Teaneck Houses

The Teaneck, NJ housing market can be hard on buyers and sellers. Teaneck, with 39,260 residents as of the 2000 census, has about 14,000 housing units all told - with 98% of these occupied at any given time. (The US average is only 91%.) What this means is that it's a vibrant, healthy community with few houses on the market - and it also means that there can be significant price pressure in the Teaneck real estate market.

Finding a Home in Teaneck

We at FSBO Teaneck decided to make the process of buying and selling houses in Teaneck easier and cheaper for buyers and sellers. Here's how: with one, central web site for FSBO listings in Teaneck, now buyers can easily find Teaneck homes that are being offered by the people who know them best: the owners. And Teaneck sellers now have a site where they can advertise their houses for sale by owner for free, instead of listing a house with a real estate agent. While New Jersey real estate commissions are negotiable, 6% is still the norm. Back in 2000, the median value of Teaneck homes was $208,800, but these days, homes sell for hundreds of thousands of dollars above that figure - in some cases, surpassing the million-dollar mark. Do the math, and that makes for some whopping commissions.

FSBO Teaneck is Different

There's another way to buy and sell a home in Teaneck: directly, with no middlemen between the buyer and seller. FSBO (for sale by owner) sales skip the middleman, so they skip the commission, too. That means it's a lot cheaper for everyone involved, since many sellers who do use agents raise their prices to partially or fully cover that 6%.

What FSBO Teaneck does is help bring these buyers and sellers together. We're not a party to the transaction, and in fact receive no commission from anyone, neither buyer nor seller. The sellers include their properties on our site for free - though we encourage donations. The buyers find those properties here at FSBO Teaneck, also for free, and contact the sellers directly. That's all there is to it.
