What land do you buy in Burlington County?
We buy wooded Pine Barrens lots, farm-assessed ground, and vacant parcels throughout the county, from Pemberton, Southampton, and Tabernacle to Shamong, Woodland, Washington Township, and the Chatsworth area. Whether the lot is a fraction of an acre or many acres of forest, send us the details and we will research it.
How do the Pinelands affect Burlington County land?
More of Burlington sits in the Pinelands than any other county, and much of it is in the more restrictive management areas surrounding Wharton State Forest and the heart of the Pine Barrens. That means building is often limited, but parcels may carry Pinelands Development Credits that hold real value. We check the management area and PDC status on every Burlington parcel we look at.
Common reasons people sell here
A lot of Burlington land has been in families for generations, so inherited and estate parcels are common, along with land that has fallen behind on taxes. We also buy from owners who moved away and no longer want to pay taxes on Pine Barrens ground. See inherited land and back taxes.
