I live a town over from Midland Park and invest in Bergen and Passaic county...you need to go off market because any decent deal that hits the MLS here goes into a bidding war. Pull a list off of listsource with your criteria and market to them. Everyone wants a 1-4 family here though

@Matt Kitchen Granite is a natural porous stone meaning it will absorb liquids. It also needs to be resealed (pretty easy process just google it) 

Quartz is man-made & non porous. Nearly indestructible

In terms of longevity there isn't a crazy difference but I prefer quartz. Quartz is also more hygienic/bacteria free. Most homeowners/renters don't know the difference anyway. 

You'll save $ going to a wholesaler for countertops too
