Now that I have a couple days experience with this board I realized I didn't submit the standard info:
*Read this list so you are aware of what should be included if you are moving from out of area and coming to New Jersey.
Where are you coming from? Brooklyn
Why are you moving? Better living and schooling environment for the kid(s) (Working on this
)

Will you buy or rent? Buy
What is your budget ? Up to $800K
What kind of place are you looking for ? Well maintained or renovated Center Hall colonial or Contemporary.
Will anyone (spouse, children, pets) be moving with you ? Just us 2
Do you need/want good public schools? Yes, yes. Need and want
Briefly describe the kind of neighborhood you'd like to live in
(examples: families with young children, young, mature, artsy, diverse, safe, close-knit, block parties, etc)
All the examples above. Close-knit is not that important. Just want some nice neighbors
List three things that are important to you in order of importance.(examples: nightlife, outdoor activities, rural/urban, safety, downtown area, charming, new construction, proximity to XYZ, family oriented, easy parking, short commute, etc)
Schools
Walkable to the train
Outdoor activities (parks, festivals, etc)
Downtown area (restaurants, shopping, cafes, wine bars)
Hope that clarifies. Thanks.
