Buying property along the New Jersey shore is a dream for many clients. For the attorneys who represent them, however, waterfront transactions demand heightened vigilance. Tidelands issues can significantly affect ownership rights, insurability, and long-term value; and missing them can expose clients to serious financial and legal risk.
This program equips real estate attorneys with the practical knowledge needed to identify, evaluate, and strategically address tidelands concerns, allowing them to confidently protect their clients’ interests.
Topics include:
- What are tidelands?
- Are tidelands just on the shoreline, or can they be inland?
- Importance of tideland searches
- Differences between grants, licenses and leases
- Reading tidelands search report
- How to handle tidelands when they appear on transactions and how they are insured
- Hidden costs of buying a house near the water
- And more
Walk away with the ability to spot red flags early, advise clients with confidence, and advocate effectively for clients investing in New Jersey waterfront properties.
