There are two distinct versions of Eminent Domain. New Jersey has the worst version, as does New York, Virginia, Illinois, etc. Some states like Florida do not allow it.
Eminent domain laws in the United States follow either a ‘quick-take’ or ‘slow-take’ process. Under a quick-take process, if the municipality and the property owner cannot agree on the fair market value of the property up front, the municipality can get title to the property immediately, with the issue of value to be resolved later, sometimes - if it ends up going to court – years later.
