Mountainside, Union County
Mountainside is a borough on a ridge in Union County, bordered by Summit, Springfield, Westfield, Berkeley Heights, and Scotch Plains. Part of the Watchung Reservation, including Lake Surprise, is in its open space. U.S. Route 22 and Interstate 78 run through town, though borough zoning limits commercial development along Route 22, unlike many neighboring highway towns. Mountainside was carved from Westfield Township in 1895 and had about 7,000 residents and 2,560 housing units in 2020.
From 1958 to 1963, Nike missile launchers stood in the Watchung Reservation in Mountainside, and the cleared ground became the Watchung Stables. Houses near the wooded reservation can need tree, drainage, and roof work that inspectors flag. We buy Mountainside homes as-is for cash, so you don't have to take on that work before selling.
Route 22 runs through Mountainside with a peak-hour bus shoulder, and buses 114 and 117 reach the Port Authority. Summit station is about two miles from the center of town. If your house sits near the highway or needs updating, we make a cash offer on it as it is and close on your schedule.
Mountainside split from Westfield Township in 1895 and covers about four square miles. Long-owned homes here can come with original kitchens and baths and a houseful of belongings. We buy without repairs, staging, or a clean-out, which helps when you're settling an estate or moving on quickly.

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.
