Estimate your Camden home-sale proceeds
See what you'd actually walk away with. We started with Zillow's typical home value for Camden, $152,107 (As of August 2026; Zillow typical home value for Camden, NJ) (Source: Zillow Home Value Index), and the verified local transfer taxes or filing fees: New Jersey's graduated realty transfer fee ($2.00 per $500 up to $150,000, $3.35 per $500 from $150,000 to $200,000, and $3.90 per $500 from $200,000 to $350,000; a higher schedule applies to the whole price above $350,000), plus the separate graduated percent fee on home sales over $1 million (1% through $2 million, 2% through $2.5 million, 2.5% through $3 million, 3% through $3.5 million, and 3.5% above $3.5 million). Pick your home's condition, from light touch-ups to fire damage, and change any number.
Camden, NJ illustrative estimate
Camden, NJ illustrative home sale net proceeds estimate
The sale price is only the starting point. What matters is what you keep after your payoff, repairs, fees, and other costs come out. That's your net proceeds.
The home value starts with Zillow’s typical value for the area. Your house may be worth more or less. You can change the value and every cost below. Adjust anything you know, including your payoff, repair or credit risk, cleanout cost, agent commission, and how long you expect to carry the property.

See what you'd actually walk away with.
Your starting home-value estimate may come from a public source when one is available. You can edit that estimate and each cost input above; your property's actual value and closing costs may differ.
Choose the condition that best fits your home, then update the value, mortgage payoff, and cost inputs with what you know. The local-cost input is an editable cost reserve, not a verified local tax rate.
Three simple steps
1
Tell us about your house
Share the address, what needs work and who lives there. Tell us when we can see it and when you want to sell.
2
Get your offer
We give written cash offers in 24 hours.
3
Close
Written offer and written terms before you commit; title-company closing.
Your situation
Selling a Camden house when something has made it harder
Foreclosure
If a foreclosure sale is scheduled, tell us the date right away so we can try to close before it.
Fire damage
You keep the insurance money and don't have to worry about the house anymore — we'll take care of it.
Confirm how the proceeds and any mortgage requirements apply to your claim with your insurer and mortgage servicer.
Liens and back taxes
When you sell to us, we can set it up so you don't have to prepay anything — it comes out at closing.
Tenants
You're done — no turnover, no repairs, no more bad tenants.
Code violations
The fines don't stop while you think about it. They pile up, they add new ones, and every month takes another bite out of what the property is worth to you. We can buy it quickly, violations and all, so you stop the bleeding and keep your equity.
Divorce
You only have to agree on one thing — the price. After that we handle the rest, so there's nothing to argue about over repairs, contractors, showings, or who pays for what.
Cash Offer or EZ Sale: compare the written numbers
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.

New Jersey selling costs: the realty transfer fee
New Jersey charges the seller a realty transfer fee when the deed is recorded. For a sale of $350,000 or less, it is calculated in rising price bands for each $500: $2.00 per $500 up to $150,000, $3.35 per $500 from $150,000 to $200,000, and $3.90 per $500 from $200,000 to $350,000. On a $200,000 sale, the standard fee is $935. Above $350,000, a higher rate schedule applies to the whole price.
A separate graduated percent fee also applies to home sales over $1 million unless the transfer is exempt. It is based on the whole price: 1% over $1 million through $2 million, 2% over $2 million through $2.5 million, 2.5% over $2.5 million through $3 million, 3% over $3 million through $3.5 million, and 3.5% above $3.5 million. Some New Jersey residents who are 62 or older, blind or disabled may qualify for a reduced realty transfer fee on a one- or two-family home they own and live in; qualifying low- and moderate-income housing also gets the reduced rate. Some transfers are exempt.
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.
Check the current schedule and any reduced-rate or exemption requirements with the New Jersey Division of Taxation or the closing professional handling the deed. Read the realty transfer fee rates or the state’s transfer fee FAQs.
What Camden sellers should know
Rental inspections and approval
The City says rental properties are inspected at a change of ownership and/or occupancy and need a Rental Approval Certificate before occupancy. Its published prerequisites include current taxes, utilities on at inspection, and City Rent Control and Municipal Clerk registration. If the house is rented, ask the City Housing Bureau which current steps apply to its address and occupancy.
Local names and the exact address
City posts use neighborhood labels such as Cramer Hill and East Camden. They help orient a conversation, but do not establish a parcel boundary or historic-district status. Use the exact address when checking a local requirement or asking which office handles a notice.
City post identifying Cramer Hill → City post identifying East Camden →
Historic-review and code notices
The City has a Historic Preservation Commission and Historic Review Committee. If a property may have historic significance or be in a historic district, ask the City whether review applies before budgeting proposed development work. If you have a code notice or court paper, keep it with the property records and use the contact route on the notice; the City Code Enforcement Department lists a separate route for foreclosed vacant properties. None of these general city pages determines an individual property’s status.
City Historic Preservation Commission → City Code Enforcement Department →
City tax records and County deed records are separate
Camden City assessment and tax-account questions go to different City offices; Camden County Clerk resources cover recorded deeds and mortgages. For estate-service contacts, the County Surrogate’s Court publishes its current routes. The City and County serve different purposes, so take the property address and the relevant bill, notice, or record when you contact them.

Rutgers University–Camden lists its visitor address at 303 Cooper Street, with campus entry at Third and Cooper Streets. It is a local point of reference, not a valuation for a nearby property. Rutgers–Camden visitor information →

Questions about selling a house in Camden
Can I sell a Camden house without repairs or cleanup first?
Yes. We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us. Share the address and what you know about the condition so you can compare the written terms with another sale path.
How does New Jersey calculate the realty transfer fee?
New Jersey charges the seller a realty transfer fee when the deed is recorded. The standard fee uses graduated price bands; on a $200,000 sale it is $935. A higher rate schedule applies above $350,000, and a separate graduated percent fee applies to home sales over $1 million unless the transfer is exempt. Some sellers and qualifying housing may get a reduced rate, and some transfers are exempt. 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.
What should I check if I rent out a Camden property?
The City says rental properties are inspected at a change of ownership and/or occupancy and require a Rental Approval Certificate before occupancy. Its published inspection information lists current taxes, utilities on at inspection, and City Rent Control and Municipal Clerk registration among the prerequisites. Ask the City Housing Bureau which steps apply to the property and its current occupancy.
Which office handles a Camden assessment or deed record?
The City Office of Assessments handles City assessment and property-data questions, while the City Bureau of Revenue Collections handles City tax-account and payment inquiries. Camden County Clerk resources cover deed and mortgage records. Use the property address and the record or notice you have when contacting an office.
Where do I start with an inherited Camden house?
Camden County Surrogate’s Court lists estate-service contacts and instructions. The estate papers and specific situation determine who may act; the home’s location alone does not establish authority to sign or where an estate matter belongs.
Should I check historic status before planning exterior work?
If the property may have historic significance or be in a historic district, ask the City Historic Review Committee whether review applies to the address and proposed work. The City’s Historic Preservation Commission page gives its contact route; a neighborhood name alone does not establish a property’s status.
Where should I take a Camden code notice or court paper?
Keep the notice with the property records and use the City contact or instructions printed on it. The City Code Enforcement Department lists a separate contact route for foreclosed vacant properties; that route does not determine the status of a particular address.
