Stunning Colonial with breathtaking views of NYC Manhattan. Magnificent entrance foyer with turned staircase, custom kitchen, spacious rooms, gleaming wood floors.   All on New Jersey's Midtown Direct Train Line taking you to NYC…

Many people who live in one of the Midtown Direct towns already may know this, but that train line really helps property values.  It looks like in the future the Midtown Direct train line will enhance property values even more than it does today.

With fuel prices looking like they will be $3 or higher for the foreseeable future and more and more people trying to be eco friendly there are going to be more and more people wanting the ability to walk or bike to a train station so that they can commute into New York City or some of the Eastern New Jersey cities. 

When looking for a home in Northern New Jersey, you would be very wise to keep this trend in mind and give the train line towns extra consideration.

Chatham New Jersey has 106 homes currently for sale. That seems like a lot of homes for sale but it really is not that many. During this state wide real estate downturn Chatham and the surrounding communities have been holding up much better than New Jersey as a whole.

Morris Township Officials report that there is a small parking ticket boom happening at the Convent Station Train Station.  Morris Township police are writing 15 to 30 more parking ticket a day at the train station ever since the closure of the 128 parking space lot accross the street from the Morristown train station.
