Camden, New Jersey · Camden County seller guide
Yes. USA Home Buyers buys houses as-is in Camden and throughout Camden County. We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us.
We'll give you a written cash offer within 24 hours. You see written offer and written terms before you commit; closing is through a title company.
The short answer
Start with the exact address, condition, access, occupancy, ownership, payoff, tax account and the date that matters to you. Then compare a direct as-is sale with a realistic listing plan. You do not have to repair, clean or clear out the house to sell it to us.
Selling choices
If the house is ready to show and you have time, ask an agent about a listing plan. Compare repair bids, cleaning, preparation, showings, commissions, possible buyer requests, and the bills you would carry while waiting for closing.
We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us. Read the written price and terms before you commit, then compare what you would keep with the work, costs and timing of a listing. The closing is through a title company.
A listing may fit if you can prepare the house, schedule showings and wait for a buyer. Compare its likely sale price with repairs, cleanout, commissions, buyer requests and the bills you carry. A direct sale lets you compare written terms without starting repair or cleanout work first.
We have two ways to buy. A Cash Offer is built for speed, condition, and tough situations — heavy repairs, tight timelines, difficult circumstances. EZ Sale is often the better fit when the house doesn't need major repairs and you want a higher number. Either way, you compare written numbers and you pick what works best for you.

Local property questions
Camden is in Camden County, New Jersey. City and county offices keep different records: the City Office of Assessments handles assessment and tax-map routes, while the County Clerk provides deed and mortgage-record information. Confirm the address and the record you need rather than treating a mailing address or neighborhood name as a property determination.
The City's Bureau of Housing says rental properties are inspected at a change of ownership and/or occupancy and must have a Rental Approval Certificate before occupancy. Its published inspection prerequisites include current taxes, utilities on at inspection, and Rent Control and Municipal Clerk registration. The City Rent Control office also lists landlord registration and tenant-complaint services. Check the current City requirements for the actual property and occupancy.

Camden has a Historic Preservation Commission and Historic Review Committee. If a property has historic significance or is in a historic district, ask the City whether proposed development needs review. The commission page does not determine an individual address's status.
The City Department of Code Enforcement has a separate contact route for foreclosed vacant properties. If you received a notice, use the notice or current City contact to ask what applies to that address.
City announcements use names such as Cramer Hill and East Camden for local areas; those names help with orientation, not parcel boundaries. Rutgers University–Camden lists its campus entry at Third and Cooper Streets. Neither point determines a house's district, condition or value.

Closing questions
Who can sign depends on the deed, estate appointment and court papers for that property. Gather the deed, will and Letters Testamentary or Letters of Administration, then have a title professional or your attorney confirm who must sign. Camden County's Surrogate Court provides estate-service information; the home's location by itself does not establish the signer or venue.

New Jersey charges the seller a Realty Transfer Fee when the deed is recorded. The rate rises by price tier; above $350,000, a higher schedule applies to the whole price. For a home sale over $1 million, a separate Graduated Percent Fee may also apply unless the transfer is exempt. The fee is based on the transaction and any applicable exception or reduction, so ask the title company to confirm the calculation for your sale.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including New Jersey's realty transfer fee and any applicable graduated percent fee. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes and share of current property taxes are separate.

Can you still sell your New Jersey house in foreclosure? Often, yes, if the sale closes before the sheriff's sale. New Jersey foreclosures go through the courts. The lender must first send a Notice of Intention to Foreclose; you then have 30 days to catch up on the debt or ask for mediation before the lender can file in court. After you are served, you have 35 days to answer the complaint. In an uncontested residential foreclosure, the lender normally must send a notice at least 14 calendar days before submitting proofs for final judgment, explaining how to get the amount needed to catch up.
After final judgment, the sheriff sells the house at a public auction called a sheriff's sale. The sale must be advertised for at least four weeks, and the sheriff has 150 days from the writ of execution to hold it. You can ask the sheriff for two postponements of the sale, each up to 30 calendar days; the lender can get two as well. One more postponement is allowed if both sides agree, and a court can order more for good cause. After the sale, you generally have 10 days to redeem the house by paying the full amount due, including the judgment and sale costs. Free foreclosure mediation is available through the courts.
If a foreclosure sale is scheduled, tell us the date right away so we can try to close before it.
