What Union gives you that its neighbors do not

Union Township is the value play in the middle of Union County. You are close enough to Newark and the Parkway to keep a short commute, but you are usually buying more square footage and more lot than the same money gets you in Cranford or Westfield. Most of the housing stock went up between the 1940s and the 1960s, which means solid construction and, in a lot of cases, systems that are due: ask about the age of the roof, the furnace and the electrical service before you fall in love with the kitchen.

Sections buyers ask about

Battle Hill sits on higher ground with larger single-family homes. Vauxhall is its own distinct neighborhood on the Millburn side. The area around Kean University brings steady rental demand, which matters if you are buying a two-family or thinking about an in-law suite. Prices move block to block here more than they move town to town.

Commuting from Union

Union Station on NJ Transit's Raritan Valley Line connects at Newark Penn Station for New York and the PATH. The Garden State Parkway, Route 22 and I-78 all touch the township, and Newark Liberty International Airport is a short drive. For buyers who need the car more than the train, Union is often the easiest town in the county to get in and out of.

Two-family homes and in-law suites

Union has real inventory of legal two-family homes, and a lot of houses marketed as having an "in-law suite." Those are not the same thing, and the difference matters to your lender and to the township. We check what is on record before you write the offer, not after the appraisal comes back.

Selling a house in Union

What you keep is the list price minus mortgage payoff, municipal certificates, prorated taxes and New Jersey's Realty Transfer Fee. We run that number before we set a price: cuánto cuesta vender una casa en New Jersey en 2026. Then we choose the route — a fast cash offer, an exclusive listing sale, or our highest profit listing program — based on your timeline.
