Roselle houses that are hard to sell the usual way
Hoarding and heavy clutter
A house packed floor to ceiling is not one you can hold an open house in. I buy it as it stands. You don't have to haul anything out: leave what you don't want, and I deal with the cleanout after closing.
A relative's house after a move or an illness
When a family member goes into care or moves in with you, their Roselle house can sit for months. Selling it as-is lets you focus on the person instead of the property.
Old houses, old problems
Nearly a third of Roselle's homes were built before 1940. Foundations, sewer lines and electrical service can need serious money in houses that age, and I factor that in rather than asking you to fix it.
A rental you're finished with
45.3% of occupied homes in Roselle are rented, at a median gross rent of $1,567. If a rental has become more trouble than income, I'll buy it with the tenants still living there, and a landlord-tenant attorney can explain what you owe them.
One house I bought in Roselle belonged to a man's brother. The brother was a severe hoarder, and his health had gotten very poor. The man moved his brother to Florida to live with him, and he had no way to sell a house that nobody could live in. I bought it quickly and easily, at exactly the price they wanted. I want every deal to work for the seller as well as for me, and that one did.
Inherited a house here?
When a Roselle home belongs to someone who died without a will, the Union County Surrogate's Court is the office that appoints an administrator for the estate.

Selling in Roselle: your questions
If your Roselle house feels impossible to sell, call me; I've helped a family out of exactly that spot.
Will you really buy a hoarder house in Roselle?
I have before: one here, at exactly the price the family wanted. You don't need to clear it out first, and the closing date can wait until it suits you.
What's my Roselle house worth if it needs everything?
Most likely less than the $379,900 median, since that figure includes homes in good condition. A house needing a full renovation is valued on what it would sell for finished, minus the cost and risk of the work. I'll walk you through my math.
Should I list my Roselle house instead?
If it's in good condition and you can wait a few months, listing will usually get you the most money, and I'll tell you so. Most people who come to me want it done sooner or don't want the hassle.
Is a fire-damaged Roselle house something you'd buy?
Yes. Fire damage doesn't rule a house out for me; I buy in any condition, unlivable houses included. The hoarder's house I bought here couldn't be lived in, and that didn't stop the sale. If there's an open insurance claim, ask your attorney how it affects selling.
