Bankruptcy Appraisals New Jersey

Certified Property Valuations for Chapter 7 & Chapter 13 Cases

When Good Value Matters, Don’t Guess it — Appraise It.

Why Bankruptcy Courts Require a Real Estate Appraisal

When filing for Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 bankruptcy in New Jersey, the court needs a clear, accurate picture of your financial situation — including the current value of any real estate you own.

A certified home appraisal ensures that your assets are properly disclosed, helping determine:
  • Whether your home qualifies for an exemption
  • How much equity you have (if any)
  • Whether your repayment plan is fair under Chapter 13
  • If the trustee may pursue liquidation under Chapter 7

At New Jersey Real Estate Appraisal Group (NJREAG), we provide confidential, court-ready appraisals for bankruptcy attorneys, trustees, and individuals across New Jersey.
