Jefferson Township Property Revaluation Set for 2027 Tax Year
The County Board of Taxation has mandated revaluation be completed by Sept. 2026; new values will reflect Oct. 1, 2026 market evaluation.
JEFFERSON, NJ — Jefferson Township is moving forward with a court-mandated revaluation of all taxable real estate ahead of the 2027 tax year, though the process is still awaiting a key state approval.
The Morris County Board of Taxation has directed the township to complete the revaluation by September 2026. Before inspections can begin, the township is awaiting approval from the State of New Jersey for its tax maps.
Once that approval comes through, officials say they will publish a public timeline and launch an information campaign to keep residents informed.
