The point is, that the walls, floors, kitchen, windows, the whole structure (but not the contents) MUST BE INSURED in order to get a loan - the building insurance covers that. Lender requires a proof of that. You don't have to have homeowner's insurance covering your personal shit - but the condo itself must be insured to close. You are REALLY dense.

Yeah, sure. The bank lent you money, you little shit, without requiring insurance to cover their ass in case your (their) condo burns down or gets flooded or collapses. Yeah, that's the ticket.

He's right. If you live in a condo/townhouse (not sure about co-ops), you don't have to get homeowners insurance. They suggest but not require something that's kind of equivalent to renter's equipment. It covers the contents of the unit. Any problems with the mechanicals should be covered under the building.

They said the building insurance was good enough for them. what can i tell you. its the truth. concidering my place didn't require any benifits of insurance that year... i saved money and nothing happened. worked out well in the end.

suuuuure it didn't. and even pretending that it didn't, the person who allegedly "lived for a year" before they realized they didn't have homeowners' insurance is calling somebody else 'shit for brains'? that's pretty funny.

nope, not being a douche at all. during negotiations it normal that one party start high the other party starts low. somewhere in between an agreement is reached.
so keep your vinegar and water comments to yourself. Quote:

thats true murican, its legal if indented, but it doesnt seem that at least the western facing windows are by much, and nevertheless, it would suck to face another brick wall whether it be legal or not.

It is. As, apparently, is the reverse- building in slack space setback from the existing structure's windows. Which is why I now have what looks like a garbage chute outside my bathroom window.

If the windows are indented from the surface of the building, so that there is allowable minimum space between the buildings, it may be legal.

the other fun thing about the montgomery greene is that the southern and western facing windows are pretty much illegal since you cant make windows facing out on another lot. If another building in 5-10 years were built adjacent to the mont. greene and was an equal sized or larger building, it would cover every window on the southern and/or western side, detroying all those views and depreciating the apts values tremendously. As an architect, I know that we arent allowed to build anything like that and I wonder infact how it got approved.

Wow. Joe, I feel so bad for you. No one should have to go through that situation, and it must have been even worse since it was 2 days after you closed.
If it was a "total loss", will your unit insurance or the condo master insurance cover the loss?

To respond to the questions.
(1) The damage was characterized as a 'Total Loss' by the insurance company. ALthough the pictures may not do justice, the ceilings, walls floors were all damaged. I will sell you the condo without personal warranty for $635,000. Let me know. (2) This really isn't a home warranty claim, but a claim against the Condo Association for failure of a common element of the building, the 6th floor roof drainage system.

If you are not happy can't you just invoke your warranty?
http://www.state.nj.us/dca/codes/newhome_warranty/warplans.shtml I don't know how it works but your attorney should be able to help you through the process.

Montgomery Greene, you've been livin' hell to me
You've screwed me since August 13 I've seen 'em come and go and I've seen them die And long ago I stopped askin' why Montgomery Greene, I hate every inch of you. You've cut me and have scarred me through and through. And I'll walk out a wiser weaker man; Mr Ciesmelewski why can't you understand. Montgomery Greene, what good do you think you do? Do you think I'll be different when you're through? You bent my heart and mind and you may my soul, And your drywall turns my blood a little cold. Montgomery Greene, may you rot and burn in hell. May your walls fall and may I live to tell. May all the world forget you ever stood. And may all the world regret you did no good. Montgomery Greene, you've been livin' hell to me.

I see a guy manning the desk in the lobby everyday when I walk by. For his sake I hope someone is living there.

Whatever happened to this building? I drove pass the other evening and people are still not living there.
Has it gone bankrupt because of all the luxury buildings which are in better locations and offer more amenities - in addition to the fact it's so late that buyers are walking away (with their deposits - I hope)? Plus I read that Lisbon's and the South rear carpark are to be developed into a huge 66 unit condo.

yes of course, the RE market in jc has been flat since mid last year. You might as well put the money under the mattress instead of buying this as investment property right now. but it's a good place to live if you happen to work by the waterfront and just want to become a home owner. anyone know the maintaince fee, property tax and whether there are abatement or not?

Not to nitpick but, if it's "worth what they're asking in a few years" wouldn't that mean the value of the investment stays flat?

i watched this building go up every day on the way home, dont know what date they gave the buyers but thought they made good progress? its' almost done.
And in term of construction, seems to be solid with concrete frame and high ceilings etc. Dont understand why all the complains, looks like a well built highrise. if you think this is crappy construction, you seriously need to walk around jc more.... anyway price is another story altogeher, you are basically paying to live next to the waterfront financial district which will continue to grow, maybe it will worth what they are asking in a few years? who knows....
