at these price points. We buy the unrenovated version.
The Passaic River runs the western edge. Fairfield, parts of Belleville and Nutley along the river have flood history. We buy flood-zone houses as-is.
Estates and sheriff sales run through Newark. The Essex County Surrogate's Court and the Sheriff's Office are both in Newark. Essex probate volume is high; we know what the title companies need to close an Essex estate sale and ask for it early.

Essex County questions
More on the FAQ page.
Do you buy multifamilies in Newark with tenants?
Yes, and it's much of what we buy in Essex. Paying or not, registered or not, with or without violations. We take over the leases and the building's problems at closing.
What about tax liens and water bills?
Paid from proceeds at closing. If the liens exceed the equity, tell us early and we'll talk through what's realistic.
Do you buy in Montclair and the wealthier towns?
Yes. Condition and situation matter, not price point. We buy estate houses and tired properties in every Essex town.
How fast can you get to the house?
Same day or next day for most of Essex. Totowa is close to the northern towns and thirty minutes from Newark.
