Selling a house in Madison: what's specific to the borough
Madison's houses are old and beautiful and expensive to bring up to what its buyers expect.
Victorians and prewar colonials. The streets around Main Street, Kings Road and the station are 1880s through 1930s houses with slate roofs, plaster, knob-and-tube and oil tanks. Some were converted to two-families for Drew and Fairleigh Dickinson rentals. Renovation costs are high; we buy unrenovated.
Postwar splits toward the edges. Toward Florham Park and Chatham Township the stock shifts to 50s and 60s splits and colonials, turning over from first owners.
The borough inspects before sale. Madison requires a certificate. We schedule it, pay for it and fix anything after closing.
Taxes. Madison's taxes punish waiting. An empty estate house here costs real money every quarter.
