Inherited property in Cinnaminson
What families find in Cinnaminson.
Facing Philadelphia across the Delaware, Cinnaminson Township is bordered by Pennsauken, Palmyra, Riverton, Delran, Moorestown, and Maple Shade. Between 1950 and 1970 its population grew more than fivefold, to roughly 17,000, so the house a family inherits here is often a postwar home a parent bought long ago. Sections include Bellview, Wrightsville, Taylor, and New Albany, and the heirs settling these estates may live far from any of them.
A home bought decades ago
Much of Cinnaminson's housing went up during its 1950s and 1960s boom. When a parent lived in one of those homes for most of their life, the roof, electrical panel, windows, or sewer line may still be original. Gembrook buys the property as it stands, so the heirs are not organizing updates on a house they won't keep.
Storm water near Route 130
Heavy rain in August 2024 put part of Route 130 under water by Taylor's Lane. A parent's basement may have flooded in a storm like this without anyone noticing while the house sat empty. We look at the property with the family and take it with whatever damage it has.
Checking on an empty house
With the River Line's Cinnaminson stop on Broad Street and several bus routes, it's not hard for heirs to visit, but an inherited home still needs regular attention. Utilities, insurance, and upkeep continue while the estate is open. We work with the family so the estate isn't holding the house longer than necessary.
Probate for a Cinnaminson property
The Burlington County Surrogate's Court, handled for you.
In New Jersey, an estate is opened in the county where the person who passed away lived. For Burlington County that's the Burlington County Surrogate's Court in Mount Holly. With a will, the executor is appointed there; without one, an administrator is appointed, and the other heirs typically sign renunciations.
Before an inherited house can be sold, New Jersey also usually needs an inheritance tax waiver — or, for close family, an affidavit — and any liens, judgments or back taxes have to be resolved. We coordinate all of it for you. Read our full New Jersey probate guide →

Cinnaminson questions
Mom's Cinnaminson house still has the original kitchen and heating system. Will that hold up the estate?
It doesn't need to. Gembrook buys the home in its current condition, and the estate does not have to update anything beforehand.
We found water in the basement of Dad's house after a storm. Should we fix it before talking to you?
You can contact us first. We review the damage with the family and take it into account instead of asking the estate to arrange repairs.
Where is probate filed for a house in Cinnaminson?
Probate for someone who lived in Cinnaminson is handled by the Burlington County Surrogate's Court in Mount Holly. That's where a will is admitted, or an administrator is appointed when there's no will. When your family sells to Gembrook Properties, we handle this step with you, and in most cases you just sign where needed.
Can you cover the probate costs for a Cinnaminson property?
Yes, when your family sells the inherited property to Gembrook Properties. In many cases we cover the cost of opening the estate, including the family's estate attorney fees, so the family pays nothing out of pocket.
What if the heirs don't agree?
That's common. We speak with each heir separately and privately, so no one has to negotiate as a group, and the executor or court-appointed administrator signs the sale.
