BOROUGH HOME SALE CHECKLIST
The Borough does not require a Certificate of Occupancy for the sale of a residential property. There are several steps that you will need to complete before closing:
- Call the Department of Public Works to schedule a House Inspection, 609-737-9440. - e-mail rsmith@penningtonboro.org
- Call the Bureau of Fire Safety to schedule an inspection for Smoke and Carbon Monoxide Detector: https://www.hopewelltwp.org/451/Home-Resale-Rentals
- Once you have a closing date, email Betty Sterling at bsterling@penningtonboro.org to schedule a final meter read. Please include the name of your title company in your email.
The fee for the House Inspection is $100. The fee for a non-quarterly meter read is $50. These fees will be charged to the final water/sewer bill.
