River Edge, Bergen County

What we see in River Edge

River Edge is a borough of about 12,000 people on the west bank of the Hackensack River, bordered by Hackensack, New Milford, Oradell, Paramus, and Teaneck. Route 4 runs along its southern edge and Kinderkamack Road runs north-south beside the river. It has two stations on NJ Transit's Pascack Valley Line, River Edge at the north end and New Bridge Landing at the south. Housing is mostly owner-occupied homes on a little under two square miles, with Van Saun County Park shared with Paramus.

Selling a house in River Edge: what's different here

New Bridge Landing

The south end of River Edge holds Historic New Bridge Landing, where Washington's army crossed the Hackensack River in November 1776, along with the Steuben House and the Demarest House. Homes near the river and Kinderkamack Road sit on low ground by the water. We buy houses in any condition for cash, without inspections or repair requests.

Renamed from Riverside

River Edge was incorporated in 1894 as the borough of Riverside, carved out of Midland Township, and took the name River Edge in 1930. Older deeds and records can carry the earlier name, which sometimes adds a step for title work. We work with the title company to sort out records like these as part of closing.

Two train stations

River Edge station and New Bridge Landing station both run to Hoboken with connections at Secaucus Junction, and Route 4 is the main highway. That access draws buyers, but many need a house ready to move into. We buy houses that need updating or a full clean-out, on your timeline.

Inherited a house in River Edge? 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 River Edge sellers

River Edge FAQ

Can you buy a River Edge house that belonged to a parent who passed away?

Yes. We regularly work with executors and heirs, buy the house as-is with belongings inside, and can time the closing around the estate's paperwork.

Do I need to fix anything before selling my River Edge house to you?

No. We make a cash offer on the house as it stands and handle any repairs ourselves 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 River Edge 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.
