Hi all, Im originally from NJ, and I have been wanting to move back there in the future.
I know the taxes are high in NJ, but by what amount? 10k a year? 6k a year?
Can someone give me an idea about how much people are paying total? (Northern NJ)
And are there any areas still decent as far as taxes goes?
Thanks for all your help.

My family and I own a 80 x100 vacant lot in the Villas NJ and the property taxes on it just jumped from $700 a year to $1800!!

And that's without any kind of structure on the property! What in the world is going on since I moved to South Carolina??




Anyone want to buy a nice buildable lot, a block and a half from the bay?

salomea, it depends on what town. My house, just one block over (on the next town) would be worth more and have higher taxes. I would say an average 3-4 br on average lot, taxes would be 9-10k, but again, location plays a part.

Thanks brookdale for the information.
