Chatham Information

Chatham Boro

Named by Money Magazine in 2005, as “One of the Top Ten Places to Live in the United States,” Chatham is located 25 miles west of New York City, in southern Morris County. People living in Chatham tend to stay in Chatham their whole lives.  Generations of families, dating back to the town’s earliest inception, are still here and thriving.  And it is, in part, this sense of history that is bringing in new families all the time. While it is a very modern town in its amenities and services, it still possesses a lot of the old-world, village charm that brought the original families here in the first place. Chatham is actually made up of two distinct areas;
Chatham Borough and ChathamTownship, – collectively called Chatham (aka "The Chathams").

Chatham Borough consists of the 2.4 square miles surrounding the quaint downtown.  Residents in the Borough can walk to town and the train station and the homes tend towards variations of Victorian architecture, with neatly, well-manicured lawns.  

No matter in which Chatham you reside, commuting to New York City and other nearby metropolitan areas is quite convenient. Located on New Jersey Transit’s Mid-Town Direct line, trains go straight into New York’s Penn Station or Hoboken Terminal. Additionally, there are many bus routes servicing the area and Interstates 78, 287 and the Garden State Parkway are close by.
Chatham Borough’s downtown features many unique shops and restaurants, and there are many other shopping facilities nearby, such as the Short Hills and Livingston Malls.

The Chatham Regional school system is very highly ranked, with the high school recently placing 12th on New Jersey Monthly Magazine’s list of top schools in the state.
The Library of the Chathams is a great resource to residents and nearby Drew and Fairleigh Dickinson Universities offer additional classes and cultural opportunities.  Many outdoor recreational facilities are accessible to residents, such as, the Great Swamp National Wildlife Preserve, Jockey Hollow, Loantaka and the Morristown National Historical Park.

Chatham Township

Named by Money Magazine in 2005, as “One of the Top Ten Places to Live in the United States,” Chatham is located 25 miles west of New York City, in southern Morris County. People living in Chatham tend to stay in Chatham their whole lives.  Generations of families, dating back to the town’s earliest inception, are still here and thriving.  And it is, in part, this sense of history that is bringing in new families all the time. While it is a very modern town in its amenities and services, it still possesses a lot of the old-world, village charm that brought the original families here in the first place. Chatham is actually made up of two distinct areas;
Chatham Borough and ChathamTownship, – collectively called Chatham (aka "The Chathams).  

Chatham Township is 9.4 square miles and features larger lots and homes and those who settle there appreciate the woodsier, more out-of-the-way feeling the Township offers.

No matter in which Chatham you reside, commuting to New York City and other nearby metropolitan areas is quite convenient. Located on New Jersey Transit’s Mid-Town Direct line, trains go straight into New York’s Penn Station or Hoboken Terminal.

Real Estate Tips
Closing or Settlement >Net Sheet for Sellers

When you consider what price you should accept when selling your home, there are two important factors that will influence your decision. The first factor is the basic sales price. The second, and more important, is the amount you will actually receive from the proceeds at the closing.

Your real estate agent will prepare a seller's "net sheet" showing what your expenses will be. This will aid you in determining who pays what and when. It can help you to focus on the details of the sale.

A seller's expenses will include brokerage fees, real estate settlement fees, title insurance fees and special assessments. In some cases the buyer may ask you to pay some of the loan fees. Local real estate taxes will be pro-rated for you and the buyer, and you may be asked to place funds in escrow for payment of your final water bill. Subtract your mortgage balance any home improvement loans and other liens against the property that will be paid at the closing to come up with your final figures.

Your real estate agent can go over all of these factors with you when you list your home for sale and again as offers come in.
