Little Ferry, Bergen County

What we see in Little Ferry

Little Ferry is a low-lying Meadowlands borough near where Overpeck Creek meets the Hackensack River. It borders Hackensack, Moonachie, Ridgefield, Ridgefield Park, South Hackensack, and Teterboro, and U.S. Route 46 crosses the river here. The town is named for a rope-towed ferry that carried people across the Hackensack from 1659 to 1826. Formed in 1894 from parts of Lodi and New Barbadoes townships, it sits about 3 feet above sea level and has roughly 4,500 homes.

Selling a house in Little Ferry: what's different here

Sandy's surge

When Sandy's tidal surge pushed up the Hackensack River in October 2012, water overflowed a natural berm and rose out of storm drains, reaching about four feet in the road and entering houses within 90 minutes. Residents were taken out by boat. Homes with that flood history face insurance and lender questions. We buy them as they are.

Inside the Meadowlands District

Little Ferry is one of 14 towns in the Meadowlands District, long overseen by the New Jersey Meadowlands Commission, a regional zoning and planning agency that became part of the NJ Sports and Exposition Authority in 2015. That added layer of land-use oversight can raise questions for some buyers. We handle the details and close on your timeline.

Route 46 and the old circle

The Little Ferry Circle, built in 1933 where Route 46 met the Bergen Turnpike, became known as an often-flooded road before it was replaced by a straight intersection. Homes near busy roads and low ground can be slower to sell to buyers using mortgages. We make cash offers on houses anywhere in the borough.

Inherited a house in Little Ferry? Bergen County's Surrogate's Court is in Hackensack. With 70 municipalities, local permit and certificate-of-occupancy rules vary sharply from town to town. 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 Ferry sellers

Little Ferry FAQ

My Little Ferry house took water during Sandy. Can I still sell it?

Yes. We buy houses with past flood damage, partial repairs, or ongoing moisture problems as-is, and we don't require you to finish restoration first.

Do I need flood insurance in place to sell to you?

No. Because we pay cash, there is no lender requiring a flood policy as a condition of closing.

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