B&Co. Realty · Fort Lee, New Jersey
Boutique luxury real estate brokerage in Fort Lee, NJ.
B&Co. Realty advises buyers and sellers across Fort Lee — from luxury high-rise residences to single-family neighborhoods — with senior-led advisory and Manhattan on the doorstep.
Fort Lee Market
Two markets in one town — towers and neighborhoods.
Fort Lee spans luxury high-rise condominiums with skyline views and established single-family neighborhoods, all at the foot of the George Washington Bridge. Each trades on different terms; B&Co. Realty reads both and positions a home for the right buyer, whether a view residence or a family house.
Buyers
Access to established, pre-market, and privately-held Fort Lee homes through a vetted network — not just what is publicly listed.
Sellers
Discreet positioning and senior-only execution for Fort Lee homes, calibrated to the right buyer and the right timing.
Builders
Parcel and design-aware intelligence for Fort Lee tear-downs, renovations, and new-construction opportunities.
Reading Fort Lee
The setting. The building. The next chapter.
Begin with the particular address: the bus route to New York, the building as it stands, and the changes being considered. These are useful starting points for a purchase, a sale or a renovation conversation.
Connection
NJ TRANSIT’s route descriptions name Fort Lee on routes 153, 154, 156, 158 and 159 to the Port Authority Bus Terminal, among others — see the commute page for every New York route the operator names to the Borough — and its route list names Fort Lee on route 755 to Paramus and Edgewater. Review the published schedules and the Borough’s residential permit parking rules alongside the property.
Context
The Borough publishes its zoning map and the Planning Board’s meeting calendar, agendas, minutes and application forms. Use those records to place an address in context before deciding what to retain, change or add.
Possibility
A renovation begins with the existing building and a clear scope. Fort Lee’s Building Department inspects work to the New Jersey Uniform Construction Code and lists the ordinary maintenance that needs no permit; bring the property’s records and proposed work into that discussion early.
Service Areas
Fort Lee first. The Gold Coast fluent.
By the State’s numbers
Fort Lee in the Division of Taxation’s tables.
What the State publishes about residential property tax in Fort Lee, taken from the New Jersey Division of Taxation’s own tables for tax year 2025 and its 2026 assessment list. Averages describe the municipality, not any one home; a given property’s bill is its own assessment times the rate.
| General tax rate, 2025 | 2.700 per $100 of assessed value |
|---|---|
| Effective tax rate, 2025 | 1.839 |
| Average residential assessment, 2025 | $480,856 |
| Average residential tax bill, 2025 | $12,983 |
| Residential sales tabulated, 2025 | 313 · average price $701,180 |
| Residential line items, 2025 | 8,391 |
| Average residential assessment, 2026 list | $481,982 |
Figures as published by the New Jersey Division of Taxation: 2025 General Tax Rates by County and Municipality, 2025 Average Residential Statistics and 2026 Average Residential Statistics, read 13 September 2026. In the Division’s own definitions, the general tax rate is the multiplier used to determine the tax levied on each property, expressed as $1 per $100 of taxable assessed value, and is the rate a bill is computed from; the effective tax rate is a statistical comparison of one district with another on the assumption that all are assessed at full value, and is not to be used to compute a bill. The sales row counts the residential sales the Division tabulated for the year and their average price, which is not a median and not a market report. The 2026 figure is the assessment list against which the 2026 rate will be struck once the county certifies it. The same figures for all fifteen town pages are published as data at /data/town-tax.json.
