Can Tony buy my Union house if foreclosure has already started?
Yes. Tony has stopped foreclosure sales 5 days before the auction date. The earlier you call, the more options exist — but Tony has closed deals at the eleventh hour too.
Most New Jersey sellers in foreclosure don't know this: Tony's offer covers your full mortgage payoff at closing — and you often walk away with cash above what you owe. Tony has stopped Union County-area foreclosures days before the sheriff's sale.
If you're embarrassed to be in this situation, you shouldn't be. Tony has worked with hundreds of Union-area homeowners facing foreclosure. You're not the first person to make this call, and you won't be the last. Tony doesn't judge, doesn't lecture, and doesn't waste your time.
Union County foreclosure timelines move slow until they suddenly move fast. By the time the sheriff's sale is scheduled, you have weeks, not months. Tony's title company can pay off your lender at closing and have cash in your hand before the auction date. Many Union sellers walk away with thousands above the payoff.

The kind of two family property Tony has bought in Union.
Union County is dense urban-suburban: Elizabeth, Plainfield, Union, Linden. Two-family and three-family housing stock is common.
Union County tax rates are 2.5-3.2%; Elizabeth and Plainfield are at the higher end.

Most Union County sellers facing foreclosure don't realize Tony's deal pays off the lender automatically — at closing, with title company funds. You don't have to bring a check to the bank. The wire from Tony's title company to your lender happens the same day you sign. Anything above the payoff goes to you.
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.
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.
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.
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.

Yes. Tony has stopped foreclosure sales 5 days before the auction date. The earlier you call, the more options exist — but Tony has closed deals at the eleventh hour too.
In most cases, yes — if your Union house has any equity. Tony's offer pays off your mortgage and back taxes first, then the difference goes to you. On a typical NJ or NY property with 10-30% equity, that's $20,000-$80,000 in your pocket instead of vanishing into the foreclosure process.
Tony works with your lender on a short sale. Lenders often agree because Tony's deal is faster and more certain than waiting for sheriff's sale. You walk away with no continuing debt — much better than the foreclosure outcome.
The title company gets a payoff statement from your lender. At closing, Tony's wire goes to the title company; the title company sends your lender exactly what's owed and gives the rest to you. All same day.
Yes, significantly. A foreclosure stays on your credit for 7 years and triggers higher rates on future credit. Selling — even a short sale — has a much smaller credit impact and lets you start rebuilding immediately.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Every day matters now. Call 1-908-768-4759. Tony stops Union County foreclosures and pays you the difference.
