About the briefs

How a brief works

Every brief starts with reporting by a local outlet whose full article we read. We name the publication and link to it before we say anything of our own.

The body is our summary, in our words. Nothing is copied from the article, and the photographs are never theirs. Our take is what the story means for a builder, a land owner or a buyer in that town. Each brief is cleared by Justin Kelly, NJ Real Estate Broker-Salesperson, before it runs.
