Looking in Sayreville? There is a large project, called Riverton, moving forward on a 418 acre, 2.5 billion development in Sayreville of 5 million square feet in size. It will be the largest mixed-use project in New Jersey history. No date set yet for completion. The project compares to an 86 acre, 1 billion mixed-use development in Alpharetta, Georgia per the builder.

The plan is to create a great walkable place where people can connect to one another. There has been nothing like this in the Northeast yet. It is a great location for this project which is within proximity of two miles of waterfront and major highways. It will be designed to suit the community. It will encourage guests and residents to visit Riverton not only for retail shopping, but will also have food and beverage establishments. The property will also feature single family property, a movie theater, hotel, conference center and medical office building.

There will be a host of events planned for the public once the project is completed. Riverton is expected to create thousands of jobs. Best wishes for success!

When inventory is low, home prices tend to rise. Trying to buy a home in this type of market can make the already complex process of buying a home even more overwhelming. Following are some tips to keep in mind when buying:

Choose and Stay with Your Budget: Once you have been pre-approved from a lender, and take into account additional costs (taxes, utilities and insurance), come up with a final budget you can comfortably afford. Because listings are scarce, bidding wars can escalate the buying price so stick with your budget and be prepared to walk away if the price is driven over your budget.

Know Preferred Neighborhood and Home Wants vs. Needs: When inventory is low, you may need to compromise. Certain perks like stainless steel appliances can be added after a purchase; however, if you are looking for a particular school district or are looking for a large backyard, don't forget to think about those points before choosing a home.

Quick Decisions: Homes will not be on the market for very long when there is a seller's market. If a house that falls into your budget and meets your needs comes along, don't hesitate! Make that offer fast!

Do Be a Competitive Bidder with Few Contingencies: Many try to bid low to start, but in a seller's market it is better to put your best foot forward coming as close to your best and highest offer as possible.This will increase your chances of getting the home you want. There are bidding situations when the highest offer is the attractive but the seller will choose the offer with the least amount of contingencies. Being flexible (i.e. move in date) can make your bid the winning bid over someone who actually has offered more but is inflexible.

Work with one agent: The biggest mistake buyers make is working with several different agents. Buying a home requires working with someone you trust, and you know will advocate in your best interest - not just someone looking for a commission. Develop a strong relationship with one agent, and you will have one of the most important tools necessary to help you navigate your home buying needs!

I've lived the past 25 years in Monmouth County. Now that I'm starting a new chapter, I made the decision to move closer to my job which is located in Sayreville. I have to say that decision was not easy. All of my memories of my daughter growing up, friendships made, and family are in Freehold and Howell. But, it is time to claim my stake somewhere new and Sayreville is the perfect place to be.

A lovely town with older cape style homes, Sayreville runs side by side with Parlin and sits between South Amboy, East Brunswick and Old Bridge, which also makes it close to the shopping areas of your choice. Many of the residents in Sayreville have been here for generations and it is the perfect combination of older, quaint neighborhoods blending easily and seamlessly with newer neighborhoods.

Solid schools, beautiful parks, excellent proximity to New York City and affordable homes makes Sayreville a town to consider whether you are a first time home buyer, young family, or couple looking to downsize. When it comes to towns to visit and consider put Sayreville at the top of your list!

You can enjoy free music during the summer. Bring your lawn chairs, every Wednesday from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m., rain or shine. If there is inclement weather then the concerts will be held at the South Amboy Middle/High School Auditorium. Shuttle service will be available during inclement weather. This is a great way to relax and spend some time outdoors with your family! Click the Music in the Park link below for the schedule of bands.

Save the date, September 18, 2016, for Sayreville Day! Come out and meet your local organizations, have fun, and enjoy the food carts and entertainment. Loads of fun for the whole family!

In my experience, low interest rates have really helped with keeping the buyer pool stimulated over the past few years. If interest rates increase, like with any change in the real estate market, it could have a negative effect on the buyer pool until those rates become the new norm. I also believe that where there is a need to purchase, an increased rate will not prevent those from moving forward.
