Schlosser Real Estate Newsletter

As an update to my last newsletter, I can tell you that the New Jersey state legislature has passed an amendment to the requirements of the Bulk Sales Law which is awaiting signature from the Governor as I write this update. When signed, it will exempt those residential properties which are owned by individual owners and will be retroactive to 2007, relieving from jeopardy all individuals who have sold since that date. However, if your property is held in the name of a corporation, including LLC's, you will not be exempt.

I'm sure everyone is aware we have had a value correction in all locations at the shore. However, those properties in key locations and in towns with lower taxes have fallen less than others. That being said, buyers are buying and sales are good. I think buyers are being attracted by several things such as super low interest rates, lower prices, and even the idea that a tangible vacation home is a more desirable investment than stocks, bonds, or a non-existent interest rate on their money. After all, a shore house can be enjoyed and used for years.

We are again facing a deadline for an extension of the federally funded flood insurance program. It will expire on September 30. You will be receiving this newsletter afterwards and will know the outcome. Nevertheless, it is important to always urge your elected representatives to support the program and to thank them when they do. If this extension is not completed thousands of closings of properties in areas requiring flood insurance and being financed through federally backed funding will not occur until it is.

We actually had a terrific year in sales last year and are experiencing more of the same this year. However, it is not by chance we are doing so well. A great marketing plan and a great attitude is responsible for bringing our listings to the closing table more often. If you'd like to hear about it in more detail please contact me anytime.

3 Tbsp mayonnaise
1 Tbsp whole-grain mustard
1/4 cup cornichons, chopped, plus 1 Tbsp brine Black pepper
1 lb cooked, peeled and deveined large shrimp, coarsely chopped
2 tsp chopped fresh tarragon
4 hot dog buns
4 pieces romaine or green-leaf lettuce
Potato chips, for serving

Recipe Preparation
In a large bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, mustard, brine and 1/4 tsp pepper. Add the shrimp, cornichons and tarragon and toss to combine. Line the buns with the lettuce and top with the shrimp mixture. Serve with potato chips, if desired.
