The Census Bureau's ACS 2025 medians put New Jersey's typical bill at $9,648 on a $530,800 home — an effective 1.82%. Effective rates blend every local levy into one comparable number; your parcel's assessed value and local rates set the real bill.

The CFPB puts typical buyer closing costs at 2–5% of the loan (origination, appraisal, title, prepaid escrows). The default here is 3% and the field is yours to change — no official schedule exists, and this page will not pretend one does. New Jersey transfer/recording charges sit inside that range for most purchases.

Property tax. At 1.82%, New Jersey adds $805 a month on the median home — in the highest-tax states that rivals a full percentage point of interest rate.
No — it is the state's median effective rate applied to your price. Assessments, exemptions (homestead and others) and local rates move real bills both ways; the county assessor's figure governs.
Below 20% down, lenders usually add private mortgage insurance (roughly 0.3–1.5% of the loan per year) until you reach ~20% equity. It is not in the default total — add it to the insurance line mentally if it applies.
