Navigating Through Wetland Issue

Hi All.

I'm hoping to get some help with a problem pertaining to wetlands. I'm working with a property in New Jersey that is borderline as to whether to renovate it on build new. The property is 1.3 acres and approximately 0.31 acres is classified by NJDEP as Deciduous Wooded Wetlands. How does this affect how I approach my offer? I don't want to mislead the sellers by telling them the property is not buildable if it isn't true. I tried to read the NJDEP code but I can't make sense of it. The sellers are old people that are likely to take any offer I make and I feel a responsibility to treat them fairly. Likewise, though, I don't want to end up with a property I can't move.

Thank you

Frank
