How do you Appeal Property Taxes in New Jersey?

We have a SFR in Camden County NJ and the assessed value is $203k. It's a small 3/2/1400sf and nothing on the street or neighborhood has sold over $160 since the bubble. What are the steps to file an appeal and have the assessment adjusted to reflect the true market value of the home?

Thanks,

Ray

    Hello Ray, 

    I dont know much about tax appeals except for the fact that you must file an appeal from Oct. 1st - April 1st.  And if they rule in your favor then the new assesment is not applicable until the following year.  You wont reap the benefits right away.

    Thanks @Paul Cadorette  That article was helpful.  I have begun to gather my info and have also contacted a local attorney.
