Two communities full of charm and amenities
Chatham, a colonial settlement named for William Pitt, the Earl of Chatham, was divided into Chatham Borough and Chatham Township in the 1890s. Although they remain separate municipalities, The Chathams share many common resources including the newly expanded library and highly ranked school system. Yet each has its own character. Chatham Borough features a charming downtown with many award-winning restaurants, while Chatham Township retains plentiful open space. The Chathams offer an easy commute to Manhattan by rail and bus and excellent access to corporate New Jersey. Chatham was recently named as one of the top 10 places to live by Money Magazine. The Borough ranked #24 and the Township ranked #1 in NJ Monthly's - Top 100 Places to Live

First Time Buyers >A Matter of Timing
Buying real estate can sometimes involve tricky timing. For example, you may have found the perfect house and are thinking about making an offer, but are feeling pressured to make a decision just when you want time to consider the matter. The agent tells you that another party is thinking about making an offer, so you shouldn't hesitate if you really want the house. What should you do? Trust your agent!
It is natural to feel some pressure from even the most easy-going real estate agent--and some uncertainty about making an offer. If you really like a house, there is always the possibility that someone else will share your enthusiasm for it. Whether your local market is active or sluggish, it is sensible to assume that another offer is likely to come in. Perhaps you can afford to "sleep on it", but moving as quickly as possible will minimize the possibility that the house will go to another buyer.
