What's different about selling a house in Somerset County
Somerset's rivers and its septic country are the two things that trip up retail sales here. Neither slows us down. Every town varies; we'll tell you what applies to yours on the first call.
The Raritan and Millstone flood, badly. Bound Brook, Manville, South Bound Brook, Raritan, Somerville's low streets and parts of Bridgewater have flooded repeatedly, most recently in Ida. Some blocks have buyout history. Flood insurance, elevation certificates and disclosure make these hard to list. We buy flood-zone and flood-damaged houses in Somerset as-is.
The hill towns are on septic and well. Hillsborough, Branchburg, Montgomery, Warren, Bernards and Bedminster have large lots without public sewer or water. A retail sale means septic inspection, often replacement, and well testing before a lender will close. We buy with unknown or failed systems and require none of it.
The developments are turning over. Bridgewater, Franklin, Hillsborough and Montgomery were built out in the 1970s through 90s. Their first owners are downsizing or passing, and those houses come to us full, dated and needing roofs and systems.
Franklin's adult communities have an heir problem. Canal Walk, Somerset Run and the other 55+ communities leave estates that heirs can't occupy. We buy the units and handle the association.
Estates and sheriff sales run through Somerville. The Somerset County Surrogate's Court and the Sheriff's Office are at the county complex in Somerville. We work with both.

Do you buy houses that flooded in Ida or earlier?
Yes, as-is, repaired or not. We pay cash so no flood insurance is required to close.
Do you buy houses with failed septic systems?
Yes, without inspection, pump-out or repair. We price the replacement into the offer and show you the line.
