Get as much info as you can, so it's easier for you to make that "what do I want to do in real estate" question easier to answer.

He sure is - I'll pass your info onto him if you want to PM me.THX

Any info on capital gains tax and what that looks like in NJ?

@Robert Yousef  Tax foreclosures do not show up on the MLS, have them check their county court house/auditor's office to find out where to find info on those.  

Info on you, who you are what you do, why you are different (better) than your competitors.If you never read anything these gurus said, how would YOU really do it?

I just closed and was given a check in the amount of both tenants deposits.Right away you want to call and transfer any utilities that the previous owner was paying, as well as call and set up a time to introduce yourself to them, as well as lay out clear guidelines and expectations as to what to expect with you as the new owner, ie. where and when to send payment, contact info and info on what to do if there are any issues that need to be addressed.I just closed on a new duplex and acquired tenants, i called right away and started service for water and garbage for the tenants, as well as met with them in person, I showed up with a copy of their current lease agreement for them to have as a refresher, a basic rental application for them to fill out to make sure i had the most current information about employment, tenants, contact info, as well as had them make a list of concerns and things that need repair. 

If the agency's info is not available, what would be a best next step? 

PM for info. :)

Once upon a time when we had saved up  a down payment for a car in cash the finance guy had a whole procedure for taking the cash, sticking it in an envelope, writing info on it, then turning it in to someone. 

Finally, I'll add that I've had clients cost themselves thousands of dollars and several weeks of valuable time by communicating directly with the other party's agent and sharing info that should have been discussed with me first.I'm a firm believer that one great agent (per market area or specialty area such as residential vs commercial) is all you'll ever need to buy and sell real estate.
