Selling a house in Garfield: what's specific to the city
Garfield shares its housing stock with Passaic and Clifton across the river: old, dense, rented and regulated.
Two- and three-families everywhere. Frame multifamilies from the 1900s through the 1930s fill the city, especially the numbered streets and the blocks off Palisade and Passaic Street. Owner down, tenant up, then an estate. We buy occupied and take over the lease.
The city inspects and registers. Garfield requires a certificate of occupancy before sale and registers rental units. Basement apartments that were never permitted are common. We buy as-is and deal with the city after closing.
Two rivers flood. The Passaic along the west and south and the Saddle River along the east have flooded repeatedly, especially the low streets near the Wallington and Elmwood Park borders. We buy flood-zone houses as-is.
Systems are old. Roofs, boilers, electrical and plumbing in these buildings are often past their life. No repairs needed.
Local notes from houses we’ve bought and walked; confirm anything specific to your property with the township and your attorney. More on selling in Bergen County.
