How foreclosure and tax sales work in New Jersey
General rules. Procedures vary by county, so confirm with the official office.
New Jersey uses judicial foreclosure: the lender must sue in court, and the property is sold by the county sheriff.
New Jersey is generally a tax lien state: the municipal tax collector sells liens or certificates on unpaid property taxes, and the buyer earns interest or penalties until the owner pays.
