Selling a house in Manville: what's specific to the borough
Manville floods from two rivers. That's the whole story of selling here.
Two rivers flood. The Raritan on the north and the Millstone on the south flooded the Lost Valley, Weston and the low streets off Main Street in Floyd, Irene and Ida. Blue Acres has bought and demolished dozens of houses. Retail buyers and lenders are wary. We buy flood-zone houses as-is.
Capes and ranches. 1940s through 60s stock on small lots, many still with original families or their estates.
The borough inspects before sale. Manville requires a certificate. We schedule it, pay for it and fix anything after closing.
Taxes on a house nobody wants to insure. Heirs often inherit a Manville house they can't affordably insure and can't sell retail. That's why they call us.
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 Somerset County.
