NJ Multifamily-Broker says 2 family Tax records show 3 family
Hello,
I'm looking at a property in NJ and the broker is telling me it's a 2 family
but I check the tax records thru the city and they have it listed as a 3 family.
I'm assuming the city and tax records are correct.
I asked if there is a green card (5 year state inspection) and the broker said that is only applicable to 3 family+ properties.
If I buy the property and the state has not been inspecting the property, what is my responsibility?
I need to do the right thing but I also know it can be opening a can of worms.
Any thoughts?
