Zombie Go!

From the Record:

‘Zombie’ houses in foreclosure can sit vacant and haunt neighbors for years

On Wilson Avenue in Wayne, a shady street of well-kept homes, the wood contemporary at No. 96 stands out. It’s been empty for years, thick moss grows on the roof and, neighbors say, water from a broken pipe flooded the interior and poured down the street several years ago.

On Berdan Avenue in Fair Lawn, a piece of black tarp hangs off the roof of a brick Cape Cod, and two dead evergreens stand sentinel at the front steps. Get close to the house and you’ll catch a whiff of mold.

On Cumberland Avenue in Teaneck, weeds grow through the patio behind a vacant brick ranch; inside, paint is peeling off the walls in sheets.

Neighbors call these homes eyesores. Real estate experts have another name: “Zombie” houses — homes in foreclosure that stay empty and neglected for years.

A decade after the housing market began its slide into the worst downturn in generations, New Jersey still has about 4,000 homes left empty because of foreclosures, according to RealtyTrac, which follows the foreclosure market nationwide. That’s about 6.2 percent of the total number in foreclosure in the state, higher than the national rate of 4.7 percent.

These abandoned homes are a headache for towns and neighbors. Under New Jersey law, the properties have to be maintained by the mortgage lender while they’re in the foreclosure process, but neighbors say the maintenance usually doesn’t go beyond mowing the lawn and making sure the doors are locked.

Visits to 10 vacant homes in middle-income North Jersey neighborhoods recently turned up places with cracked windows, fallen tree limbs, weeds growing through cracks in driveways, ragged shrubs and usually a notice glued to the front door — often from the property maintenance company hired by the lender. Many smell of mildew, signaling water damage inside. (However, most of the lawns had obviously been mowed.)

The number of zombie houses in New Jersey is higher than the national average because the state is still working through a backlog of distressed properties heading into foreclosure. According to the Mortgage Bankers Association, in the first quarter of this year, New Jersey led the nation in foreclosure starts as it continued to deal with the fallout of the housing crash. About 11.5 percent of New Jersey mortgages were either in foreclosure or late on payments in the quarter, compared with 6.5 percent nationwide.

New Jersey has been slower than the rest of the nation to get through the foreclosure crisis because here, as in about half of states, foreclosures go through the courts, which slows the process. New Jersey’s pipeline was further slowed about five years ago when state courts required the mortgage industry to answer accusations of trampling homeowners’ rights in the rush to evict.

These forlorn houses stand out among the neighboring homes, which are usually carefully maintained. Neighbors find them disheartening.

    Gonna pull the lever for Jill Stein. No double talk from her, and I like that she’s been arrested a few times. Her necronomics are Bernie-like in their complete naivete and stupidity, but the fact that she’s an honest soul weighs larger IMO.

    Also like that she’s not interested in continuing to wage perpetual war. These cop-killing nuts, and more coming down the pike just like them, are a big fallout of that policy.

    There must be a strategy for selecting Pence though I’m not sure what it is. It doesn’t matter — the spiraling violence is going to send more centrist people running from Hillary.

    She’ll either have to denounce BLM as a hate group or lose a lose a segment of law abiding people. The current admin has done a great job fomenting chaos domestically and abroad and there will be a price to pay for that at the polls.

  27. So will Plumpy’s wage inflation.

    Remember when someone farting in the Middle East raised the PPB of oil by $10. Today, a coup d’etat results in a 2% drop.

  28. Essex says:

    11. No, this is new territory. The ‘others’ had their handlers and the understanding that the GOP would support them if they stayed the course….this guy?

    He’s different….this is the first campaign won/lost on social media.

  29. grim says:

    In Clot’s defense, Bloomfield Ave is where restaurant investment capital goes to die.

    The restaurant turnover in Montclair’s downtown has got to be the highest of anywhere in NJ. Perhaps it’s because many see the area as an opportunity, and come in with a half-baked strategy and too much capital. Still, the turnover is very surprising. While many have been able to make it, successfully, the churn and burn is striking.

    In addition, many stores that were long-time fixtures were only so because they owned the buildings. There were (are) many businesses on the street that would never be successful paying market-rate rents. When these guys shutter up, they are not replaced by quaint neighborhood businesses, because quaint can’t pay the rent.

  30. The only thing that seems to pay the rent are banks, hair salons and nail shops.

  31. grim says:

    Not to mention, south of Wellmont (Seymour) seems to be a dividing line, and if not Seymour, than Grove/Lackawanna. South end of Bloomfield Ave is very rough.

    I should have bought that building on Glenridge Ave. What an idiot to not.

    I remember looking at a 6 apartment building, think it was on Gates. Would have been an idiot to buy that.

    What’s the difference? About 5 blocks?

  32. grim says:

    There are restaurants that have burned well past a million bucks and never turned a dime of profit.

  33. Essex. I don’t know if I agree with you. It’s really not about the war chest any longer either. Trump spent nothing and took down all of those formidable opponents by simply blaming all of America’s ills on illegal immigration. There will always be an audience (of morons) willing to bite on this type of cheap bait. Also, abandoning many of the traditional core Republican ideals such as the never ending focus on religious crap and abortion provided a position on the right that was ripe for the taking. Trump is also a celebrity. Much like Hillary wouldn’t have amounted to anything if she had not once been the first lady. I would agree that social media is the new 6:00 news. But I don’t think Trump has embraced it at all and Hillary simply has no common sense. Her inability to hide her pandering may end up being her undoing.

  34. You do realize that Glenridge Ave is rapidly becoming an extension of Church Street. They want it to be a pleasant walk (and restaurant row) from the Avenue down to Bay Street. It’s already happening with Salute and Fin. Then when the Blackawanna Plaza is redeveloped into a luxury mini mall complete with 8 floors of apartments above with a combined municipal/police/commercial retail complex below, Glenridge Ave is going to be the premier road for retail in Montclair.

  35. grim says:

    Nod…

    “I should have bought that building on Glenridge Ave. What an idiot to not.”

  36. grim says:

    Agree with the TrumpAnAlysis and as I have said before he is ‘different’ albiet not too different. We’ve know Donald a long time and he’s been singing the same tune. Let’s see if he has a plan here other than to simply send us a conservative agenda disguised as ‘safety and law and order’ yech.

  41. Yeah. Trump is actually further left of center than right. This too is attractive to many more centric supporters who believe in smaller government, but is completely disdained by party operatives. Shame the DNC embraced Hillary, but you knew they would. She represents the sh1tty status quo of the DEM party helping themselves and not so much their constituents unless it’s to maintain their voting base. It was outlined here months ago. Trump and Bernie were the protest vote. Hillary the status quo. Trumo doesn’t scare me at all, because I’ve witnessed his honesty and political positions for over twenty years on interviews during the Howard Stern show. He is no doubt a misogynist and an egoist, but he will build a wall like Obama closes prisons in Cuba. And he is not dumb. He is far from polished, but that seems to be what people want anyway.

  47. “Sanctions on the whole Middle East until women have equal rights.”

    For every woman who protests, there are 1000 devout Muslim women who agree with their death. Keep in mind. You are dealing with a religion that is not exactly assembling a military presence to end the caliphate.

    Good luck with that. Times, they are a changing. CHOP is overrun with women in burkas. Every time I enter the Ronald MickeyD’s lounge, there are four or five burka clad women who immediately close their flaps. Trust me…I’ve got less than zero interest in these plump arabs, even if they do make a mean falafel.

    That has to be really scaring the heck out of some liberal wack-nut somewhere. Of course if anything happens it wouldn’t be the poisonous rhetoric thrown around on both sides.

    1. Politicians in his party.
    2. The Media.

    Think about that. Clinton already has both those groups 100% supporting her and she’s still looking like a possible loser.

    Congratulations you were right on Brexit and I was wrong. I am still trying to work out parts of why. But a lot of people who liked the idea of leave are back pedaling. If it actually happens, will be interesting to watch.
    I was wrong about Trump winning the nomination. I thought he would be gone by Super Tuesday. I came in here and admitted it. If I am wrong about this election and Trump wins, I will come in here November 9th and you can say what you like.
    I have my criticisms of Clinton, but they are minor in comparison of my criticisms of Trump. They also seem to minor in regard to the hatred (and I don’t use that word lightly) that some in here, have of her. I supported John Roberts in 2008 and have been happy with O even though he wasn’t my choice.
    With Hillary, I did not like “CP Time” it was racist and stupid. I did not like the flip flop on coal to appease the WVa Miners. The email server was stupid, but not the worst thing in the world. And getting drunk with the Secret Service in South America was a mistake. That aside, I think she will make a great president.
    When it comes to the campaigns, Hillary’s machine has not really put a foot wrong. Trump is a dumpster fire. I keep hearing that Oh look how he crushed it in the primaries and how with Twitter and the Internet, he does not need to run a conventional campaign. Today we have his team having a go at Kasich. A very popular governor in a state you CANT win without.
    Last time I looked getting to 270 hasn’t changed. And as I pointed out to Joyce a few months back. Primaries are delegates and the general is the Electoral College. The GOP have had a very hard time in past few cycles, threading the needle to win both.

    For me two things need to be addressed. Mental health in the miliatry and the control of assault rifles. We are moving beyond Fort Hood, where the musl1ms are blamed. There is a very real issue here where the NRA and the 2nd amendment crowd need to step up.

Seriously?? You just brush it off!! So no I don’t think she will make a good president for that reason among others. It’s sad that those on the left with a few exceptions cannot admit that Hillary as president is just as repugnant as trump as president.

  81. Libturd supporting the Canklephate says:

    The left won’t admit it because I think they buy her bullsh1t progressiveness. I think they also believe that they are getting another 4 years of Bill Clinton much like the Right thought W would be another four years of his dad. The left conveniently ignores that she was repeatedly cheated on and stood by her man (weakness). That she was on the Walmart board. That over 30% of every dollar given to the Clinton Foundation goes to pay for the Clinton Foundation. That the secretary of state does not know the proper use of email and especially emails containing confidential material. And the permanent and intentional deletion of the bathroom server which was installed by two major campaign contributors. Then there’s her failed healthcare initiative when Bill was in power. She truly has a track record of failure.

    I applaud Flabby for his honesty and ability to debate intelligently. But I simply don’t see anything great about Hillary. I see someone who panders to the highest bidder. I see someone who lost to Obama after being anointed the first time around. I see someone who ran an incredibly dirty and unfair race against Bernie.

    I don’t see much in Trump in either, but I see some potential leadership in him which I do not see in her. Plus the progressives have made this country too soft. Enough with the quality of life krap already. If Trump hijacked the Democrat Primary, the DNC would applaud his progressive past. But Trump was extremely clever to go where the pickings were easy.

    Hillary is a terrible nominee. Sorry. But it’s the truth.

    “As a graduate of what many consider the most fcuking prestigious tax law program in the world”
    A very narcissistic statement and interesting, that in the same post you rail against the narcissism of the author of the article.

    Irony indeed!.

    #86/87

    Ok, lets deal with the email server. Remember back in 2008 when O got elected and wouldn’t give up the Blackberry. He said the Gvmt IT “make it work” and they did. That was the definition of the 2008 version of, BYOD.

    Fast forward. Hillary wants to use her own email server. The onus here is for Gvmt IT to make it work, or shut it down.

    As for the 30,000 missing emails from the server. Here’s a point I don’t hear discussed. If the information was classified, it came off a gvmt server. Why not look at the sending systems for the information. Also if Clinton.com was such a security risk, why was traffic allowed to be sent to it.

    There may be a genuine security issue here, but its not with Hillary. If you want to raise he11 on this issue, you have to look elsewhere.

  86. Fabius Maximus says:

    ” ignores that she was repeatedly cheated on and stood by her man ”

    Again, this is victim blaming and I will leave this to Gator to address, if she chooses.

  87. Wrong. You can create a classified document out of whole cloth. Back when I held US Secret and NATO clearances I would frequently create something utilizing classified information that I had in my head. I was required to take that work product to the security office and obtain a “C number”, have it labeled and then handle it appropriately.

    If the information was classified, it came off a gvmt server.

  88. Fabius Maximus says:

    #95 Expat,

    This should be fun and enlightening.

    I have not once witnessed a marriage succeed after a partner cheats on their spouse. Except in the house of Clinton. Gator and I have discussed it. If you need to cheat, you should not be married. It’s not fair to your spouse or your children. And if your spouse is dumb enough to forgive that ultimate bond of trust, then you married down. Way down. You have to be a child of a broken home to understand this. You obviously are not.

    Why did Hillary NEED a private server? Do you or I need/have one?

  91. [96] This is not rocket science (though I was a rocket scientist). If you know something classified, like “Person X will do Y on this date”, writing that in an email makes that email classified and it should be designated with C brackets within that email. That instantly becomes a classified document at the moment that you typed it. If that information is US Top Secret, then you just created a US Top Secret document. I worked with message formats that were classified for as little as one bit that was set to either a zero or a one. The whole document was classified if it showed the value of just that one bit, for example. When it comes to classified information there are always two basic acid test rules. To have that information in your possession you need to affirmatively have two things be true:

    1. Clearance at the same or higher level as the information in question.
    2. Need to know.

    It is a security violation to communicate that information to anyone who doesn’t also meet the same criteria.

    #97 Lib,

    My parents divorced in 77 in my formative years, so yes I do understand this. For me, this is off limits in a political campaign. The only point it becomes relevant, is if a candidate is campaigning on a Family Values platform,

    As for Hillary, I will again point you towards Kathy Lee Gifford.

    #98 Lib,

    No idea, I do have some friends with their own. Grim, do you have one on njrereport.com or are you just forwarding?

    Again, how was it allowed?

    Again, how did it leave the secure gvmt network to an unsecured (alleged) server.

    You can describe how it should be handled, but the the question is, how was it handled?

    “He said [to] the Gvmt IT “make it work” and they did.”

    Are you encouraging or just defending government officials breaking the law because they said so?

    “… or shut it down.”

    Are we supposed to believe that subordinates are going to eagerly disobey and turn in their superiors? No responsibility on the individual at all. Shocking. I’ve heard this logic before… it’s usually from a judge declaring that ignorance of the law IS an excuse for cops, both the individual who broke the law and the thin blue line for protecting / not turning someone in.

  97. secure land line, private in-person conversation. I think everyone gets this except you.
