Live in California, Florida, or anywhere else, but own a property in Passaic County? Tony makes a cash offer over the phone and closes the entire New Jersey transaction remotely. You sign with a notary in your home state and never set foot in Paterson.
Owning a property thousands of miles away wears on you. Property taxes you can't easily pay. Code letters from a town you don't visit. Tenants or family members or strangers sending updates that don't add up. The flight back to fix one thing turns into three flights. Tony has closed dozens of remote sales for owners living out of state. You don't fly back. Tony handles everything from this end.
Tony's standard out-of-state closing process for Passaic County properties: cash offer call (you stay where you are), title work and contract signing via remote notary in your home state, wire-transfer of proceeds to your home-state bank account. Total time: 7-14 days from first call.
The kind of row house property Tony has bought in Paterson.
Passaic County, anchored by Paterson and Clifton, is dense urban with extensive two-family and three-family housing stock from the early 1900s.
Paterson tax rates are 3.0-3.8% of assessed value, among the highest in NJ.

Common situations Tony handles for out-of-state owners with Paterson properties: an inherited family home thousands of miles from where the heir now lives, a former primary residence after a job relocation, a rental property the owner has been managing remotely for years and is done with, a divorce sale where one spouse already moved out of state, and an investment property the owner has never lived in.
Paterson is full of older two- and three-families. Tony has bought houses on every side of the Great Falls — including ones that haven't been touched in 40 years. The stock is 1890s-1920s frame two- and three-families with asphalt, vinyl, or brick-face siding on narrow lots, brick four- to eight-unit walk-ups along Main Street and Broadway, tightly packed multi-families through South Paterson and the Riverside and Northside blocks along the Passaic, and larger 1900s single-families and Victorians up in Eastside near the park and in Hillcrest and Lakeview.
Paterson owners call Tony holding buildings that have become a second job. A three-family off 21st Avenue with two rent-controlled tenants and a third unit the city says isn't legal. A parent's house in Eastside, empty since the funeral and now on the city's vacant-property list with a registration fee. A landlord done with the lead-safe inspection cycle on a pre-1978 building, the CCO that never passes, and the code-enforcement letters. A Riverside or Northside house that took water when the Passaic came over its banks in Irene and again in Ida. And tax-sale certificates that were sold years ago and are now in foreclosure. Tony gives one number on the phone and closes on the seller's date, tenants in place.
Paterson requires a Certificate of Continued Occupancy inspection before a resale, plus the smoke, carbon monoxide, and fire extinguisher certificate — Tony's side schedules both and buys with whatever the inspector writes up. The seller pays the NJ Realty Transfer Fee (about 1% on most sales, less for senior and disabled owners on a primary residence). Tax-sale certificates, water liens, and vacant-property fees are paid from proceeds at closing; leases and security deposits transfer to Tony. Blocks along the Passaic in Riverside, Northside, and Bunker Hill are flood-prone, which is a lender problem and not a cash problem.
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.

Contact
Drop your number and Tony reaches out about your Paterson property within an hour.
Yes. Remote notarization is fully recognized in NJ and NY. You sign with a notary in your home state, the documents are video-witnessed by a remote notary, and the deed records normally.
Wire transfer to your home-state bank account on the closing date. Same day the deed records, the funds hit.
That's most of Tony's out-of-state purchases. Tony's offer is based on public records, recent Paterson comps, and your description. Whatever condition the property is in, the offer accounts for it.
Yes. POA documents are accepted at closing. Many out-of-state Paterson sellers have a family member or attorney sign as POA for convenience.
Tony's title company pays them at closing from the proceeds. Same with code violations, water/sewer arrears, or any other municipal liens.
Yes, with the tenants in place. Paterson's rent control follows the building, and Tony takes over as landlord at closing under the same leases and regulated rents. No buyouts, no notices, no waiting for an empty unit. Tell him the unit count and what each pays — and which one isn't paying — and he'll quote one number.
Yes. The certificate is a lien that Tony's title company redeems from your proceeds at closing, and the vacant-property registration fee is settled the same way. If the certificate holder has filed for foreclosure, call right away — until a court enters judgment, the house is still yours to sell.
Yes. Tony buys across every Paterson ZIP code from 07501 to 07524: South Paterson multi-families off 21st Avenue, Eastside Victorians near the park, Riverside and Northside houses along the Passaic, Hillcrest and Lakeview single-families, and walk-ups on Main and Broadway. If it's inside the city, he'll give you a number on the phone.
Yes. Flood damage in Riverside, Northside, and the blocks near the river is a lender problem — banks want elevation certificates and insurance quotes. Tony pays cash, buys the house with the water damage as it stands, and doesn't need it dried out or repaired first. He prices it as-is and the risk is his.
