Generally, in NJ, almost any assets can be used to satisfy a judgment.
Some states provide for a "homestead exemption" which prevents a home (if the debtor lives there) from being taken by creditors, or at least prevents the owners from being evicted by the creditors, even if other assets are insufficient to cover the judgment.
However, New Jersey has no such exemption. There is, however, an order that creditors must follow in going after a debtor's assets. First, they have to go after cash, then personal property. If both of those are insufficient to cover the judgment, then they can go after real property.
NJ does, however, provide for an exemption of up to $1,000 in personal property.
