5-6% of sale price. On a $300K Union house, that's $15,000-$18,000. On a $500K, $25,000-$30,000. You keep all of it.

How Sell Without a Realtor Works in Union
Some Union County sellers think they need an agent to "get top dollar." For the right house, in the right neighborhood, in the right market — sometimes that's true. For a Union property that needs work, has a tenant, is in probate, or just needs to sell now — the agent route costs more than it saves.
Union Neighborhoods
Union Township is 1920s-1950s single-family suburbia: brick and frame capes, colonials, and split-levels in Battle Hill, Putnam Manor, and Larchmont; tighter 1920s-40s two-families and small colonials in Vauxhall near the Millburn line; and garden condos and apartments along Morris Avenue and Route 22. Most houses are on their first or second kitchen, a lot still have oil tanks, and finished basements from the 60s are common. Tony buys the capes, the splits, the Vauxhall two-families, and the condos.

Selling a House in Union: What Tony Already Knows
Union sellers who call Tony are almost always families closing a chapter. The parents bought a Battle Hill cape in 1955, kept it perfect for fifty years, and now the heirs are spread across three states with a house full of belongings and an oil tank they just learned about. Seniors downsizing who want to pick their own moving date. Vauxhall landlords with a two-family, a tenant who is behind, a lead-safe inspection due, and a resale inspection that wants new electric. Owners who fell behind on a Union County tax bill and got a tax-sale certificate notice. A listing means a tank sweep, a full inspection, and a bank with conditions. Tony gives one number on the phone and closes on the seller's date.

What a Union closing actually involves
Union Township resales go through the township's continued-occupancy inspection and the fire department's smoke, carbon monoxide, and fire extinguisher certificate; Tony's side schedules both and buys as-is. Underground oil tanks are common in the older sections and Tony buys with the tank in place. The seller pays the NJ Realty Transfer Fee (about 1% on most sales, reduced for senior and disabled owners on a principal residence). Tax-sale certificates are redeemed from proceeds at closing and tenant leases transfer to Tony. Standard three-business-day NJ attorney review; no lender, so no appraisal.
How a Cash Offer on a Union House Is Actually Built
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.

Questions From Union Sellers
Don't I need an agent to find a buyer in Union?
Tony is the buyer. There's no buyer to find — you're calling the buyer directly. No MLS, no Zillow listing, no showings.
What about MLS exposure for my Union house?
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.
Won't I get less by skipping the agent in Union?
Sometimes a tiny bit less, sometimes more. The commission savings often more than offset any difference. And if your Union house needs work, has a complication, or just needs to sell fast — the agent route nets you less in the end.
Do I need to sign anything before talking to Tony about my Union house?
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.
Does Tony buy in every section of Union Township — Vauxhall, Battle Hill, Putnam Manor, Larchmont, Union Center?
Yes. Tony buys anywhere in 07083: Battle Hill and Putnam Manor capes and colonials, Larchmont splits, Vauxhall two-families near the Millburn line, and condos along Morris Avenue and Route 22. If it's inside the township, he'll give you a number on the phone.
My parents' Union house has an underground oil tank. Do I need to remove it before selling?
No. Tony buys the house with the tank in the ground — in use, abandoned, or leaking — and handles removal and any cleanup after closing. Retail buyers and their banks want a sweep, soil test, and removal certificate before closing; Tony asks for none of that, and his number already accounts for it.
I'm a senior selling my Union cape. Can I stay in the house until I'm ready to move?
Yes. Tony closes on your date and you can stay in the house until the day you've chosen, whether that's next week or two months from now. There are no open houses, no strangers walking through, and no clean-out — leave whatever furniture you don't want and he clears it after closing.
Will Tony buy my Vauxhall two-family in Union Township with a tenant in place?
Yes. The tenant's lease transfers to Tony at closing and he takes over as landlord, including a tenant who is behind or has no written lease. You don't need to serve notices or wait for a vacancy. Tell him the rent and the situation and he'll quote one number for the house.
