3 Ways To Buy A Home At The Jersey Shore For Less Than $200,000

How to purchase a vacation home or investment at the NJ shore for under $200,000

Buying a vacation home at the Jersey shore may seem out of reach for most people.  Typical beach homes range in the $400,000 range and up.  However it is possible to purchase something much less and and actually keep the price under $200,000.  Here are 3 ways to purchase a NJ shore beach home for less than $200,000.

Choose a location further from the beach.

Many of our shore town have areas that are further from the beach.  These sections typically have more year round residents and more affordable prices.  For example, I recently listed this ranch home in Ventnor Heights that was raised and renovated and is currently priced at $190,000.  Click here for details on the house.

201 N Somerset Ave, Ventnor, NJ

Choose An Up And Coming Area

Not all shore towns are priced the same and if you’re looking to spend less choose an up and coming area like Atlantic City.  Prices for many homes and condos are under $200,000.  There are some great locations in Atlantic City and some not so great locations.  Choose a local agent who can help you find the right location and home.

Look For A Home Off Shore

If you’re willing to take a short drive you can get more house for the money off shore.  Communities like Somers Point are just a 5 minute drive into Ocean City.  Absecon is just 5 minutes from Atlantic City and 10 minutes to Brigantine.  And if you’re will to drive a little further communities like Egg Harbor Township, Linwood, Northfield and Galloway are within a 20 minute drive to the beaches.

If you’re considering purchasing a shore home or investment please contact us for a free consultation.  No matter what your budget is we’re here to help.

Don’t Do These 3 Things If You Want To Sell Your Egg Harbor Township, NJ House

Here are 3 critical mistakes you want to avoid to sell your Egg Harbor Township, NJ House.

Read this first before making one of these 3 critical mistakes seller’s make when selling their Egg Harbor Township, NJ home.

  • Over price the home!  This may seem like a no brainer but many home sellers will over price their home thinking they will net more money.  In fact overpricing your home can actually lead to netting less than if you priced it right from the beginning.  Most home sellers will overprice their homes for the following reasons:
    • Bad information.  They may have inaccurate information on what their home is worth.
    • Room for negotiations.  Sellers may price the home high expecting to get a lower offer.  However if the home is priced too high you won’t get any offers
    • Net proceeds.  Some sellers will price the home based on what they need to net rather than what the home is worth.
  • Prepare the home to be sold.  Home staging works to help the house show like a model home.  If the house is messy or cluttered or dirty it will not show well and may turn off buyers completely.  Preparing your home to be sold helps your Egg Harbor Township home sell faster and for more money.  We offer our clients a Room By Room Home Staging Checklist to help them prepare the home to be sold.  We also work with professional home stagers that can provide services to home owners and even furnish and decorate vacant homes.
  • Bad photography.  It’s amazing how many homes I see for sale online with horrible photos.  There are blurry pictures, dark pictures, pictures with the home owner in them etc.  Most home buyers start their search on the internet and pictures are the first impression.  You only get one chance to make a great first impression.  Make sure you have great photos and use a professional photographer.

I hope this list helps you as you prepare to sell your Egg Harbor Township, NJ home.  Contact us for a free consultation so we can help you net more money and have a faster sale.  Best wishes, Matt

7 Tips To Choose A Real Estate Agent For Selling In Egg Harbor Township NJ

Don't hire a real estate agent in Egg Harbor Township without checking on these things first

Selling your Egg Harbor Township home is a big decision.  Buying and selling a home can be one of the largest financial decisions you will make in your lifetime.  Here are 7 tips for picking a great real estate agent for selling your Egg Harbor Township home.
  1. Talk with agents’ recent clients.  Ask for a list of past clients and references from the agent your considering.  Check for online testimonials and reviews.
  2. Check for license and disciplinary actions.  You can look up agent’s NJ license numbers here: https://www20.state.nj.us/DOBI_LicSearch/recSearch.jsp
  3. Ask about professional awards.  NJ agents receive the Circle Of Excellence Award.  If the agent hasn’t earned this award in the past year they are most likely not a full time agent and have not done an exceptional volume of business.  My dad and I have consistently earned this award.  Last year we earned the silver and bronze awards.
  4. Select the right broker.  The company does matter.  Keller Williams Realty is the #1 selling broker in Egg Harbor Township, NJ with 263 units sold last year.
  5. Find out how experienced an agent is.  Ask for the number of transactions the agent has had over the  past year. Combined The Haviland Group had 67+ transitions sides and over $12 million in sales volume in 2018.
  6. Look at the agent’s current listings and sold listings.  Does the agent have listings for sale in Egg Harbor Township and how many sold in the last year? Last year we sold 14 homes in Egg Harbor Township.
  7. Gauge the agent’s knowledge of the area.  Egg Harbor Township is a unique location.  It’s a large township with everything from waterfront homes, farm properties, developments, 55 and over communities and golf course properties.  Each section of the township is different and you need an agent that understands this.
