Bayonne situations where a cash offer makes sense
A two-family with a worn-out rental floor
With 45.0% of the city's homes in 2-4 unit buildings and 63.8% rented, small rental buildings are a big part of Bayonne. If the rental side needs work you don't want to pay for, I'll buy the whole building and deal with it myself.
A prewar house with original guts
More than a third of Bayonne homes date to before 1940. Houses that old can come with outdated wiring, tired pipes and foundations that need attention. I put those repairs into my price, so you aren't paying for them up front.
Long-term tenants on low rents
Bayonne's median gross rent is $1,682. A tenant paying well under that can scare off buyers who need the rent to cover a mortgage. I look at what the property is worth once it's fixed, not only at the rent roll.
An empty house draining your account
The city's vacancy rate is 6.0%. If one of those empty units is yours, taxes, insurance and upkeep keep coming every month, and a sale on a fixed date stops that.
I've called Hudson County home for about 20 years. When I look at a Bayonne house, I'm looking at a property in my own county.
Inherited a house here?
If a Bayonne house is in an estate, the Hudson County Surrogate's Court probates the will or grants letters of administration when there's none.

Selling in Bayonne: your questions
Send me the address of your Bayonne property. The offer is free, and you can take as long as you need to decide.
Will you buy a Bayonne two-family if I live in one of the units?
Yes. Living in one unit while renting the other doesn't get in the way of a sale to me. We'll pick a closing date that leaves you time to line up your next place.
Bayonne's median value is $460,100. How close will your offer be?
That median covers owner-occupied homes in every condition. If your house needs a lot of work, my number will be lower, and I'll explain why: I start from what a fixed-up Bayonne property would sell for and subtract what it costs to get there.
What happens to my tenants if I sell to you?
I buy with tenants still living there, so tell me who lives in each unit and what each lease says before I work up a number. Leases and tenant protections are legal questions, so ask an attorney where you stand before you sign.
Will you buy a Bayonne house after a fire?
Yes, fire-damaged and unlivable houses are ones I buy. Send photos of the damage, plus anything the fire department or your insurer told you, and I'll work up a number.
