Thanks for watching! I actually live in Bergen County but made this video a couple years ago during Covid when we were seeing a lot of folks moving to North Carolina from New Jersey. Are you looking for a multi family in NC?

@@LivinginNorthernNJ Yes! Looking for a house hack / multi family property.

It’s hot there! When did you move to Arizona?

What’s changed about it do you think?

@@LivinginNorthernNJ West Paterson used to be a family oriented town when people cared about each other more, now just like any other the influx of of so many cultures and nationalities the town is a little divided. The taxes are very high and homes are trending up. I never lived in West Paterson, but I lived 3 blocks away in Paterson. I now reside in Totowa which for now remains okay even with the changes.

@@stephengarofalo863 I lived in Westmount Village when it was West Paterson back in the day

Oh my gosh! That’s a huge gap. Were you able to come to resolution yet?

@@LivinginNorthernNJ I will let you know what happens.

@dontfeedthepirates good luck!!

@@LivinginNorthernNJ The deal fell through they’ve been there since the 90s a lot of sentimental value, they won’t move.

@dontfeedthepirates Ugh. That stinks. All the upfront work you put in and some money for inspections. If it appraised or they got a cash offer I’m sure they’d move. Why put it on the market to begin with, you know? Sorry it didn’t work out, but the right house will come to you when the time is right.

Happy to chat @trishiegirl311 !

Thanks for watching!

It’s crazy how a majority of the old Lord and Taylor building has been empty. Probably only a matter of time before Best Buy calls it quits there as well.

Appreciate you watching!

Thanks for that feedback. My newer videos I got better with editing 😉

Thanks for watching! Are you buying in New Jersey? If so, you should have an attorney involved to try to negotiate this. Have you spoken to your lender about options of getting it reappraised? Everyone should want this to close since you’re far into the process so the lender may pay for another appraisal with another appraiser. Or maybe the seller is willing to cover part of the cost. The issue is that if this deal dies and they take another deal with a loan, the buyer’s lender may appraise at a similar amount. Has your agent provided comps to help justify the appraisal?

Thanks for watching! Consider towns like Rutherford, Wood Ridge or Hasbrouck Heights. You can find some really nice properties in those towns and the commute is a breeze. If you need representation from an agent, please reach out I’m happy to help. 973-382-9128

Chrissssssss Tartaaaaaa!

There’s always something in real estate! I tell my clients to just focus on the end goal as best as possible and walk away if it’s too much or not enough accommodations throughout the process

Lodi born and bred!

Thanks for watching!

Aren't the updates amazing @shaqj6471?

@essys1991 thanks for watching and describing why you like living in Hackensack! The boom is definitely happening there it’s amazing to watch!

What part is closest to NY transit? I'm coming for California and I have teens. Looking to buy a home here. Any suggestions?

@andriataylor4758 in Hackensack? What kind of home are you looking for? There are high rise condos and single family homes near both train or bus

@@LivinginNorthernNJ Yes, Hackensack. I'm looking for a single family home or townhouse. Something updated if possible.

Feel free to give me a call or text and let's chat about it. Your budget, etc can impact what you're looking for . If you're looking for agent fiduciary representation, I'm happy to help you find that place. Cell: 973-382-9128

@Yashbeats. That's becoming a very popular area more and more. Great location and very close to a Light Rail station. I can't steer you and say one area is family friendly or "good"...you should definitely check that out on your own by visiting the area. But you can also take a look at www.niche.com and do some research on the Bergen-Lafayette and Greenville sections of Jersey City. This is also a good website to explore: everythingjerseycity.com/

Indeed, LOL!

Thanks for watching! Are you a mortgage rep in NJ? We should connect!

@@LivinginNorthernNJ Yes I am! and definitely, What's your email??

@maggielin8810 thanks for watching! Usually the CO is fire alarm, carbon monoxide detector and fire extinguisher in the kitchen. The town won’t check anything else usually. If the house was listed without saying the buyer is responsible to obtain CO, the seller will handle. Some properties (like bank owned) usually require the buyer to handle and will indicate as such in the listing. If you discover open permits or discrepancies in room counts (OPRA and tax card request from the town), you can ask your attorney to negotiate either closing the permits prior to closing or possibly renegotiate a credit if room counts don’t match the tax card (for example…house listed as 4 bedroom, but tax card shows house is 3 bedroom). If there’s a room count discrepancy, the seller may have done work without getting proper permits. That’s a risk you’d want to discuss with your attorney to talk through your options.

@@LivinginNorthernNJ do we have to check this before our inspection contingency due or it can be anytime before closing?

@@maggielin8810 the sooner the better. Try to do it within the inspection contingency but talk to your attorney as well. The town has 7 days to fulfill the OPRA and tax card request. You do it on the town’s website.

@@LivinginNorthernNJ great information, thanks.

@maggielin8810 Good luck!

Parts of it are in a flood zone. Go on fema.org and check the home’s address to see if it’s in a flood zone or not. Thanks for watching! Feel free to contact me if you need help!
