Selling a house in Wanaque: what's specific to the borough

Wanaque is older, modest and turning over. The houses we buy here need work and the sellers need simple.

Haskell and Midvale are old. Small capes, bungalows and former mill-worker homes from the 1900s through the 1940s along Ringwood Avenue and the side streets. Original systems, small lots, and decades of belongings when they come to us as estates.

The Wanaque River floods. The low streets along the river near Ringwood Avenue and the Pompton Lakes border have flood history. We buy flood-zone houses as-is.

The hill sections are postwar. Toward the reservoir and Ringwood the stock shifts to 1950s and 60s ranches and splits, many with original owners. Those estates are the other thing we buy.

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

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 Passaic County.
