Summit NJ Home Buyers, Did you know, the Federal Reserve has cut the interest rate they charge banks 1.25% over the past few weeks? This could have a huge effect on the home you can now afford to purchase in Summit NJ or other surrounding towns.
Have you talked with your mortgage person lately? With every 1% mortgage interest rate reduction the typical mortgage payment drops 9%. This can make a huge difference in the home you can afford. For example, if you thought that the highest home price you could afford was $700,000 you could move that number up to $763,000 with a 1% mortgage interest rate cut, and still have approximately the same mortgage payment.

Spring NJ Real Estate Market On The Midtown Direct Line
Ok, it is not really spring, but the spring NJ Real Estate market has started already. They buyers are out there and guess what, they are buying. I currently have 5 transactions under contract, and am working with more active buyers.
Here is where the problem comes in, there are lots of NJ homes on the market but not very many which are nice, and priced properly.
Today's NJ home buyer is very smart, and they are not about to over pay for a home or buy a home that does not meet most of their needs at a proper price. They will wait for the proper home to come along at a proper fair price.
Many people seem to think that the home buyers out there looking at New Jersey homes are all just low ballers trying to steal someones home from them. Let me assure you that this is not the case. I have not written a low ball offer on any property in the last 6 months. (My definition of a low ball offer is a offer which is 8% or more below the current asking price.)
NJ Homes seem to be in particular demand in towns along the Midtown Direct Train Line such as Madison NJ, Chatham NJ, and Summit NJ. In fact the Summit NJ Real Estate market is particularly strong when compaired to other towns real estate markets in New Jersey. This is especially true when looking at NJ real estate markets which are not on train lines.

Morristown NJ 07960 a walking town
With ever higher gas prices and worsening traffic congestion many people are wanting to make a change.
Towns like Morristown New Jersey are making it possible to live without a car for the most part. With many homes within walking distance of Morristowns downtown and central green it becomes much easier to just walk a few blocks to the store or that 3 or 4 star restaurant, or to the theaters. The Morristown train station is just a short walk from downtown Morristown NJ as well. From the Morristown train station you can connect to the Midtown Direct Line and be in Manhattan NYC in no time at all.
There are plenty of new construction condos going up in Morristown as well. Some of them would qualify as Luxury Condominiums such as Vail Mansion and Dehart Place. More affordable condos are being built at Vail Commons over on Speedwell Avenue just off the Morristown Green.
If you are thinking of making a change and would like to live in a town which makes it possible to walk or ride a bike or take the train for most all of your needs, consider moving to Morristown NJ 07960.

Morris Twp wants to watch your every move.
Morris Twp. Big Brother 1984 in 2008, lets hope not.
Morris Township Mayor Robert Nace said the overwhelming majority of residents he's spoken to support the idea of installing cameras at intersections to catch drivers who speed through red lights.
Many may not like the Big Brother side of this solution to a supposed problem. Putting the cameras in at traffic intersections allows the government to track the public's movements and record the times that people come and go. All of this done using our own hard earned money.
Is this what Morris Township or other New Jersey towns need to be spending money on??
I think that Morris Township Mayor Nace, who happens to be my neighbor is headed down the wrong road on this one. My understanding is that Mayor Nace is a Republican, I wish he would take up some of the values of a Republican.
Republican Values (Low Taxes, Low Government Spending, and Public Liberty)
