Talk about New Jersey real estate prices and it's inevitable that New York should be mentioned to put things in perspective. And indeed, a lot of the New Jersey market is a reflection of the one in New York; New Jersey's advantage is a comparative one, intimately tied to New York's high costs.
Thus, for those who can afford the commute, New Jersey may prove a viable option for housing or hosting (of business facilities). New Jersey does have the highest property taxes in the country, so it may not be the best place to purchase your home, but businesses should find a warm official reception in the form of tax breaks and other such policies.
New Jersey's fundamentals mirror New York because of geographic proximities and a shared commuter base. New Jersey hosts a wide range of businesses, which happy fact should set the Garden State for a rebound over the years to come.

With its small cities and towns, most of New Jersey is suburban and serviced by regional shopping centers. Few have failed, even in this economy, because there simply isn't any other way whereby far-flung residents may purchase daily necessities.
Indeed, new developments proceed, albeit cautiously in a tight credit market, on the expectation that New Jersey's growing population can only need more shopping centers, not less, in the years soon to come.
