David Chapman's Matawan office is at 266 Highway 34, serving homeowners across Monmouth, Middlesex, and Ocean counties, from Matawan, Aberdeen, and Old Bridge to Middletown, Marlboro, Freehold, and the shore towns. Nearly three-quarters of Monmouth County homes are owner-occupied, so a foreclosure here usually means a family home with real equity at stake.
Local knowledge that matters
Monmouth County foreclosures are filed in the Superior Court and, if contested, heard by the General Equity judges at the Monmouth County Courthouse, 71 Monument Street, Freehold, about twenty minutes from the office. The Civil Division, which includes General Equity, can be reached at (732) 358-8700 ext. 87590.
The Monmouth County Sheriff holds foreclosure sales every other Monday at 1:00 PM at its Public Safety Center, 2500 Kozloski Road, Freehold, moving to Tuesday when Monday is a holiday. Bidding opens at $1,000, the deposit is 20 percent in certified or official bank check or cash up to $1,000, and the owner may redeem within 10 days after the sale. The Foreclosure Unit is at (732) 431-6400 ext. 1149.
Matawan sits near the Middlesex County line, and many clients of this office live in Old Bridge, Sayreville, and the Amboys, where cases are heard at the Middlesex County Courthouse in New Brunswick. David handles both counties from this office, along with Ocean County cases heard in Toms River.
Bayshore and shore homeowners who still carry rebuilding debt, insurance shortfalls, or elevation costs from Superstorm Sandy have a documented hardship that supports a loan modification. The court's mediation program is free for owner-occupants who request it within 60 days of service. [Add parking directions and office hours if they differ.]
