Sussex County sales I handle
Empty houses
With 8.1% of the county's housing vacant, plenty of houses here have no one living in them. Vernon, which has its own page, is at 13.9%. I buy vacant houses as-is.
Sparta's prewar houses
Of the Sussex towns with a page here, Sparta has the largest prewar share, with 15.2% of its homes built before 1940. Older houses there are on my list in any condition, fire-damaged and unlivable ones included.
Single-family houses that need updating
In Hopatcong, 96.2% of the housing is single-family and 44.7% predates 1960. If yours needs a full update, I'll buy it without the repairs.
Inherited a house here?
Estates here go through the Sussex County Surrogate's Court, whose county page posts worksheets for estates with and without a will, along with the state's L-9 affidavit for real property tax waivers.

Selling in Sussex County: your questions
If you've got a Sussex County house that's sitting empty or came to you through an estate, send me the address. You'll get an honest number with no obligation.
Do you buy in all of Sussex County?
Yes. Hopatcong, Sparta and Vernon have their own pages, and I make offers in the county's other towns as well.
Will you buy a Sussex County house that's been vacant for years?
Yes. I buy houses in any condition, unlivable ones included, and an empty house doesn't need to be cleaned or repaired before I buy it.
Do I need to deal with the furniture before a Sussex County closing?
No. Pack up what you want to keep; everything else can stay for the cleanout I handle after closing.
Is a cash offer always the right call in Sussex County?
No, and I'll be the first to say it. If your house is in good shape and you can wait a few months, an agent will usually get you more.
