How do I find out what the property taxes will be on a new construction before purchasing a home?
I am interested in a newly constructed townhouse in Gloucester County, NJ. There is no tax information listed, so I looked at other townhouses in the development, but the range was anywhere from $7000-$9000/yr, which is a large range. I would like to find out a more exact value before I purchase this home. How do I get this information if it is a new construction, with no previous year’s tax information?
Contact the county or a realtor to get the tax rate in the county and then assume that the assessed value will be your purchase price.
Nice to know that someplace else also has horrible property taxes (like us in upstate NY).
good luck!
