With the rise of housing costs in New Jersey, many are foregoing traditional home buying and are choosing life in a common interest association instead.  That is, the percentage of New Jerseyans living in condominium and cooperative associations has skyrocketed over the past two (2) decades. 

Urban sprawl has made New Jersey Community Association Law exceedingly important in recent years. This is evident in the ever-increasing number of new developments seen everyday.  Despite their growing importance, most boards do not fully understand their responsibilities.  Although acting as a “quasi-government” many board members do not have a complete understanding of their legal duties and obligations to either the State of New Jersey or to the home owners they represent.
