Buyer Beware
Statutes: § 46:3C-10(c)
The state of New Jersey is considered a “Buyer Beware” state, which means neither the seller nor their agent is legally required to disclose any defects on the property and that the buyer alone is responsible for discovering any defects or issues with the property.
