Bayfront homes and flood questions
- Homes near Raritan Bay can sit in FEMA-mapped flood zones. If yours does, a buyer using a mortgage will usually need flood insurance, and that cost can shrink your buyer pool. A cash buyer doesn’t need a lender’s flood-insurance requirement to close.
- If the house had water damage in the past, you don’t need to repair it first. Tell us what happened — prior claims, repairs done, repairs not done — and we’ll factor it into the offer instead of asking you to fix it.
- If a property was substantially damaged, the township’s floodplain administrator may require it to be brought into compliance (for example, elevated) before major rebuilding. Investors who plan for that work can buy the house in its current state, so that decision isn’t yours to fund.
Selling a Cliffwood Beach house you inherited
- Estates for Monmouth County residents are handled through the Monmouth County Surrogate’s Court in Freehold. The executor named in the will (or an administrator appointed by the court if there’s no will) is the person who can sign to sell.
- You don’t need to empty the house. We buy with furniture, belongings, and clutter left behind.
Behind on payments or facing foreclosure
- New Jersey foreclosures go through the Superior Court, and the sheriff’s sale for a Cliffwood Beach property is conducted by the Monmouth County Sheriff. Until the sale, you generally still own the house and can sell it.
- Selling before the sheriff’s sale can let you pay off the loan from the sale proceeds and keep any remaining equity. Talk to an attorney or a HUD-approved housing counselor too — we’re happy to work alongside them.

Cliffwood Beach FAQ
Is Cliffwood Beach its own town?
No — it’s a community within Aberdeen Township, Monmouth County. Township offices handle taxes, permits, and any required resale inspections. See our Aberdeen Township page for more.
Will you buy a house that still has storm or water damage?
Yes. We buy as-is. You don’t have to repair, remediate, or clean out before selling to us.
Do I have to deal with the resale inspection?
Requirements are set locally and can change, so we confirm them for each property. When we buy as-is, we’ll explain what the township requires and how it’s handled at closing.
