Full transparency is one of the most important protections a seller has in a New Jersey transaction.

Sellers are legally required to disclose known material conditions, including flooding history, structural concerns, unpermitted work, environmental issues, and more.

Failing to disclose can result in significant legal liability — even after the closing is complete.

Save this and share it with anyone preparing to sell in NJ.

Before purchasing a property, it’s important to understand what you are legally permitted — and not permitted — to do with it.

Deed restrictions stay with the property itself and apply to every owner, not just the original buyer.

A thorough title search identifies these restrictions before closing so there are no unexpected limitations later.

Call us at 973-890-7262 before you close.

Property taxes in NJ can catch buyers and sellers completely off guard at closing.

Between proration, escrow accounts, and there is a lot more to understand than most people realize before they get to the table.

The good news is you do not have to figure it out on your own.

Call Petriello Law at 973-890-7262 and we will walk you through it.

New Jersey real estate contracts include a built-in protection many buyers and sellers don’t fully understand.

After a contract is signed, there is a three-business-day attorney review period during which either party’s attorney may propose changes or disapprove the agreement.

Until attorney review concludes, the contract is not binding — making it one of the most significant safeguards in a New Jersey transaction.

Understanding how Attorney Review works can change how you approach your next deal.

Save this before your next deal. Questions? Call us at 973-890-7262.

Selling before buying gives you certainty and makes your offer more competitive. Buying and selling at the same time keeps everything moving, but it increases the stress if either deal hits a delay.
