Don’t Miss the New Jersey Property Tax Appeal Deadline!

By now, most every New Jersey real estate owner should have received their property tax assessment postcard. For some reason, if you have not received the postcard, or lost it, call your municipality for a replacement. The postcard tells you the assessed value of your property which is used to determine your property tax bill. This assessment can be wrong. And in New Jersey, every property owner (and some tenants) has the right to appeal their tax assessment. If your assessment is $1,000,000 or less in Monmouth County, it’s already too late - the January 15, 2022, filing deadline has already passed. But the deadline to file an appeal in most locations is April 1st. If you feel your property has been over-assessed, don’t miss the 2022 filing deadline for a New Jersey Tax Appeal.

Revaluations & Reassessments

More frequently, municipalities in New Jersey are performing reassessments and revaluations to keep their tax rolls up to date. This can result in a significant increase in your property assessment. For municipalities that have performed a reassessment or revaluation, the deadline to appeal is May 2, 2022.

If you own real estate in any of the following municipalities, it is a good idea to see if your revaluation or reassessment is fair. Again, the deadline for an appeal for these places is May 2.
