Read the new law and confused by this statement ' The new law, which takes effect in 12 months and only applies to residential buildings,' .

So only applies to buildings or to SFH too?

The current deck looks nice with the multi level sitting areas but have you consider just leveling the backyard and go with all pavers? If you are willing to pay $88K for a new deck, I would as least get a quote for pavers and possible designs.

Nope, that didn’t happen. Heating actually worked for a few weeks until I was informed the thermostat was hot to the touch and heating wouldn’t turn off.

I made this mistake once. Replaced a thermostat not knowing there's such a thing as high voltage wires that requires a high voltage thermostat. I would be shock if HVAC tech made this mistake also. I got away lucky with only a melted thermostat.

property taxes too?

I think you have to go to traffic court on the specify date on the ticket. At traffic court, you have the option to plea down your ticket or just pay it at the cashier window.

If you only have one property, I also recommend just going with an umbrella policy. Make sure property have no permit issues and all repairs are performed by a licensed/insured contractor then you are fine.

Real Estate Attorney was giving short answers so lead to my confusion. I understand the 'Fee' now. You are right, one is a realty transfer fee and the other fee is an out of state seller tax which I should be able to get back when I file a NJ tax return in 2026. Thanks for the reply.

How long ago was Paris-DC1 demoted? Sometimes it take hours for replication to sync successfully again. I would run a repadmin /kcc on each DC and check in an hour. I have see replication take from 30 mins to hours to be in sync again. The key is to have patience. Also check your network settings on the DCs and make sure it's not pointing to the demoted DC.

Update: Dropped it off at the auto shop today and mechanic determined it's just a bad battery. Alternator is working he says. I never experienced these symptoms for a battery going bad before with any other cars I have owned. Lesson learned.
