Moorestown Real Estate Revaluation

It has been some time since Moorestown has gone through a complete revaluation – I believe back in the 1980s was the last time when the entire town's home assessments were recalculated.

So why a revaluation? Since it has been so long since our last revaluation the current assessments in the municipality are no longer uniform and representative of 100% of their true market value. Therefore, a revaluation fairly redistributes the necessary tax burden among all property owners based upon the true value of their property. Of course this was written into law as well so their is no way around it.

If you haven't heard... the Moorestown revaluation is completed. It appears Moorestown residents are now receiving them and are a hot topic around our office and the local coffee shops. One of my friends say their taxes actually stayed the same; however, another one of my Moorestown friends had their taxes go up by about $400. I have not received mine yet, but I look forward to reviewing it and appealing it if it wasn't valued properly.

By the way, rumor has it that Moorestown Township was inundated with calls from the first batch of reassessments mailed out so start your appeal process early.

If you have questions regarding your new assessed value and are considering an appeal, regardless if you are residential or commercial real estate owner, feel free to contact me. If for reason I cannot help you I will make sure I introduce you to someone who can. I look forward to answering your questions.

Here is the link to the company that Moorestown hired to do the revaluation and the posted values and sales values for your home - Appraisal Systems, Inc.

Best of luck!
