Here on Long Island any decent house ignites a bidding war.

I’m going through this right now with a relative. It’s crazy.

Be aware that Long Island property taxes are so high that many Long Island houses are not properly maintained and updated.

“I’m going through this right now with a relative. It’s crazy.”

It is crazy. You’ve got a guy likely to be elected New York City mayor promising to raise taxes on corporations in NYC, which will likely drive them out.

Long Island house prices are dependent to a considerate extent on having high salary jobs in NYC.

My searches on realtor.com indicate New Jersey houses are better maintained.
