    Property types we appraise

    As our home page lists them, our appraisals cover:

    • Single Family, Multi-family, Mixed Use & Condominiums
    • New Construction
    • Land Appraisals, Rural Properties

    Whatever the property, the report rests on its own size, condition, lot and setting, compared with sales of properties that genuinely resemble it.

    Cherry Hill's housing and neighborhoods

    The demographics chapter of the township's 2018 master plan describes a housing stock made up primarily of three- and four-bedroom single-family homes, most built between 1940 and 1980. The plan's land use element sorts the township's neighborhoods by residential zone:

    • R3, the zone with the smaller single-family lots: Still Park, Woodland, Barlow, Delwood, Cooper Park Village and Kingsway Village, among others.
    • R2, moderate lots: Kenilworth, Locustwood, Kingston Estates, Erlton North, Erlton South, Brookmeade, Knollwood and Cherry Valley, among others.
    • R1, lower density: Colwick, Old Charleston Woods and Woodcrest, among others.
    • The Residential Agricultural-Planned Community zone: Barclay Farms South, Point of Woods, Lakeview, Wexford Leas, Cherry Downs and Candlewyck, among others.

    The township's Consolidated Plan adds two area names: the Golden Triangle on the west side (Kenilworth, Woodland, Hinchman, Still Park, Colwick and Delwood) and Ashland on the south side (Bunker Hill, Willowdale, Timbercove, Eagle Oak and Woodcrest). We appraise throughout the township; send the full address and we will confirm coverage and timing. Our service area page has more on the township's sections and record offices.

    Why Cherry Hill owners order an appraisal

    Before you list

    A supported value helps you set an asking price and answer a buyer's questions with evidence.

    Selling without an agent

    Buyer and seller can open negotiations from the same independent figure.

    Dropping private mortgage insurance

    If the home's value has risen, an appraisal may support a request to end PMI. Ask your lender what it will accept before you order one.

    Refinancing

    Knowing the value first helps you judge your loan-to-value position before you apply; ask the lender whether it will consider an outside appraisal.

    A Camden County property tax appeal

    Cherry Hill's Department of Assessment Services determines the market value of township real estate for assessment purposes. If you think your assessment is too high:

    • The appeal goes to the Camden County Board of Taxation, whose page gives the filing window as after February 1 and on or before 4:00 PM on April 1. Under N.J.S.A. 54:3-21, the deadline becomes 45 days from the bulk mailing of assessment notices when that is later, and an assessment above $1,000,000 may go straight to the Tax Court.
    • Assessments in New Jersey are keyed to an October 1 sale price in the pre-tax year (N.J.S.A. 54:4-23); an appeal appraisal therefore normally carries that October 1 as its effective date, not today's.
    • Under the Division of Taxation's hearing guide, proving the assessment wrong is the taxpayer's job, and the guide asks for 3 to 5 comparable sales from before that October 1. The county board wants your evidence with the board, the municipal assessor and the municipal clerk at least seven days before the hearing.

    Confirm the dates for your tax year with the board or your attorney.

    Reviewing insurance coverage

    Some owners want an independent market value when they review coverage; tell us what the insurer has asked for.

    Donating a property

    Send the recipient's requirements and the intended use, and we will confirm whether the scope fits.

    Relocating

    If an employer's relocation program needs a value, include its requirements with the request.

    How a residential appraisal proceeds

    1. Your request. Call (856) 242-7771 or use the contact form with the address, approximate size, type of property and purpose. We reply with a written scope and fee.
    2. Scheduling. We agree a visit time and who will let the appraiser in.
    3. The visit. The appraiser measures the house, photographs it inside and out, and records its condition and features.
    4. Research and analysis. Comparable Cherry Hill sales are selected, adjusted for differences and reconciled into an opinion of value.
    5. Delivery. The report follows the delivery estimate in your scope; raise any timing need before you order.

    Fees

    Larger or unusual properties, a past effective date and a short deadline can each raise the fee, and estate, divorce and tax work involves more reporting. Ask for a written scope, fee and delivery estimate.
