About Timothy J. Dunn — Real Estate Closter New Jersey

Timothy J. Dunn runs a real estate Closter practice serving Bergen County residential and commercial clients from northern New Jersey. The firm handles closings, title disputes, leasing, and the probate side of property transfers — a useful combination given how often a real estate matter intersects with an estate. Bergen County recorded 8,162 home sales in the past year, with a median price of $772,304, which means closings remain the firm’s steady throughline.

Beyond closings, the practice handles wills, trusts, and litigation when transactions go sideways. Cases that proceed to court are filed in the Superior Court of New Jersey, Bergen Vicinage at 10 Main Street in Hackensack.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a lawyer for a real estate Closter closing?

New Jersey allows the use of attorneys, and most northern New Jersey buyers retain one because of the three-day attorney review period built into standard contracts. An attorney can renegotiate inspection items, review title commitments, and attend the closing. Closter buyers and sellers almost always involve counsel.

What is New Jersey’s three-day attorney review?

After a residential contract is signed, New Jersey buyers and sellers each get three business days to have an attorney review the contract. During that window, the lawyer can cancel or modify terms. The clock starts the day all parties have signed.

Where are Bergen County real estate disputes filed?

Most filings go to the Superior Court of New Jersey, Bergen Vicinage at 10 Main Street, Hackensack. Land records and deeds are recorded at the Bergen County Clerk’s Office in the Bergen County Justice Center. Quiet-title actions and partition cases follow the Chancery Division.
