Cherry Hill Township Code Enforcement: What Home Sellers Need to Know

Cherry Hill Township code enforcement issues open violations that can become liens recorded against your property, and those liens must be cleared before or at closing. The township's offices are at 820 Mercer Street, and the municipal court is also at that address. If you need copies of court records tied to a violation, you file a Records Request Form with the court there. Sellers who want to sell as-is in Cherry Hill often discover open violations only after ordering a title search, so the earlier you check, the more options you have.

Liens from unpaid fines or municipal charges sit on title until paid. Under N.J.S.A. 40:49-5, each separate offense can carry a fine of up to $2,000. Those totals add up fast on a neglected property. The Camden County Sheriff's sale listings show Cherry Hill properties already in foreclosure alongside tax and government liens, which means unresolved code issues can accelerate a bad situation.
