Selling a house in Fairfield: what's specific to the township

Fairfield's river is the story. Everything about selling here follows from it.

The Passaic floods. The streets along the river near Passaic Avenue, Big Piece Road and the Lincoln Park and Wayne borders have flooded in Floyd, Irene, Ida and many smaller events. Elevation certificates, insurance and disclosure make retail sales slow. We buy flood-zone and flood-damaged houses as-is.

Splits and ranches from the 60s. The developments off Fairfield Road and Hollywood Avenue were built on the higher ground and are turning over from first owners now.

The township inspects before sale. Fairfield requires a certificate. We schedule it, pay for it and fix anything after closing.

Route 46 and 80 help resale. Which keeps our offers competitive despite the water.

Local notes from houses we’ve bought and walked; confirm anything specific to your property with the township and your attorney. More on selling in Essex County.
