New Jersey's economy is anchored by pharmaceuticals, finance, logistics, and its position in the New York and Philadelphia metros, supporting strong commuter housing demand. A cash offer trades a small amount of headline price for speed and certainty: a firm offer, no agent commissions, no open houses, and a close date you choose. New Jersey markets - especially the Jersey Shore - face coastal storms, nor'easters, and hurricanes with storm-surge flooding (Superstorm Sandy). A cash buyer purchases as-is, so storm- or repair-affected homes can sell without upfront work. See how the costs compare in our guide on how much it costs to sell a house.
Opendoor serves markets statewide across New Jersey. The cities below are our top markets - those with enough recent sales data to show local statistics and trends - but you can get a cash offer on your home anywhere in New Jersey.
New Jersey sellers pay the graduated Realty Transfer Fee, roughly 0.4%-1.2% of the sale price (higher on more expensive homes). A separate 1% mansion tax on residential sales of $1 million or more is customarily paid by the buyer.
Yes. New Jersey has a graduated state income tax up to 10.75% and taxes capital gains as ordinary income, so any home-sale gain above the federal exclusion can be taxed. Federal IRS Topic 701 shields up to $250,000 ($500,000 married filing jointly).
New Jersey contracts include a standard 3-business-day attorney review, and closings are customarily handled by a real estate attorney alongside a title company.
New Jersey is not a pure buyer-beware state: sellers must disclose known latent material defects, and most complete the customary NJ Realtors disclosure statement.
New Jersey has the highest property taxes in the country, billed quarterly (February, May, August, and November). They are prorated between buyer and seller at closing.
A cash offer lets you close in as little as 21 days and skip the multi-month listing timeline. Learn more about how to sell your house fast.
