If you are interested in other communities please    contact us,  and we will be happy to obtain the information for you and send it to you. Mountainside is mixed with old world charm.

Sell my Mountainside home!  New Jersey Monthly magazine ranked Mountainside as its 16th best place to live in its 2008 rankings of the "Best Places To Live" in New Jersey, as well as eighth in the 2010 list. If you want to get in on the summer market, here are some things you need to know before you list your home:   Make repairs before you list your home!

Real Estate Professionals judge the strength of a real estate market based upon the Months of Supply in the area. This number tells you how many months it would take for all the current homes for sale on the market to sell, based upon the rate of sales in the past. A Months of Supply of 5 months is considered average - buyers and sellers are about equal in the area and homes are being bought at about the same rate that they are being put on the market. A Months of Supply of less than 5 months is what real estate professionals often call a "seller's market." This means that there are more buyers than sellers in the area and homes are selling quicker than they are being put on the market. Typically, this increases prices. A Months of Supply of greater than 5 months is what real estate pro...

Mountainside, NJ, is a beautiful town in Western Union County, NJ, and is home to almost 6700 people. New Jersey Monthly magazine ranked Mountainside as its 8th best place to live in NJ in 2010 and it's 16th best place to live in its 2008 rankings. In comparing the real estate market for the last six February's, we discovered that the slow market that Mountainside has experienced for the past two years appears to be over! Great news if you're planning to sell your home! For instance, there were more active listings in Mountainside this past February than there were for the two years prior: More good news can be found when we examine the average days on market - calculated from the time of listing to the time a contract was signed. Finally those years of waiting 5 or 6 months for a house...

    A man and his wife were awakened at 3:00 am by a loud poundingon the door. The man gets up and  goes to the door where a drunken stranger,standing in the pouring rain, is asking for a push. "Not a chance," says the husband, "it is 3:00 in the morning!" He slams the door and returns to bed. "Who was that?" asked his wife. "Just some drunk guy asking for a push," he answers. "Did you help him?"  she asks. "No, I did not, it is 3:00 in the morning and it is pouring rain out  there!" "Well, you have a short memory," says his wife. "Can't you remember about three months ago when we broke down, and those two guys helped us? .I think you should  help him, and you should be ashamed of yourself!" God loves drunk people too. The man does as he is told, gets dressed, and goes out intothe pound...
