Inherited property in Lindenwold

What families find in Lindenwold.

Covering nearly 4 square miles on the White Horse Pike, Lindenwold touches Gloucester Township, both Berlins, Somerdale, Laurel Springs, Stratford, Pine Hill, Clementon, Gibbsboro and Voorhees. It became a separate borough in 1929. The PATCO Speedline ends here, Atlantic City Line trains stop here, and the borough takes in portions of both Lucastown and Kirkwood. With roughly 9,700 homes counted in 2020, so an inherited property here could be a single-family home or a house a parent rented out.

A parent who was landlord

Lindenwold's rental vacancy rate was about 5 percent in 2020, so many rentals here stay occupied. If a parent owned one, the estate inherits the tenant and the lease along with the building, and someone must collect rent and answer repair calls. We can purchase a property with the tenant in place and take on that relationship after closing.

Near the rail terminus

The Lindenwold stop is the last on PATCO's line and its operations base, and Atlantic City Line trains call there too. Heirs who live in Philadelphia or farther away often find that the train makes visits possible, but managing an empty house through the estate period is still a burden. We work around the family's schedule and the estate's timeline.

Kirkwood and Lucastown

Kirkwood and Lucastown both extend into Lindenwold's roughly 45 miles of roadway. Family members sometimes know a parent's house only by the section name, while the deed and tax bill say Lindenwold. We confirm the correct lot and municipality through title work, and take the house as it stands, with older roofs or heating left for us.

Probate for a Lindenwold property

The Camden 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 Camden County that's the Camden County Surrogate's Court in Camden. 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 →

Lindenwold questions

Mom owned a rental in Lindenwold and the tenant is still there. What happens now?

The lease generally continues, and the estate steps into the landlord's role until the property is sold. We can buy with the tenant in place, so the family does not need to arrange a move-out.

We're not sure whether Dad's house is in Kirkwood or Lindenwold. Does it matter?

Kirkwood is a place name that falls partly within Lindenwold, so the deed and tax bill are what count. We confirm the municipality and lot during the title search.

Where is probate filed for a house in Lindenwold?

Probate for someone who lived in Lindenwold is handled by the Camden County Surrogate's Court in Camden. 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 Lindenwold 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.

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.
