Commuter Information:
The Summit Train Station is located at 40 Union Place.  This station is served by both the Morristown Line and the Gladstone Branch.  It serves as a transfer station for those coming from Gladstone and want to go to New York, since most trains from Gladstone only go to Hoboken.  It also serves as the originating point for numerous trains to both Hoboken and Penn Station in Midtown Manhattan.  This means the first seat on the train for most Summit commuters.  Service begins at 4:56 AM and ends at 2:29 AM.  Holiday and weekend service runs from 5:27 AM to 2:27 AM.  Due to the availability of trains and potential destinations, it draws commuters from not just Summit but many surrounding towns.

A municipal permit sticker is required for residents to park in the long term garages/parking lots.  The cost is $10 or $5 for a senior 62 years of age or older.  Permits may be obtained from either the City Clerk’s Office (908) 273-6400 or the Summit Permit Center (908) 522-0357.  You can now also pay online at Summit's website.  Residents must supply vehicle registration with a Summit address.  If the car is leased, registration and insurance card are required.  Summit residents are able to park in 4 long-term parking garages/lots:Broad Street Garage, Chestnut Lot, Elm Street Lot, and Sampson Lot.  Resident commuters can also park in the Broad Street East Lot where there are reserved spaces.  Look for green and white signs  Residents with a permit can either park for $3.75 a day all day from 6:00 AM to 6:00 PM Monday thru Friday or purchase an annual pre-paid hangtag for $810.  A resident must have a municipal permit sticker in order to purchase pre-paid parking from the Summit Permit Center.  The hangtag must be displayed from the rearview mirror.  Overnight parkers with valid permits can enter the garages/lots starting at 3:00 PM.  If you need to leave the garage/lot, there is no need to pay again when reentering if you leave the day’s receipt on the car’s dash board.  The Broad Street East Lot (adjacent to the Broad Street Parking Garage) is available to residents and non-residents for long-term parking.  Non-residents must pay $9 a day to park.  This lot does not require a permit.  No overnight parking is permitted in this lot.  For valet service and non-resident pre-paid hangtags for this lot contact Park Plus Valet (347) 273-1333.

Real Estate Tips
Agency >Beneficial Brokers

Homebuyers who use the Internet to start their home search may be lured by the promises of realty companies advertising "one-stop shopping" guaranteed to meet all your housing needs. But before you sign up with an online company, consider the benefits of meeting personally with a real estate agent or broker who can represent your best interests in the transaction.

A full service real estate broker will be informed about the current trends in your local market. He or she will personally show you properties that satisfy your unique requirements. When you want to discuss your options for a home mortgage loan, your broker will refer you to a reputable mortgage professional who can help you choose a loan that meets your specific needs. Your broker will have a working relationship with home inspectors and homeowner's insurance companies whose professional integrity they can vouch for. Online "one-stop" companies profit from handling all aspects of a transaction, but the homebuyer may not receive adequate personal attention or get the best deal. It is to your advantage to engage the services of a real estate agent or broker, because their sole motive is to protect and guide you during the complex process of buying property.
