Ocean Township, Monmouth County

What we see in Ocean Township

Ocean Township is a suburb of about 27,700 people covering roughly 11 square miles just inland from the shore, between Eatontown and West Long Branch to the north and Neptune and Asbury Park to the south. It has no single downtown. Instead it is a group of neighborhoods, including Oakhurst, Wanamassa, Wayside, West Deal, Colonial Terrace, and Oakhurst Manor, tied together by Route 35, Route 66, and the Route 18 freeway. Deal Lake forms part of its eastern edge.

Selling a house in Ocean Township: what's different here

Postwar building boom

The township's big building boom started in the 1940s, when returning veterans bought homes with G.I. mortgages, especially in Wanamassa, and spread west of Route 35 into Wayside in the 1950s. Many of those houses still have original layouts, older electrical panels, and aging plumbing. We buy postwar Ocean Township homes as they stand.

Summer shacks turned homes

Parts of Oakhurst began as small lots given away by a Newark newspaper, where owners built summer shacks that many families made permanent during the Depression. Wanamassa grew from lots sold around 1907 near Deal Lake. Converted cottages can have small rooms, additions, and permit gaps. We buy them without requiring updates.

Apartments along Route 35

By 1970 the township had approved nearly 3,000 apartment units along Route 35, about 30 percent of its housing at the time. If you own a rental property or a unit with tenants, a retail sale means showings and lease complications. We buy tenant-occupied homes and take over existing leases.

Inherited a house in Ocean Township? Monmouth County estates are opened through the Surrogate's Court in Freehold. 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 Ocean Township sellers

Ocean Township FAQ

My Wanamassa house is near Deal Lake. Does that affect a sale?

Homes near Deal Lake can fall in the flood plain, which may mean insurance requirements for mortgage buyers. We pay cash, so a lender's flood review does not hold up our offer.

I have an older Oakhurst cottage with an unpermitted addition. Can you buy it?

Yes. We buy homes with permit issues as-is and work through them after 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 Ocean Township 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 Monmouth County. We are BBB accredited with an A+ rating, listed under our affiliate Gembrook Properties.
