What will this home really cost you each month?

Most online calculators assume about 1.1% a year in property tax. Most of South Jersey runs closer to 2.6–3.1%, so the payment you see online is often hundreds of dollars short. This one uses county averages instead.

For investors · Multifamily underwriting

Does this rental deal actually work?

New Jersey property taxes are among the highest in the country, and they sink multifamily deals that look fine on paper. Plug in a property to see cash flow, cap rate, cash-on-cash return and DSCR with a real county tax rate.

An estimate, not underwriting. Tax rates are county averages and your town will differ, sometimes sharply. Lenders size loans on their own appraisal and rent roll, and a DSCR below about 1.20 usually fails an investment loan.
