Seaside Heights, Ocean County

What we see in Seaside Heights

Seaside Heights is a borough on the Barnegat Peninsula between Barnegat Bay and the Atlantic, bordered by Seaside Park, Toms River, and Berkeley Township. Routes 35 and 37 meet at the approach to the Thomas A. Mathis and J. Stanley Tunney bridges, which carry Route 37 to the mainland and the Parkway at Exit 82. The town is known for its 2-mile boardwalk and Casino Pier. About 2,440 people lived there year-round in 2020, and it is one of the few shore towns with sizable numbers of apartments.

Selling a house in Seaside Heights: what's different here

Sandy and the 2013 fire

Sandy flooded much of the borough in 2012 and wrecked Casino Pier and Funtown Pier, dropping the Star Jet coaster into the ocean. Less than a year later, a ten-alarm fire spread north from Funtown Pier along the rebuilt boardwalk until firefighters stopped it at Lincoln Avenue. Homes with storm or fire history can carry open permits and claims. We buy them as they stand.

Mostly seasonal housing

Sixty percent of Seaside Heights' 2,870 housing units were vacant at the 2020 census, reflecting how many are summer rentals and second homes. Owners of seasonal rentals who want out often deal with furnishings, turnover, and wear from years of summer use. We buy rental properties as-is, including contents if you want to leave them.

Apartments and multi-units

Seaside Heights has more apartments than most shore towns, and small apartment buildings and multi-unit houses can be hard to sell to buyers using conventional loans. Rental vacancy was about 14 percent in 2020, so some owners are carrying empty units. We buy multi-unit properties for cash, with or without tenants.

Inherited a house in Seaside Heights? 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 Seaside Heights sellers

Seaside Heights FAQ

Will you buy a Seaside Heights rental with tenants still in it?

Yes. We buy occupied single-family homes and apartment buildings and take over the existing leases at closing.

My house near the boardwalk had storm damage that was never fully fixed. Can you buy it?

Yes. We buy storm- and fire-affected houses in their current condition, including ones with open permits.

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 Seaside Heights 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.
