Seller questions, answered.
How do I sell my house in New Jersey?
To sell a house in New Jersey, start with a home valuation and pricing strategy, prepare and photograph the home, list and market it, negotiate offers, complete the three-business-day attorney review, handle inspections and required certifications, then close with your attorney.
What costs should sellers expect in New Jersey?
Typical seller costs include real estate commission (which is negotiable), New Jersey's Realty Transfer Fee, attorney fees, mortgage payoff, property tax and utility prorations, required certifications or municipal inspections, and any negotiated repairs or credits. Ask us for an estimated net sheet before you list.
What is my home worth?
Online estimates can't see your home's condition, updates or the details of your street. Our home valuation consultation uses recent comparable sales and an in-person look at your property to recommend a pricing strategy.
Do I need any certifications to sell a home in New Jersey?
Most one- and two-family home sales require a certificate of smoke alarm, carbon monoxide alarm and portable fire extinguisher compliance, and many municipalities add their own resale inspection or certificate of occupancy. We help you schedule these early.
Is your commission negotiable?
Yes. Real estate commissions are always negotiable. We offer competitive rates and flexible commission structures and will explain exactly what's included before you sign a listing agreement.
What if I owe more than my home is worth?
You may still have options, including a short sale. Our short sale specialists can walk you through the process confidentially.
