Bloomfield, Essex County
Bloomfield is a 5.4-square-mile township on Newark's northwest edge, bordered by Belleville, East Orange, Glen Ridge, Montclair, Newark, Nutley, and Clifton. The Garden State Parkway has four interchanges here, and NJ Transit stops at Bloomfield and Watsessing Avenue on the Montclair-Boonton Line and at Grove Street on the Newark Light Rail. About 53,000 people live in sections such as Brookdale, Watsessing, Ampere North, and part of Silver Lake. Bloomfield College sits downtown near the town green.
The Bloomfield Green Historic District was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978, and Bloomfield College has stood near the green since 1868. Houses in the older center of town were built long before modern wiring and plumbing codes. If yours has not been updated, we buy it as it is, with no requirement to modernize first.
Brookdale, known as Stone House Plains until 1873, was farmland until after World War I, when the farms became residential streets. Many of those houses are now about a century old. Original roofs, heating systems, and electrical service often surface in a buyer's inspection and lead to repair requests. We skip that step and buy the house in its current condition.
The Third River runs through Bloomfield past Brookside Park, Foley Field, and Clarks Pond, and the Second River meets Toney's Brook in Watsessing Park. In January 2024 the Third River gauge in Bloomfield crested just above its 6-foot flood stage. Homes near these streams can face flood-insurance questions from buyers' lenders. We buy for cash, so no lender is involved.

Questions from Bloomfield sellers
Yes. We buy houses in every part of Bloomfield, including Brookdale, Watsessing, Ampere North, and the Bloomfield side of Silver Lake.
No. We buy as-is, so any water damage or past flooding is reflected in our offer rather than in a repair list you have to complete.
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.
Yes. We're a New Jersey company based in Toms River, and we buy in all 21 counties, including Essex County. We are BBB accredited with an A+ rating, listed under our affiliate Gembrook Properties.
