Hi,

My testimonials and experience speaks for itself. My primary area of focus is the NJ Gold Coast, with the majority of my sales between Jersey City and Fort Lee in the luxury home, condo and townhome market. I am also licensed in Manhattan and will use my NYC broker connections as an outlet to also advertise your home to Manhattan buyers.
My website is www.luxuryonthehudson.com
Please take a look at the section entitled "About April" and "Testimonials". You will not be disappointed.

Good tip from Jerry - I plan to explore that site, hadn't heard of it before now.
From there, connect with a local agent to add a final touch to your analysis and assist you with listing your condo. As with a sale, you will do best with smart pricing and maximized exposure. An experienced agent can help you with both.
Best,

It's always good to invest in a property that meets your "lifestyle" needs. This includes the things that generally drive saleability and resale value. NEW "up and coming" neighborhoods might be those that offer better or increased services than in the past, highly rated or improving schools, newly available infrastructure or transportation alternatives. Areas close to Manhattan usually have stable values due to the close proximity to job opportunities. If you are looking to live or invest in the Gold Coast area of Bergen or Hudson County, give me a call or email ConcordBroker@gmail.com... more
I hope you have bought your new home and settled in Weehawken by now. I am a native of Weehawken and lived there for over 29 years. I still return from time to time. Weehawken in a small city but the crime there is very low, hardly any at all. I am sure you will be quite safe there. However I wll advise you to stay away from Jersey City.. especially the Greenville section. Sincerely Yours, Robin Haines... more
Hi Happy,
So want did you do? What happened and where are you within the Short Sale process?
The $1,000 good faith deposit was going to happen, it shows you have interest in the property and gives the homeowner some form of verification that you are a true buyer. Since there is actually no accepted offer there is no reason for you to tie up any further money and I hope you did not.
Did you speak to the Realtor or Attorney involved and make sure that you are not going to be charged for any service if the bank does not accept your offer?
Please give us an update!... more
Hi Judith,
I'll stick with my answer and the positive feed back that I have received from the people who live in the neighborhood. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

Damien,
The best way for you to know that is to try to find out what similar units have rented for, if there are any. Have you looked on craigslist? Or spoken with a realtor who does rentals in that building? That would be a good place to start. I can tell you that 1 bedrooms of that size in the nicer buildings in Hoboken top out in the $2000 to $2200 range, depending on if they have parking. Riva Pointe is very nearby and competes with Hoboken for renters.

Hi. It really depends, newer properties tend to be higher than say an older multi family or single family home. Can be anywhere from 6k - 15k depending on when it was assessed. It has to do with the city's budget.
If you're buying new construction then I would recommend you contact Weehawken's tax assessors office directly and have him calculate it for you.
If it's an existing property I can look up for you what the properties taxes currently are. Contrary to belief, the property taxes are not adjusted with each new purchase price/transaction.

You can use with confidence Tom Bruffy at Apple Tree Home Inspections-973-981-6401.
Please tell him Kevin Dowd from Prudential Castle Point Realty referred you!
Hello JJ. I have seen some homes that do rent out individual rooms however to be safe, as the other agent said, you should contact the city of weehawken rental board and ask. If you9;re living in the house and decide to rent out rooms as roommates then that's a different story and is completely at your discretion.
Just be careful and make sure that the tenants are all on signed leases and that you have security deposits. Also Weehawken is a tight knit community so if you do rent out individual rooms to a large, remember some neighbors can be nosy.
Hope this helps!

Sales office will often tell you a lot of unit are not available because it's sold. Don't believe it, it's a sales strategy, they are trying to limit you within a certain choices and push you buying. As far as I know, my recent client bought a duplex there for a little over 600k with no view. Town houses resales are a little over 1mil, great view. Why bother to buy the new construction?? You have to decorate from the scratch, not mention the higher preperty tax on new homes!!... more
Hi Kimchee, you may already have your agent identified, but I would suggest that you be open minded to agents that are newer to the business - not brand new, and not part timers - agents that have built a book of business over the last difficult years most likely possess great skills. Also, look for a comfort with, and commitment to online tools, plus I'd add analytic muscle.
Good luck!

Hi Jab if you want a copy of the Weehawken's rent control laws you can get it from Clerk's Office. It costs about $15 for a copy. I don't remember the exact address but they're on Park right above the Lincoln tunnel. You can call the clerk at 201-319-6022. If you call them make sure to mention how many units are in the house.
Here is their website

HI Kenny
All good answers thus far,
Don't wait until you have a signed contract..........look into an attorney now, so you will be prepared when the time comes.
The 3 day attorney review period clock starts clicking as soon as the contracts are full signed and returned to the parties. It doesn't start when you find an attorney.............so you'd be wise to have one lined up, ready to use.
Be aware that the first thing the attorney will do is send a letter cancelling the contract (some buyers get nervous when they read that letter)...they must cancel it in order to reinstate it with the changes they want to make..This is all part of the normal process, so don't let the verbiage worry you.
If you are wokring with a Realtor,, they should be able to give you a few names of local real estate attorneys.
As Jeanne mentioned, generally, the closing takes place at the buyer's attorney's office, so it would be good for you to use someone local, or at least somewhere in the general area.
Good luck!

Hi Kenny, have to agree with Anna on this one - this is precisely how an agent can assist you - find yourself a good local agent to work with and then let them do their job. You do not have to work so hard pulling together comps - this is a great questions to present to any agent you are considering - do you know the comps, can/will you share them, are you comfortable with the analytics - and watch for the proof of their know how. A good agent will add great value - no need to work so hard Kenny.
Focus on budget, get preapproved, and then enjoy the search. Let your agent do the heavy lifting with comps, pricing analysis, market analysis etc.
Good luck to you Kenny - it is a super time to be looking and buying if you ask me. The interest rate and tax credit advantage are so terrific and will not last forever.
Best,

I can sit with you and review recent solds according to both the tax records and mls statistics.in your builiding as well as the surrounding area. Please consider the rate of depreciation when coming up with a price. Also consider the days on the market as it relates to the absorption rate. This is all pretty straight forward stuff.
Please feel free to contact me if you'd like to review in further detail.
