Sell My House Fast in Lakewood, NJ
Among the Ocean County towns with their own page here, Lakewood has the most residents: 139,019 of them, living in 33,812 housing units. It's close to an even split between owners and renters, with owners in 51.5% of occupied homes and renters in 48.5%.

Lakewood sales I can take on
Selling with tenants in place
Nearly half of Lakewood's occupied homes, 48.5%, are rented. I buy with the tenants still living there, so a sale doesn't have to wait on a lease. A landlord-tenant attorney can tell you what notice or rights apply.
Condos and apartment units
15.5% of the township's housing is in buildings with ten or more units. I buy condos, and I'll want the association's details and fees to price yours.
A two-family you want out of
Two-to-four-unit buildings make up 9.3% of Lakewood's housing. If you own one and you're tired of being the landlord, I'll buy the whole building as it stands.
Damage you don't want to fix
A newer house can still suffer a fire, a burst pipe or years of skipped upkeep. Fire-damaged and unlivable houses are on my list too; condition doesn't rule a house out.
Ocean County is part of the Jersey Shore, one of the two regions I know best, and that's the county Lakewood calls home.
Inherited a house here?
For a Lakewood estate with no will, the Ocean County Surrogate's Court grants letters of administration, and it can't issue surrogate certificates until the 6th day after the date of death.

Selling in Lakewood: your questions
Send me your Lakewood address with a line about the house and any tenants, and I'll come back with an honest offer.
Can I sell my Lakewood rental without asking the tenants to leave?
Yes. I buy rentals with tenants still living in them. I'll ask for the leases, the rents and any security deposits you hold, and you should have an attorney confirm what you owe the tenants at closing.
Do you buy condos in Lakewood?
I do. Send the unit details and the association fees, and I'll give you a cash number for the unit in its current condition.
My Lakewood house is fairly new. Are you the right buyer?
Possibly not. If your house is in good condition and you can wait a few months, an agent will usually get you more than I can. I'm the better call when there's work to do or a deadline to meet.
