Every townhouse in Harmon Cove is a condominium, with individual ownership. Each owner pays their own taxes to the town of Secaucus, and condominium association fees to the Harmon Cove (I or II) Condo Association. There is no approval required from the Condo Board for the purchase or sale of apartments. The Condo Board maintains a security deposit from each owner. No approvals are required for the lease of an apartment.
Pets are permitted.
The town of Secaucus collects a substantial portion of its revenue from commercial and retail/mall establishments. This has enabled the property tax rate in Secaucus to be low compared to other towns in the neighborhood. The town has a large police force, and low crime rates.
Secaucus continues to maintain a small town feel while being less than 4 miles from Midtown Manhattan.
