Union City, Hudson County
Union City sits on the lower Hudson Palisades and is the only Hudson County municipality surrounded entirely by others: Hoboken, Jersey City, North Bergen, Weehawken, and West New York. It formed in 1925 when West Hoboken and Union Hill merged, and Route 495 cuts through on its way to the Lincoln Tunnel. About 69,000 people live in its 1.3 square miles, mostly in brownstones, two-family homes, and apartment buildings.
Union City has long been made up mostly of brownstones, two-family homes, and small locally owned businesses. Many of these buildings are a century old, with aging boilers, plumbing, and wiring that lenders and inspectors will flag. We buy Union City two-families and brownstones in their current condition.
Union City has local rent control, and at least one apartment complex was found to be covered after tenants challenged it. If you own a rented building, current rents and leases shape what a buyer will pay. We buy Union City rental properties with tenants in place and take over the existing leases.
Schiffli lace machines once made Union City the embroidery capital of the United States, and the industry declined by the late 1990s. The Park Performing Arts Center now has an exhibit on that history. We buy mixed-use buildings and older homes in Union City as-is.

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.
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.
