Newspaper Real Estate Acronyms

Have trouble figuring out what some of those ridiculous abbreviations are in the newspaper apartment classified sections? You’re not alone. A lot of industry professionals can’t figure them out either. Well, Garden State Apartments is publishing this list as a courtesy to both real estate professionals and the public to help “demystify” finding an apt in NJ. While we have performed a lot of research in order to supply the most accurate and best available information, but we do not accept any responsibility for the usage of the terms as described in this website. Good luck!

We want to hear from you! If you’d like to add more acronyms to this list, email us at editor@gardenstateapartments.com.

Saw one in the newspaper and can’t figure out what it is? Ask others on the discussion board.
