Repair or Sell As Is in Sicklerville? Run the Numbers
A line-by-line worksheet for comparing a repaired listing with an as-is cash sale in Sicklerville, using Winslow's real property tax rate.
Put both options on the same sheet and the answer becomes clear. Start with what each path actually puts in your pocket: a realistic after-repair price based on recent sales nearby, and a real written as-is offer. Then subtract every cost each path carries, using the lines in the table below. Get written bids from contractors for repairs. Do not guess at numbers. Check whether the work needs permits, too, because Winslow requires open permits to be closed before it issues a resale certificate.

Your side-by-side worksheet
| Repair, then list | Sell as is for cash | |
|---|---|---|
| Sale price | Realistic after-repair price from recent nearby sales | The written offer |
| Repairs | Contractors' written bids, plus permit fees | None |
| Agent commission | Typically 5% to 6% of the price | None |
| Months until closing | Repair time plus time on the market | Often a few weeks |
| Carrying costs | Months x (taxes + mortgage + insurance + utilities) | Same formula, fewer months |
| Realty Transfer Fee | Applies | Applies |
| Mortgage payoff | Same on both paths | Same on both paths |
| What you net | Price minus every line above | Offer minus every line above |
Time is the line most people leave out. Winslow's 2025 effective property tax rate is 2.293% of market value (state tax rate table). On a $300,000 house, that's roughly $575 a month before the mortgage, insurance, and utilities. A few months of repairs followed by a few months on the market adds up fast. The Realty Transfer Fee applies on both paths, so neither route escapes it. Once your sheet is filled in, compare the two bottom lines. Not the two sale prices. Our guide to selling a house as is in Sicklerville walks through the other options, and you can request a written offer to put a real number in the right-hand column.
