How much commission do I save by selling my Brick house to Tony directly?
5-6% of sale price. On a $300K Brick house, that's $15,000-$18,000. On a $500K, $25,000-$30,000. You keep all of it.
Real estate agents charge 5-6% commission. On a typical Ocean County sale that's $20,000-$40,000 gone before you see a dime. Tony charges nothing. The cash quote is the cash you keep on your Brick property.

The kind of cape property Tony has bought in Brick.
Ocean County is shore-heavy: Toms River, Brick, Lakewood, Long Beach Island. Sandy-era rebuilds, 55+ communities (Holiday City, Silver Ridge), and Lakewood multi-family expansion are all common.
Ocean County tax rates are 2.0-2.5%; shore-property assessments often lag actual market values.

Why do agents in Brick push for a price reduction after 30 days on the market? Because their job is to close — yours or someone else's. Their commission is the same whether your house sells for $400K or $375K. Tony's offer is direct; there's no agent incentive working against you.
Brick Township ranches and Cape Cods, especially ones still rebuilding from Sandy, are common Tony purchases. As-is means as-is — even if the basement still floods. The stock is 1950s-70s ranches and capes on the lagoons and along the Metedeconk and Barnegat Bay in Shore Acres, Baywood, and Cherry Quay; 1960s-80s splits and colonials inland in Herbertsville, Laurelton, and Cedarbridge; the Greenbriar 55+ communities; and bungalows and raised rebuilds on the barrier island in Brick Beach and Normandy Beach. Oil tanks and septic systems are still common in the older sections.
Brick owners call Tony holding lagoon houses and family houses. The lagoon house in Shore Acres or Baywood took four feet of water in Sandy, got patched on the ground floor, and has never been raised — and the flood insurance bill has tripled. The family house is a 1964 Laurelton ranch with the original kitchen, an oil tank, and heirs in three states. Add Greenbriar residents downsizing who want to name the date, landlords with a rented cape and a tenant who is behind, and owners who fell behind on the tax bill and got a tax-sale certificate notice. A listing means a flood disclosure, a tank sweep, and a buyer whose bank wants an elevation certificate. Tony gives one number on the phone and closes on the seller's date.
Every Brick sale needs the fire official's smoke detector, carbon monoxide, and fire extinguisher certificate and the township's resale inspection, both scheduled by Tony's side. Buyers' attorneys routinely require an underground oil tank sweep and, on the lagoons and the bay, a flood elevation certificate — Tony asks for neither. The seller pays the NJ Realty Transfer Fee (about 1% on most sales, reduced for senior and disabled owners on a principal residence). Greenbriar sales go through the association's resale process, tax-sale certificates are redeemed from proceeds at closing, and incomplete Sandy permits and rebuild grants don't stop a cash closing.
Every cash buyer, Tony included, starts from the same three numbers: what the house would sell for fully renovated, what it costs to get it there, and how long that takes. The offer is that finished value minus the repairs, minus the buyer's resale costs and margin. In practice that lands most cash offers somewhere around 70–85% of the renovated value, less repairs. The honest comparison is not against a renovated house's list price — it is against what you would actually net from a NJ listing after commission, repairs, and months of carrying costs.
| Line item | List with an agent | Sell to Tony |
|---|---|---|
| What the house would sell for fully renovated | $400,000 | $400,000 |
| Repairs a retail buyer's lender will demand | − $45,000 | Tony's problem |
| Agent commission (5–6%) | − $20,000 to $24,000 | $0 |
| Inspection credits, seller closing costs, concessions | − $8,000 to $12,000 | $0 |
| Taxes, insurance, mortgage, utilities while you wait (3–6 months) | − $9,000 to $15,000 | $0 |
| Time to cash in hand | 4 to 7 months | 7 to 14 days |
| What you actually walk away with | ≈ $305,000 to $318,000 | Tony's number, in full, on your date |
Whether Tony's number beats that listing net depends on the house. On a move-in-ready home in a hot NJmarket it usually will not, and Tony will tell you to list. On a house that needs work, has tenants, sits in an estate, or carries violations — the houses retail buyers cannot finance — it is often close, and the seven-day timeline is the difference. Call 1-908-768-4759, get the number, and compare it yourself.

Tony is the buyer. There's no buyer to find — you're calling the buyer directly. No MLS, no Zillow listing, no showings.
MLS exposure is how agents find buyers. Tony doesn't need it because Tony already has cash and is already the buyer. The whole reason for MLS evaporates.
Sometimes a tiny bit less, sometimes more. The commission savings often more than offset any difference. And if your Brick house needs work, has a complication, or just needs to sell fast — the agent route nets you less in the end.
No listing agreement. No exclusivity. No "right to sell." You call, Tony makes an offer, you decide. If you say no, you owe nothing — there's no contract until you sign one at closing.
Yes. A Shore Acres, Baywood, or Cherry Quay house that was patched but not elevated is exactly what retail buyers and their lenders walk away from. Tony pays cash, buys it as it stands — flood history, open permits, and all — and doesn't need an elevation certificate or a flood policy. He prices it as-is and the risk becomes his.
Yes. Tony buys in Greenbriar I and II and the other Brick adult communities, including units with original kitchens, association arrears, or an estate still in probate. His attorney handles the association's resale paperwork and the age restriction. You name the closing date and stay in the unit until then.
Yes. Tony buys anywhere in 08723 and 08724: Herbertsville and Laurelton splits, Cedarbridge colonials, lagoon ranches in Shore Acres and Baywood, Greenbriar units, and bungalows and rebuilds in Brick Beach and Normandy Beach on the island. If it's inside the township, he'll give you a number on the phone.
No. Tony buys with the tank in the ground and the septic as it is — no sweep, no soil test, no septic certification. Those are conditions a lender imposes, and there is no lender. Tony handles tank removal and any septic work after closing, and his number already accounts for it.
Save $20K+ on a typical Ocean County sale. Call Tony at 1-908-768-4759 — direct buyer, no agent.
