Re: Any recommendations of good towns for families in new jersey
Hi
Hopefully our lease will be agreed this week but when we were looking I used to go on http://new.gsmls.com/publicsite/index.jsp daily to look for rentals. (My relocation realtor advised that website was the one they use and updated the most frequently) Some do have availability dates quite far in the future so I would def be checking now for August as ours is for July and only just getting sorted. Had a quick peek and there are quite a few for Bernards Twp and Bernardsville, less in Peapack and Gladstone. Basking Ridge comes under Bernards Twp I think. Once we were sure of our dates I had a weekend looking with a realtor and already knew them inside and out and what schools they were in catchment for etc so really trip was just to confirm what I already thought.
Hope you find something you like. I found that at the moment they are moving quite quickly.
