Board of Taxation
The Atlantic County Board of Taxation maintains information on real estate assessments for Atlantic County and is responsible for the property tax assessment appeal process. This office maintains the property tax list books for all real property in Atlantic County. The tax list books contain information such as: property owner’s names, addresses, block and lot numbers and assessments.

Assessment Notices
Assessment notices, usually in the form of a post card, are mailed to the taxpayer’s address in late January. If you do not receive an assessment notice, please contact your municipal assessor’s office to obtain your assessed value for 2024.
Your assessment is an indication of value. If you believe that the value listed on the notice is more than what you could sell it for, you may want to file a Petition of Appeal.
