Buyer & renter checklist
1. Confirm municipality
Do not use ZIP code alone. Match the property to Branchville Borough's tax map or tax records.
2. Check water & sewer
Ask whether the property is connected to municipal systems and verify any account, connection or inspection requirements.
3. Review zoning
Home occupations, additions, accessory structures and changes of use may require zoning or construction approvals.
4. Understand flood conditions
Parts of the borough follow streams and low-lying areas. Review official flood information and insurance requirements for the exact parcel.
