Legality of what is considered a “bedroom” in Roselle Park, NJ
***Roselle Park, NJ*** (not Newark)
In process of buying single family house as investment
House has 3 floors. Third floor is like an attic.
My Inquiry here is about the third floor
There are 2 small rooms on the floor, aside from the full bath
one room has a regular size window, the other has small window which doesn’t qualify as egress
Both rooms **don’t** have built in closets
They count the house as a total of 5 legal bedrooms on the mls
My concern is that this house might be a legal 3 bedroom, or a 4 bedroom, at best
Tax assessor office has it as 5 bedroom,
But still uncomfortable
if you know the right answer in terms of legality of room in this specific town, I’ll really appreciate your reply
