Home Inspection New Jersey

3 Family home with tenants, I know as of 2005 there needs to be one mounted in each kitchen, but I've also heard that there needs to be one in the staircase. Is this true? What if there are 2 staircases?

Thank you.

then you also need one in each staircase also, its not that much to buy and its worth it, not getting a fine, and helps preventing major catastrophes. if you have more questions, you should find a local fire extinguisher distributor, they know everything, and they most likely will tell you the truth and not try to sell you more than you need

homeinspections-newjersey.com Home inspection NJ cost - ask the home inspector you're considering straight up what the inspection will cost ...

yesterday i bought a car off a dealer and he gave me a temporary plate but then when i brought it home i realised they had removed the inspection sticker.
i then called and he told me that your allowed to drive the car with no sticker as long as it has the temporary plate on the back... then once i receive the title and registration etc.. i should go get it inspected which is in 2 weeks...
so can i drive the car with a temporary plate and no inspection sticker? i live in the state of New Jersey.
Thanks!

Call you local police or DMV and ask them - this just doesn't sound right.
In the state where I live, the type of plate doesn't matter - an uninspected vehicle is going to get a citation regardless.

This story scared the **** out of me when I first heard it from a friend, and I immediately Googled it to find out if anyone could validate it for me. As it turned out, a number of people have heard of, live by, or have actually visited this scary-a' place in Marlboro, NJ, but no authentic documentation of the accompanying legend exists. Read the story, in my own words, below and tell me if you are familiar with it. (Side note: I am writing this on a black coffee jag at 4:44 am and I look over my shoulder about every 2 seconds to make sure I'm not being watched. I scare easily. Humor me.)

The local legend has it that sometime in the early 1950s, a farmer known only as "Mr. Allen" owned and operated a slaughterhouse on property that was wrested from him by the state government, who turned it into a mental hospital. Mr. Allen had not sold the state his land, and was essentially being robbed by the government when his slaughterhouse was razed. He was allowed to keep his home, but was rendered jobless and took to wandering the hospital grounds at night for no apparent reason, muttering to himself and giving orderlies the evil eye. Understandably, the hospital staff got freaked out by his stalkerish behavior, so they had him committed. Shortly after his institutionalization, Mr. Allen escaped custody and was never seen or heard from again.

Shortly after his disappearance, members of the hospital staff began hearing mysterious noises that sounded strangely like animal cries from the decrepit remains of the main slaughterhouse building. The noises were heard mainly at night, and were LOUD - so loud that they started giving inpatients sh*t fits and the police were summoned. The morning after a police officer made an inspection of the premises, his headless body was found suspended from a meathook in the slaughterhouse freezer; on the wall was a cryptic threat written in the dead man's blood: "tonight all will die."

The weirdest part of the story is that nothing happened after that. The next night passed with no unusual occurrences, and after a while everyone in Marlboro pretty much forgot Mr. Allen had ever existed.

Today, however, many adventure trippers claim to have seen fresh messages written in animal blood on the walls of the slaughterhouse, and at least two people claim to have seen the ghost of Mr. Allen watching them from the top-story window. All collected accounts match seamlessly, but local authorities dismiss the messages as vandalism by common pranksters and insist that any sightings of Mr. Allen were imagined.

It sounds like there might have been a grain of truth in there somewhere, but it's all been greatly exaggerated and embroidered over the years - as many ghost stories are, from constant re-telling. Having checked out a few websites with photos from the Marlboro Slaughterhouse on them, all I can say is that it looks like the kind of place which, even if it's not haunted, probably should be!

I bought my home (condo) seven years ago and it is now about twenty years old, which is fairly new. And i had to replace a six foot piece of corroded gas line because of dripping water from a hot water line that was never properly secured. they charge me $950.00 to replace the gas line and still have to replace the water lines that have corroded. is the condo development at fault since the water pipes were never properly sealed? all these pipes were inside the ceiling so any inspection that i did would not have revealed this problem. i live in brick town new jersey. any advise welcomed.

I'm not an expert or anything but you have lived there now for 7 years and I don't think you would actually be able to talk the condo development into paying for those repairs for you. They will find some excuse to not pay. Is there anything about that in your homeowners insurance? Maybe have an inspector look at the pipes in other peoples' condos and see if they are like yours??

I live in New Jersey and I was parked in my own driveway at my house a private residence. When I went out to my car in the morning there were 2 tickets on my car for unregistered vehicle and expired inspection. The car was securley in my driveway no ordinance violations and I was never pulled over I found out about the tickets when I woke up in the morning. My question is does a cop have the right to enter private property (my home) and write tickets for non moving violations. I understand if I was on public property he could but this was my house in my driveway theres nothing public about it. The cop didn't even issue the tickets under the right name the cars registered under my brothers name I guess thats the name he got when he looked it up. Now I have 2 tickets in my brothers name that have to be paid... my main question is can a cop enter private property to write non ordinance violation tickets... if I was parked on my grass which is against the town rules he could write it.. but these are non moving violations and it is to my understanding the only time a cop can enter private property is when he/she has resonable belief that a felony is being commited... non moving violations are not a felony hence him entering my property from the get go was illegal or the fruit of the posioness tree as they would say. The tickets being written out to my brothers name also confirms the cop had no knowledge of who he was writing these too when he illegally entered my property. Does all of this sound correct or could there be any counterpoints that im missing?
The cop did not have me on his camera he was never behind me or infront of me he just did this randomly... and the fields story they entered the property because growing marijuana is enough for belief a potential felony is going on so they can as I stated that has no bearing here.
New Jersey law states clearly... to enter private property there must be exigent circumstances meaning a felony. Me not having my car registered or valid inspection is not a felony or exigent circumstnaces hence entering the property was illegal. Fields vs CURTILAGE the police had a resonable belief there was Exigent circumstances or a felony being committed hence growing marijuana.... my car not being inspected is a completley different circumstance.

Ordinances can and sometimes do apply to private property.

That is why tickets can and are issued for fire lanes, handicapped zones etc. If the ordinance or law allows for the offense to be committed off of a public way - your violations are "game".
