Union Beach, Monmouth County
Union Beach is a bayfront borough of about 5,700 people on Raritan Bay, between Keyport to the west and Keansburg to the east, with Hazlet inland. It was formed in 1925 from part of Raritan Township, now Hazlet. The borough covers under two square miles and had about 2,200 housing units in 2020. Sandy hit Union Beach hard in 2012, forcing a mandatory evacuation and flooding the borough's school, and the town has since been the focus of Army Corps beach and flood-protection work.
During Sandy, around 400 Union Beach properties took on more than six feet of water, 62 homes were destroyed outright, and about 100 more were left uninhabitable. Houses that came through the storm may still carry repair history, mold concerns, or unfinished work that shows up in a buyer's inspection. We buy storm-affected Union Beach homes as-is for cash.
The Army Corps of Engineers has carried out phased beachfront restoration in Union Beach, with a larger flood-risk project slated to begin construction in 2023. Homes near the bay can still face flood-insurance requirements when a buyer uses a mortgage. We pay cash, so lender rules do not delay closing.
Union Beach's population fell about 8 percent between 2010 and 2020, the decade that included Sandy's losses. Owners of older or damaged houses may find fewer retail buyers willing to take on repairs. We make a direct cash offer and handle the work ourselves.

Questions from Union Beach sellers

Yes. We buy homes with open permits or unfinished work and take responsibility for closing them out after we buy.
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.
