S 4909 New Jersey Senate · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Increases property tax assessment appeal filing fees.

This bill increases filing fees for property tax assessment appeals in New Jersey. It raises fees based on a property's assessed value: for properties under $150,000, the fee jumps from $5 to $25; for $150,000-$500,000, from $25 to $75; for $500,000-$1 million, from $100 to $150; and for properties over $1 million, from $150 to $200. Fees also increase for classification-only appeals (from $25 to $75 per parcel) and other appeal types. These fees, last raised in 1979, directly affect taxpayers filing appeals with county boards of taxation.
