Hello,I'm looking at a property in NJ and the broker is telling me it's a 2 familybut 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?
