Sell My House Fast in Union County, NJ
Union County packs a wide range of housing into one county. The median home value is $529,200, but that single number hides a big spread, from multi-family cities like Elizabeth and Plainfield to single-family towns like Westfield, Summit and Scotch Plains.
I buy houses across the county. Elizabeth, Kenilworth, Linden, Plainfield, Rahway, Roselle, Roselle Park, Scotch Plains, Summit and Westfield each have their own page on this site. Wherever the house is, the offer comes from the same analysis: condition, repairs, what it would sell for fixed, and enough room for the deal to work.

Union County sales I can help with
Older housing countywide
Most of the county's housing, 57.9%, was built before 1960, and 23.5% before 1940. Houses in any condition are on my list, including fire-damaged and unlivable ones.
Small multi-family buildings
24.8% of Union County's housing is in buildings with two to four units. If you own one and want out of the landlord role, I'll buy the building as it is, tenants and all.
Inherited homes
An inherited house you don't want still needs its taxes paid and its upkeep handled while you decide. I've helped many people sell inherited homes and use the money to start fresh. For the tax side, ask an accountant who works on estates. Whatever you don't want can stay in the house, and the cleanout is my problem after the sale.
Valuable homes that need work
In the county's pricier towns, a dated house gets compared with renovated ones nearby. I'll make an offer on it as it stands.
Inherited a house here?
Executors anywhere in Union County qualify with the Union County Surrogate's Court, whose office is in Elizabeth.

Selling in Union County: your questions
If you own a Union County house that needs work or needs to sell on your schedule, reach out. You'll get a real number and a straight answer.
Which Union County towns do you buy in?
I have pages for Elizabeth, Hillside, Kenilworth, Linden, Plainfield, Rahway, Roselle, Roselle Park, Scotch Plains, Springfield Township, Summit, Union Township and Westfield, and I'll look at houses elsewhere in the county too.
What does the $529,200 county median tell me about my house?
Not much on its own. It blends owner-occupied homes from every town and in every condition. Your house's value depends on its town, its street and, above all, its condition.
Are you a good fit if my Union County house is in great shape?
Probably not. I rarely buy houses in great condition, and listing with an agent for a few months will usually get you more. I'm the better call when there's real work to do or when timing comes first.
Can I sell a Union County rental with the tenants still in it?
Yes. I buy rentals with the tenants still living there. In Union County, 42.6% of occupied homes are rented and 24.8% of the housing is in two-to-four-unit buildings. Send me the leases and rents, and get a landlord-tenant attorney's read on what your tenants are owed.
