Beginning January 1, 2011 Allendale will be collecting curbside recyclable items commingled. Residents no longer need to separate recyclables as in the past. This is a major change to the recycling program.   The goal of the new program is to reduce number of collections days from three to two saving manpower, faster pickup and less dumping of the trucks also saving manpower and the town is also increasing the types of plastics recycled which should reduce the amount of garbage pickup.   This is the first in a series of cost reduction and revenue generating aspects the public works department is looking at. Details of the new Recycle Program are as follows:      Curbside Collection of recycling will now be on Mondays and Tuesdays only. Please check the schedule for your street to determ...

Alpine New Jersey NJ  in 2009 ranked as America's most expensive zip codes, towns or cities to live in with a median home price of over $4 million. The town of Alpine New Jersey NJ is small and in 2008, there were only 1,275 registered voters. The k-8 school system only had 134 students in 2005-2006. The children attend Tenafly High School once they get older. One of the upscale neighborhoods in Alpine is Rio Vista. Which is also home to Devil's Tower. The tower was originally built by sugar baron Manuel Rionda so his wife can see NY from the New Jersey side of the Hudson River.  The legend has it that his wife saw him with another woman and she committed suicide by jumping from the tower. I have seen that tower and it really does look evil. It is very scary at night. Many of the curre...

Alpine, Bergen County New Jersey quarterly sales report shows zero NJMLS sales in the first quarter. Alpine being a small town of luxury homes, it is unusual but not dreadfully. Alpine sales volume peaked in the 1st quarter of 2006. Last recorded median sale price was approx. three million dollars. The second quarter should show a pickup in sales. There are homes for sale up to the Fifty million dollar plus range. Needless to say small interluded in sales closing is normal.  The market has slowed in Alpine as in other areas of the county. However, some early figures throughout Bergen County are showing a pickup in buying.   View Alpine new homes for sale View All Alpine Real Estate for sale on NJMLS in one click!

GMAC mortgage company is shutting down its retail operations, offices, loan officers et al. In our office we have a GMAC representative who was given the news today. He will have a space till October and then they are closed. I believe they have been in business since 1982 and were in the top 10 of mortgage originators. One by one the market is dissolving the players who can't continue to fund in a profitable manner. This is trying times, the worst since the great depression. Although, I believe we will turn the corner after the election the field is full of broken dreams. Less players and a need for the government to assist in new good loans. The past is the past, those loans are clearing the books with record foreclosures. In many parts of the country foreclosures comprise over 40-45%...
