Hoboken, Hudson County

What we see in Hoboken

Hoboken is a square-mile city on the west bank of the Hudson River, across from Manhattan, bordered by Jersey City to the south and west and by Weehawken and Union City to the north. It was originally an island, with tidal land at the foot of the Palisades on its west side. About 60,000 people live here, many in turn-of-the-century masonry row houses, brownstones, and older apartment buildings converted to condos, plus newer buildings in the northwest.

Selling a house in Hoboken: what's different here

Sandy and the flood wall

Hurricane Sandy flooded about 1,700 homes in Hoboken in 2012, and seawater covered about half the city. The state's Rebuild by Design project is adding more than 9,000 feet of flood walls and 26 floodgates. Ground-floor and basement units can still face flood-insurance and inspection questions. We buy Hoboken homes with flood history as-is.

Old row houses and tenements

Much of Hoboken's housing is three-to-five-story masonry row houses from around 1900, and many older apartment houses were converted to condos in the 1980s. These buildings can have old plumbing, uneven floors, and shared systems. We buy brownstones, row houses, and condo units in their current condition.

Rent control buildings

Hoboken has local rent control, and courts and city officials have ruled that some buildings are covered after tenant challenges. If you own a rented unit or small building, rent limits and current leases affect what a buyer will pay. We buy Hoboken rentals with tenants in place and take over the leases.

Inherited a house in Hoboken? The Hudson County Surrogate's Court is in Jersey City. We handle the title work and deal directly with the estate's executor or court-appointed administrator, who signs the sale. If no one has been appointed yet, we'll walk you through that step. We talk with each heir separately and privately, so no one has to negotiate as a group.

Questions from Hoboken sellers

Hoboken FAQ

My Hoboken unit is on the ground floor in the flood zone. Can I still sell it?

Yes. We buy ground-floor and garden units with flood history, and we don't require repairs or new flood insurance before closing.

I own a rent-controlled multi-family in Hoboken. Will you buy it with the tenants?

Yes. We buy Hoboken buildings with tenants in place and take over the leases, so you don't have to vacate units before selling.

Do all the heirs have to agree before an inherited house can be sold?

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.

How fast can you close on a Hoboken house?

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.

Are you a local company?

Yes. We're a New Jersey company based in Toms River, and we buy in all 21 counties, including Hudson County. We are BBB accredited with an A+ rating, listed under our affiliate Gembrook Properties.
