New Milford, Bergen County
What we see in New Milford
New Milford is a borough on the Hackensack River, bordered by Bergenfield, Dumont, Oradell, River Edge, and Teaneck. River Road, Madison Avenue, Milford Avenue, and Henley Avenue are its main roads, and the Pascack Valley Line stations are just across the river in River Edge. Formed in 1922 from the last of Palisades Township, the borough includes the old communities of New Bridge, Old Bridge, and Peetzburgh. It has about 16,900 residents and 6,400 homes.
Selling a house in New Milford: what's different here
Hackensack River floods
The Hackensack reached a record 12.36 feet in April 2007 and 11.84 feet during Irene in 2011, when more than 200 people were evacuated by boat from Columbia, Harvard, and Pine streets, Henley Avenue, and nearby blocks. Floyd brought high water in 1999 as well. Flood history scares off many buyers; we buy as-is.
Below the Oradell dam
New Milford sits downstream of the Oradell Reservoir dam. During Irene, the reservoir rose two feet above the dam, which worsened flooding in New Milford and Oradell. Homes in a mapped flood zone usually need flood insurance when a buyer has a mortgage. We pay cash, so there is no lender requirement to meet.
New Bridge history
New Bridge Landing, shared with River Edge and Teaneck, marks the Hackensack River crossing where Washington's troops retreated. New Milford's roots in New Bridge and Peetzburgh go back well before the borough itself. Older houses in town can carry outdated systems or past flood repairs, and we buy them without inspections or repairs.

Questions from New Milford sellers
New Milford FAQ
My New Milford house flooded during Irene. Will you buy it?
Yes. We buy houses with flood history, including those with repairs still unfinished, and we don't need you to fix anything first.
Do I need an elevation certificate or flood insurance to sell to you?
No. Those are usually lender requirements, and our cash purchase doesn't involve a lender.
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 New Milford 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.
