General education, not legal advice. Deadlines computed from the dates you entered using standard NJ rules (35-day answer, adjournment practice, 10-day redemption) — your own court documents control your actual dates. Confirm with a licensed NJ attorney or a HUD-approved counselor. No promises about the outcome of any case.

Independent, and paid by nobody

We take no referral fees, no commissions, and no advertising money from anything on this site. Every cash buyer, nonprofit and government program listed is independently owned and operated with no connection to us. The one exception is Corcoran Sawyer Smith x Builders Resource Center, a brokerage the people behind this guide have an ownership interest in, which is labeled as a related business everywhere it appears so you can weigh it accordingly.
