Selling a house in Somerville: what's specific to the borough

Somerville is old, walkable and expensive to renovate. That's why estates and landlords sell to us here.

Victorians and prewar two-families. The grid off Main Street and the streets toward the train are 1880s through 1930s houses, many converted to two-families: slate roofs, plaster, knob-and-tube, oil tanks. Renovation costs are high; we buy unrenovated.

Registration and certificate. Somerville registers rentals and inspects before sale. Units never permitted are common in older houses. We buy occupied and handle the borough afterward.

The Raritan floods. The low streets on the south side near the river and the Bridgewater border have flood history. We buy flood-zone houses as-is.

Downtown and the train help resale. Which keeps our offers competitive.

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.
