Lawrence, Mercer County

What we see in Lawrence

Lawrence Township sits between Trenton and Princeton, bordered by Ewing, Hamilton, Hopewell Township, Princeton, Trenton, and West Windsor. Many residents call the whole township Lawrenceville because of the shared 08648 mailing address, but it also includes Eldridge Park, Slackwood, Colonial Lakelands, Rosedale, and Port Mercer. U.S. Route 1, Route 206, and Interstate 295 cross the township, and the Delaware and Raritan Canal towpath runs through it.

Selling a house in Lawrence: what's different here

Lawrenceville historic district

The Lawrence Township Historic District covers about 550 acres around Lawrenceville, including the Lawrenceville School and a Presbyterian church whose building dates to 1764. Older homes in and near the district often have aging systems and past additions. We buy them as-is, so you don't have to update anything before selling.

Route 1 flooding

During Hurricane Ida in 2021, Route 1 and the Trenton Freeway flooded between Darrah Lane and Quakerbridge Road, and roads including Franklin Corner, Bakers Basin, and Carter Road were closed. Homes in low spots can have basement water history that worries buyers. We make cash offers on the house as it is.

Rider, BMS, and ETS

Rider University, Bristol-Myers Squibb's research division, and Educational Testing Service are all based in Lawrence. If you own a Lawrence house that is rented out, you don't need to wait for the lease to end. We buy Lawrence homes with tenants in place or vacant.

Inherited a house in Lawrence? The Mercer County Surrogate's Court is in Trenton. 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 Lawrence sellers

Lawrence FAQ

My house has a Lawrenceville address. Is it in Lawrence Township?

Usually yes. Most of the township uses a Lawrenceville mailing address, and we confirm the tax records before we make an offer.

Will you buy a Lawrence house with a tenant still living there?

Yes. We buy rented homes in Lawrence and take over the tenant situation as part of the sale.

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 Lawrence 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 Mercer County. We are BBB accredited with an A+ rating, listed under our affiliate Gembrook Properties.
