About Verona's The Claridge

When you see a listing for the Claridge Houses in Verona, New Jersey on the internet or an agent emails you Claridge House units for sale or even when you meet the agent at one of the Claridge Houses in Verona you have access to the "financial information", i.e., total assessment (including land and building assessment), the taxes and the tax rate. Now one would assume that the total assessment, taxes and tax rate are correct and current and in some cases that may be but in some cases (mostly on older listings or Claridge units that have been on the market for a long time) the total assessment, tax rate and taxes are incorrect. The assessments are higher than they currently are and the tax rate shows 9.9. In speaking with Verona's Tax Assessor's Office today, I was informed that the Claridge Houses have been reassessed and the current tax rate lowered to 2.416.

With the NEW ASSESSMENT AND NEW LOWER TAX RATE, the impact on one of the Claridge House II units is significant:

The difference in taxes on this Claridge House Unit was $2,544 which results in a SAVINGS of $636 a quarter and $212 monthly!

Unfortunately, not every real estate website or multiple listing service has updated their tax records nor may every real estate agent beaware of this signficant new assessement and new tax rate at the Claridge Houses in Verona, so make sure you look to see if the tax data is from 2010 and that the tax rate is 2.416 or better yet, contact Essex County Real Estate Agent, Gina Chirico for real estate information on The Claridge Houses in Verona.

Don't believe everything you read! The New Assessment, New Tax Rate and New Property Taxes at The Claridge Houses in Verona do and will have an impact on you!

I planned on taking the day off and enjoying Mother's Day with my family and I did just that BUT before we went to celebrate at dinner, I wrote up an offer on a one bedroom unit I showed at the Claridge House II in Verona yesterday.

On Thursday morning I received a telephone call from someone who read my ActiveRain posts on the Claridge Houses in Verona. She was quite familiar with The Claridge Houses and yesterday we headed over to the Claridge House I and the Claridge House II and saw some units and today we wrote up an offer! I telephoned the listing agent and left a message that I was putting an offer together but I haven't heard from him. I'm sure he was enjoying time with his family and celebrating Mother's Day and I should hear from him in the morning hopefully.

I am hoping that soon I'll be in the right-hand corner of your ActiveRain homepage sharing my ActiveRain success story with you. You never know where any new lead will take you but never underestimate the power of ActiveRain!

Are you are thinking about movin' on up to The Claridge Houses in Verona New Jersey? When I say movin' on up to The Claridge Houses, I'm not just talking about hi-rise luxurious living but I truly mean movin' on up (as in moving uphill) because the Claridge Houses sit atop one of the highest elevations in the State of New Jersey. Surrounding by 13 wooded acres, The Claridge Houses offer tranquility and privacy in a secure, luxurious living environment with breathtaking, unique balcony views.

I hope everyone enjoyed their Mother's Day and that you didn't work too hard but then again writing up an offer is time well spent even if it's on Mother's Day!
