Part of: How to Stop Foreclosure in NJ: Every Option, Ranked, the full map of this situation, with every related guide linked.

  1. Find your exact payoff amount. Call your servicer today and ask for a 30-day payoff statement. That number tells you whether a sale covers the debt or whether you need to discuss a short sale with your lender.
  2. Check your Pennsauken tax account. Pennsauken Township charges 8% interest on the first $1,500 of delinquent taxes and 18% on amounts above that, with an extra 6% penalty if you owe more than $10,000 on December 31. The Tax Collector's office at 2400 Merchantville Ave. can give you a current balance; call 856-665-1000 Ext. 1620 or visit Monday through Friday, 8:30 am to 4:30 pm. Sources: Pennsauken Tax Collector, Billing & Payment.
  3. Know your cure window. Under New Jersey's Fair Foreclosure Act, you have the right to cure your arrears up until a final judgment is entered. Once that judgment is recorded, only full payoff through redemption remains. Ask your attorney exactly where your case stands.
  4. Ask about foreclosure mediation. New Jersey runs a statewide residential foreclosure mediation program through the Superior Court, Chancery Division. It costs nothing to request and can buy you time to close a sale.
  5. Verify any cash buyer's proof of funds. As one operator put it, 'Any legitimate cash buyer should hand you a proof-of-funds letter from a real bank or private lender within 24 hours of making an offer. If they stall on that document, they do not have the money lined up and your deal is already in trouble.' Ask before you sign anything.
  6. Pick a closing date that works for you. We let you choose your own closing date. We work with sellers to find a move-out timeline that fits their situation. That flexibility matters when you are juggling a foreclosure timeline and a family to relocate.
  7. Request your offer today. The sooner you start, the more options you have. Get your cash offer here and know your number within 24 hours, with no obligation and no fees.

Why Selling Fast Works Better Than Waiting in Pennsauken

Pennsauken Township holds an annual tax sale for prior-year delinquent charges including property taxes, solid waste, and sewer fees. Once a tax sale certificate is sold, interest begins accruing against your title. A private certificate holder can move to foreclose that lien after 2 years from the sale date, adding a second legal clock on top of your mortgage foreclosure. Selling before either action reaches final judgment protects the equity you have built. A cash sale also cuts out appraisals entirely. In a traditional sale, an appraisal that comes in short can reopen or kill a deal after weeks on market -- time you cannot afford when a court date is approaching. We buy homes as-is, so repairs, cleanup, and showings are not part of the equation. Compare your full set of options in our short sale vs. cash sale guide.

What Closing Costs Look Like When You Sell to Us

When you sell to us, you pay no agent commissions and no fees on our side. As a seller in New Jersey, you will still owe the state realty transfer fee, which scales with your sale price under N.J.S.A. 46:15-7. At $400,000, for example, that fee runs about 0.80% of the price. Your attorney can walk you through any other closing costs specific to your situation. If you are relocating or selling after a job loss, our related guides on seller closing costs in NJ and relocating on a deadline explain what to expect.
