What's different about selling a house in Hudson County
Hudson is a landlord's county, and the rules that protect tenants are the reason so many owners sell to us rather than list. Every town varies; we'll tell you what applies to yours on the first call.
Rent control is town by town. Jersey City, Hoboken, Union City, West New York, Bayonne and others have their own rent control ordinances, exemptions, registration requirements and vacancy rules. A retail buyer's attorney will want every unit's rent history and registration in order. We buy buildings where none of that is tidy and sort it out after closing.
Tenants stay, and so do their protections. New Jersey's Anti-Eviction Act applies fully here. A non-paying tenant in Jersey City or Union City can take many months to remove. We buy the building occupied and inherit the case.
Certificate inspections are strict. Hudson towns inspect before sale and before re-occupancy of a unit, and they look at smoke and CO detectors, fire extinguishers, egress and illegal conversions. Basement and attic apartments are common and rarely permitted. We buy them as-is and deal with the town ourselves.
Older stock, small lots, shared walls. Much of Hudson's housing is 80 to 120 years old: frame two-families in Bayonne and Kearny, brick multifamilies in Union City and West New York. Roofs, boilers, electrical and plumbing are at end of life in the ones we buy. No repairs needed.
Estates and sheriff sales run through Jersey City. The Hudson County Surrogate's Court and the Sheriff's Office are in Jersey City. Bayonne and Kearny in particular have a lot of estate two-families where the owner lived downstairs for fifty years.
The situations we see most in Hudson County
Tired landlords across the county, especially in Union City, West New York, North Bergen and Jersey City.
Inherited two-families in Bayonne, Kearny and the Heights, with a tenant upstairs nobody wants to manage.
Illegal units and violations where legalizing costs more than the building has earned.
Pre-foreclosure on buildings where the rent stopped covering the mortgage.
Relocating owners who moved out of state and kept the building too long.
Hudson County questions
More on the FAQ page.
Do you buy rent-controlled buildings?
Yes. Rent control affects what we can charge later, so it affects the offer, but it doesn't stop the sale. We handle registration and notices after closing.
What if the basement apartment isn't legal?
We buy it as it is. Legalizing or removing it is our responsibility after closing.
My tenants won't let anyone in. Can you still make an offer?
Yes. We'll see what we can and estimate the rest. Our offer accounts for the uncertainty.
How fast can you close in Hudson County?
Seven to fourteen days is typical once title is clean; some Hudson towns take longer on certificate inspections and we build that in. Walkthroughs within a day or two from Totowa.
