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

Totowa is small, mostly single-family and mostly postwar. Its two stories are the river and the generation that built it.

Capes and ranches from the 1950s. Most of the borough was built out after the war with capes, ranches and small colonials on modest lots. A large share are still with original owners or their estates, with the original kitchens, oil tanks, and a finished basement from 1975. That's the house we buy most in Totowa.

The Passaic River floods. Riverview Drive, the streets between Route 46 and the river, and the low blocks near the Little Falls border have flooded repeatedly, including in Irene and Ida. Flood disclosure, elevation certificates and insurance quotes make these hard to list. We buy flood-zone houses in Totowa as-is and know the history block by block.

The borough inspects before a sale. Totowa requires a certificate before a house changes hands, with attention to smoke and CO detectors and general safety items. We schedule it, pay for it and fix anything after closing.

Route 46 and 80 make it easy to leave. Totowa's location is a selling point for us when we resell, which means our offers here tend to be strong. It also means every investor in North Jersey sends letters. Compare ours in writing.
