Gorgeous new construction in NJ for under $3k? Yes, please

We have been talking so much about real estate on the air lately because this is the season where things start to really get out of control.

People are desperate to find homes to be in in time for the summer. There are bidding wars all over New Jersey and people are having to settle for way less than they wanted for way more than they wanted to pay.

With interest rates rising and inflation getting worse, you may have lost the incentive to purchase a new home, fearful that you won’t be able to afford it. The answer is to find something with a low payment. But houses under $300,000 in New Jersey are extremely hard to come by. And if you find them they are generally in poor condition or in bad neighborhoods.

The exception to the rule is this house in Glassboro, NJ. I don’t think I have seen new construction this well priced in New Jersey in many many years.

The home is traditional colonial with a beautiful porch and all of the amenities you would expect from a newly built home like a fully insulated basement and a heated garage.

The home, on McKinley Street, has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. There are tile and laminate floors, an eat-in kitchen with an island, beautiful stainless steel appliances in a bright pretty kitchen with sliders leading out to a back deck, and granite countertops, natch.

The Ultimate Guide to New Jersey Brewpubs

From the website that gave you the "Friendliest bars" and places to watch the game, comes the ultimate guide to New Jersey brewpubs.

So what's a "brew pub"?

According to Thompson Island's Article on the differences between a craft brewery, microbrewery, brewpub & gastropub, it says:

"A brewpub is a hybrid between a restaurant and a brewery. It sells at least 25% of its beer on-site in combination with significant food services. At a brewpub, the beer is primarily brewed for sale inside the restaurant or bar. Where it's legally allowed, brewpubs may sell beer to go or distribute it to some offsite destinations."

New Jersey has tons of Brewpubs, some of which have been around for years and some that have just opened in the past year.

Here is a full list of the 21 brewpubs in New Jersey according to New Jersey Craft Beer:
