Camden County, NJsheriff sales & tax auctions

A sheriff's deed, delivered after the 10-day objection period and payment of the balance. Sales are 'subject to unpaid taxes, assessments, water, rents' and any first mortgage or municipal, state or federal lien (Monmouth), and 'subject to restrictions of record, which are unknown to the Sheriff' (Hudson). As-is, no inspection.

Redemption

10 days after the sale. Rule 4:65-5 bars the sheriff from delivering the deed 'unless a motion for the hearing of an objection to the sale is served within [ten] days after the sale', and the N.J. Supreme Court (Hardyston) held the mortgagor has an 'unqualified right to redeem the property within the ten-day period'; a timely objection extends it, and a bankruptcy filing can extend it 60 days (App. Div. A-1744-23, 2024).

Deposit

20% of the bid immediately at the auction in certified check, cashier's or treasurer's check, or cash (Monmouth caps cash at $1,000; Hudson requires certified or cashier's check).

Balance due

Balance within 30 days of the sale; lawful interest runs on the balance from the 11th day, and no payment is accepted during the first 10 days because that is the redemption period (Monmouth, Hudson).

Bid increment

Not statewide. Hudson County: $5,000 minimum raises until the plaintiff stops bidding, then $2,000.

To bid

County-specific; the successful bidder signs the sheriff's Conditions of Sale acknowledgment at the auction (Hudson).

Each county sheriff, in person: Monmouth at the Public Safety Center in Freehold; Hudson at the County Administration Building, 595 Newark Ave, Jersey City.
