New Jersey State FAQs

Is New Jersey a judicial or non-judicial state?

Judicial

In a judicial foreclosure state, the lender must go through the court system in order to foreclose on a property. This process can be longer and more expensive for the lender compared to a non-judicial foreclosure.

As a real estate investor, it is important to understand the differences between judicial and non-judicial states because it can affect the amount of time and money it takes to foreclose on a property. It can also impact the availability of properties that are being foreclosed on and the process of purchasing those properties.

What is the process of closing on a property in New Jersey?

Attorneys handle closings in northern New Jersey, and title agents customarily handle them elsewhere. Conveyance is by bargain-and-sale deed with covenants against grantors’ acts (equivalent to a special warranty deed). Mortgages are the most common security instruments though deeds of trust are authorized. Foreclosures require judicial action which take 6-9 months if they’re uncontested. New Jerseyites use ALTA owner’s and lender’s policies. Both buyer and seller pay the escrow and closing costs. The buyer pays the title insurance fees, and the seller pays the transfer tax. Property taxes are payable quarterly on the first of April, July, October, and January.

In New Jersey, does a property management company require a real estate broker's license?

YES. Key components of property management (renting, leasing and collecting rent) are considered real estate activities under existing New Jersey real estate licensing laws. If a property manager is going to rent, list, collect rents, procure prospects or negotiate, assist, or offer to perform any of those acts, he or she will need a broker's license. A salesperson working under a broker may engage in such activities.

Are there any exceptions to the requirement that a property manager have a broker's license in New Jersey?

There are only limited exceptions to the requirement. For example, a bona-fide property owner is exempt as to their own property. For more information about these and other New Jersey property management requirements and exceptions, please contact the New Jersey Real Estate Commission. Before hiring a property manager to manage your New Jersey rental property, you should always check that he or she is licensed appropriately. You can check the license status of New Jersey property managers at the Commission's Real Estate Licensee Search.
