Real Estate
in Ship Bottom

Ship Bottom is less than a square mile where the causeway lands on Long Beach Island, with single-family houses and duplexes from the ocean to the bay, commercial frontage along the boulevard, and far more owners in summer than in winter. Most sales are of existing homes, the price of a house comes from the sales on its own blocks, and flood insurance and whether a house is raised come up in most sales.

Buying here

Buying a Home
in Ship Bottom

Buyers in Ship Bottom work with John and Justin on the borough's houses and duplexes. The team compares each property with recent sales on its own blocks, prepares and negotiates the offer, and sees the purchase through closing.

Selling here

Selling a Home
in Ship Bottom

A Ship Bottom property is priced against recent sales on its own blocks, and an older house that has not been raised sells for less than a rebuilt one. John and Justin price the home, list it, and represent the seller to closing.
