What land do you buy in Ocean County?

We buy wooded Pine Barrens lots, vacant parcels, and wetland-edge land across Manchester, Lacey, Little Egg Harbor, Barnegat, Jackson, and Plumsted. Many of these lots were sold off decades ago and never built on. If that sounds like yours, send us the details.

How do the Pinelands and CAFRA affect Ocean County land?

The interior of the county sits in the Pinelands, where management areas limit building and parcels may carry development credits. Closer to the bay and the islands, CAFRA and wetland rules apply. We understand both, which lets us make offers on land that stumps out-of-area buyers. See Pinelands-restricted land and wetlands and unbuildable land.

Common reasons people sell here

Inherited Pine Barrens lots, out-of-state owners who bought a parcel years ago, and land behind on taxes. See out-of-state owners and back taxes.

The shore and bay land we want most

Ocean County stretches from the Pine Barrens to the barrier islands, and the coastal and bay-side parcels are high on our list. Back-bay lots and marsh-edge ground near Little Egg Harbor, Tuckerton, Barnegat, and the Long Beach Island area often carry CAFRA and wetland flags that scare off other buyers. We want them. If your parcel is near the water, send it to us.

Towns and areas we buy in

We buy across the mainland: Manchester, Lacey, Berkeley, Stafford, Barnegat, Little Egg Harbor, Eagleswood, Tuckerton, Ocean Township (Waretown), Jackson, and Plumsted. Wooded Pine Barrens lots that were sold off decades ago and never built on are a specialty.
