Andover Borough, Sussex County
Andover Borough is a small borough of about 600 residents in southern Sussex County, bordered by Andover Township, Byram Township, and Green Township. U.S. Route 206 and County Route 517 run through it, and the Sussex Branch Trail crosses the old Hole in the Wall stone arch bridge. The borough was carved from Andover Township in 1904 and grew up around an 18th-century iron forge and furnace, and parts of that village survive in the Andover Borough Historic District.
The Andover Borough Historic District takes in the old Andover Iron Forge and Furnace area and its workers' housing, including the Grist Mill Stone House built in 1760. The Iron Master's Mansion on Main Street belongs to the same iron works. Houses this old can need structural, electrical, or plumbing work that a buyer's inspector will flag. We buy older Andover homes as they stand.
U.S. Route 206 and County Route 517 both pass through this 1.4-square-mile borough, and some homes face those roads. A house on a busy route that also needs repairs can be a hard fit for a buyer relying on a mortgage and appraisal. Our cash offer does not depend on a lender, so traffic and condition don't hold up the closing.
NJ Transit is restoring passenger service on the Lackawanna Cut-Off, with a new station planned in neighboring Andover Township and an opening estimated for 2026. For now, Lakeland Bus Lines runs along I-80 between Newton and the Port Authority in Manhattan. If you would rather sell now than wait to see how the new line plays out, we can make a cash offer on your timeline.

Questions from Andover Borough sellers
They are separate municipalities with separate tax records; the borough was carved out of the township in 1904. We check the deed and tax records and buy houses in both.
Yes. We buy as-is for cash, so you don't need to repair or restore anything before closing.
In New Jersey, an inherited house is sold through the estate, so the executor or court-appointed administrator signs the sale. We talk with each heir separately and privately, so no one has to negotiate as a group, and we'll walk you through getting an administrator appointed if that hasn't happened yet.
Thirty days is typical, and clean files can move faster. If you need more time, we'll write the date you want into the contract.
