North Plainfield, Somerset County
What we see in North Plainfield

About 22,800 people lived here in 2020, a density of more than 8,000 per square mile, in roughly 8,000 housing units.
Selling a house in North Plainfield: what's different here
Washington Park Historic District
The Washington Park Historic District was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1987. Older homes in established neighborhoods often need wiring, heating, roof, or plumbing updates before a lender-financed buyer can close. We buy North Plainfield houses as they stand, so you don't have to take on a renovation before selling.
Green Brook flood risk
The Green Brook flows through the Plainfield and North Plainfield area on its way to the Raritan. Floods in 1971 and 1973, and Hurricane Floyd in 1999, caused heavy damage in the Green Brook basin, and the federal flood control project meant to address it has moved slowly. Homes with past water damage are hard to sell retail. We buy them as-is.
Separate since 1885
North Plainfield Township was formed from Warren Township in 1872, and the borough split off as its own municipality in 1885; the remaining township later became Green Brook. Today the borough has about 8,000 housing units in under three square miles. Whether you own a single-family home or a rental with tenants, we make a cash offer and close on your schedule.

Questions from North Plainfield sellers
North Plainfield FAQ
Do you buy North Plainfield homes with tenants?
Yes. We buy occupied rental properties and can work with existing leases, so you don't have to empty the building first.
Is North Plainfield the same as Plainfield?
No. North Plainfield is a separate borough in Somerset County, while Plainfield is in Union County. We buy houses in both.
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 North Plainfield 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 Somerset County. We are BBB accredited with an A+ rating, listed under our affiliate Gembrook Properties.
