Inherited property in Edgewater Park
What families find in Edgewater Park.
Edgewater Park Township lies along the Delaware opposite Bristol Township and Bensalem in Pennsylvania, with Beverly, Delanco, Willingboro, and Burlington Township around it. It broke away from the old Beverly Township in 1924, and its population is now near 8,900, on less than three square miles. Route 130 marks its southeastern side and County Route 543 runs closer to the river. Families inheriting a house here may face storm damage, a tenant, or older records, sometimes all at once.
Silver Park West flooding
In August 2024, downpours forced evacuations from 15 homes, in Silver Park West and on Forrestal Drive. If a parent's house there took on water, drywall, floors, or mechanicals may still be damaged, and an insurance claim may be unfinished. Gembrook buys the property with that damage and does not ask the estate to complete the repairs.
The estate as landlord
The River Line station shared with Beverly and bus routes toward Trenton, Camden, and Philadelphia bring renters to town. When a parent who owned a rental dies, the lease does not end; the estate takes over. Gembrook can buy an occupied home and deal with the tenant from then on.
Records from before 1924
Land in Edgewater Park belonged to Beverly Township until the 1924 split, and Beverly Township later became Delanco. A family property held for generations may have deeds or surveys describing older boundaries and names. Our title work follows that history so the estate can transfer the house.
Probate for a Edgewater Park 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 →

Edgewater Park questions
Mom's house off Forrestal Drive flooded in 2024 and the insurance claim never closed. Can the estate still sell to Gembrook?
Yes. We look at the damage and the claim's status with the family and make our proposal on the house as it is, without waiting for the claim to close.
Dad rented his Edgewater Park house to a family who still live there. Do they have to leave?
No. Gembrook can buy the house occupied and take over the lease, so the estate does not have to ask the tenants to move.
Where is probate filed for a house in Edgewater Park?
Probate for someone who lived in Edgewater Park 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 Edgewater Park 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.
