Little Egg Harbor, Ocean County

What we see in Little Egg Harbor

Little Egg Harbor Township is the southernmost municipality in Ocean County, wrapping around Tuckerton and bordering Eagleswood, Stafford, Barnegat, and Long Beach Township, with Galloway, Bass River, and Woodland across county lines. Its best-known neighborhoods are lagoon communities such as Mystic Island, Osborn Island, Atlantis, and Holly Lake Harbor, built from the late 1950s on. Parkway Exit 58, Route 9, and County Route 539 serve the township, home to about 20,800 people in 2020.

Selling a house in Little Egg Harbor: what's different here

Mystic Island lagoon bungalows

Mystic Islands began in 1959 with two- and three-bedroom bungalows built from a catalog on filled land along dredged lagoons. Many have since been replaced with larger houses on pilings, but original bungalows remain. Older lagoon homes often need bulkhead, elevation, or system work. We buy them as they are, for cash.

Hurricane Sandy

Sandy on October 29, 2012 damaged roughly 4,000 homes in Little Egg Harbor, especially in Mystic Island. Some houses still have open permits, partial repairs, or elevation questions, and flood insurance can be expensive for a financed buyer. We buy storm-affected homes without requiring you to finish repairs or close out permits first.

Retirement communities and Pinelands

About three-quarters of the township's growth in the 2000s came from new retirement communities, and the NJ Pinelands Commission lists Little Egg Harbor as partly in the state Pinelands Area and partly in the National Reserve. Association approvals and land-use rules can slow a normal sale. We buy homes in both settings.

Inherited a house in Little Egg Harbor? The Ocean County Surrogate's Court is in Toms River, a few minutes from our office. 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 Little Egg Harbor sellers

Little Egg Harbor FAQ

Will you buy an original Mystic Island bungalow that isn't elevated?

Yes. We buy original bungalows and lagoon homes as they stand, and you don't need to raise the house or repair the bulkhead first.

Can you buy a home in one of the township's age-restricted communities?

Yes. We buy homes in the township's retirement communities and work through the association's requirements 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 Little Egg Harbor 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 Ocean County. We are BBB accredited with an A+ rating, listed under our affiliate Gembrook Properties.
