Deal Check: Pass
Why- Approx. judgment/upset amount owed to the lender: $582,388 (source: official Essex County sheriff list, as of Oct 28, 2026).
- Town's net assessed value (MOD-IV tax list): $241,800 (source: NJ MOD-IV tax list via NJ Office of GIS parcel composite (NJOGIS / NJ Division of Taxation), retrieved Oct 29, 2026).
- $582,388 ÷ $241,800 = 241%. Our rule: 50% or less = Strong, up to 80% = Fair, above = Pass.
- NJ assessed values are not market values; each town's assessment ratio differs, so treat this as a rough guide. The lender can bid up to what it is owed, so the final price may differ.
- Yearly property tax on record: $9,196 (source: NJ MOD-IV tax list via NJ Office of GIS parcel composite (NJOGIS / NJ Division of Taxation), retrieved Oct 29, 2026).
- Back taxes are not published in our sources; check the county treasurer/tax collector.
- Postponed 3 time(s) per the official status history.
- Occupancy: not stated by the official source.
Deal Check is a simple math check of published numbers, not an appraisal and not financial advice. It does not know the condition, liens, title problems, or back taxes. Inspect from the street, run a title/lien search, and verify everything with the county before you bid.
