Selling a house in Irvington: what's specific to the township

Irvington's enforcement and its tax sale are what push owners to us. Both are handled at closing.

Multifamily everywhere. Frame two- to four-families from the 1900s through 1930s, mostly tenant-occupied, often with an unpermitted unit. We buy occupied and handle the township afterward.

Code enforcement is aggressive. Irvington inspects before sale, registers rentals and issues violations quickly for exterior condition, conversions and fire safety. We buy with violations open.

Taxes and water go to lien fast. Tax sale certificates are common and the holders can foreclose after the waiting period. We redeem the certificate from proceeds at closing. Call before the foreclosure is finalized.

Vacant and fire-damaged stock. Irvington has a lot of it, and the township registers and fines vacant properties. We buy boarded buildings and shells.

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 Essex County.
