Maplewood/South Orange's real estate took off years after and I personally think a similar effect will take place however not on the same scale because of the smaller lot sizes, etc.Prism Capital purchased the old GE building and has made heavy investment into the property.

Here you are permitted to request vacancy at Close if you plan to make it your primary residence or move a member of your "immediate" family into the property.When the property is requested vacant, a Notice to Vacate is filed with the Rentalsman and served on the tenant giving them effectively 30 - 90 days to vacate (depending on the lease and whether they are a "long term tenant").

Is your main goal to find an effective marketing person at a good price or to pay your son rather than give him money to help him out while unemployed?

Again, check with your legal counsel on this option too.

Or is having a signed receipt effective (showing the seller received the EMD)?  

Anything taking longer than that to pay for itself I'll analyze further to consider other ways it'll effect the property or my equity position.

It had a great effect of my life and I'm sure it can do the same for you.

We see through hype quickly, just FYI.We love creative ideas that are ethical, prudent, legal and that can be duplicated in reality.You mentioned too that you have a law degree, that's great, but are you an attorney, that is the implication when someone on an RE site assumes that, here, we see a law degree as being of counsel.

It hasn't seemed to effect house prices yet but buyers seem to be a little more cautious.

If I am and my offer is considered ridiculously low,how will this effect my credibility in the sight of the agent and my potential buyers?
