If a fire escape on a Fairfield property is approaching its 5-year inspection cycle, has been cited for a code violation, or is required for an insurance renewal, Oyster Fire Escape Inspections performs the inspection, the load test where applicable, and issues the certification. Service covers every municipality in Essex County, New Jersey.
Essex County, anchored by Newark, is heavy on multi-family housing — two-families, three-families, four-families. East Orange and Irvington sellers often own occupied multi-units.
Newark and East Orange tax rates are 2.5-3.5% of assessed value; tax-delinquency is common and Tony's title company handles back-tax payoff routinely.
Essex County multi-family closings often involve tenant-occupied units, lease estoppel certificates, and security-deposit transfer paperwork.
