- About 14% of the county is in the Pinelands; the Delaware Bay shore and Maurice River corridor fall under CAFRA.

- Farmland-assessed parcels can trigger rollback taxes when use changes.
What land do you buy in Cumberland County?
We buy farm fields, wooded acreage, and vacant lots across Vineland, Millville, Bridgeton, and the rural townships including Maurice River, Commercial, and Deerfield. Whether your land is tillable, wooded, or marsh-edge near the bay, we are interested.
What about farmland assessment and rollback taxes?
A lot of Cumberland land is farmland-assessed. Selling or changing the use can trigger rollback taxes for the current year and the two prior years. A buyer who keeps the land in agriculture may avoid triggering it. We explain how this works on our farmland rollback taxes page.
How do the Pinelands and CAFRA fit in?
The Pinelands reach into the eastern part of the county, and the Delaware Bay shore and Maurice River area fall under CAFRA. Each adds rules that affect what can be built. We factor those in when we look at your parcel. See the Pinelands guide.
Towns and areas we buy in
We buy across Cumberland County, from the cities of Vineland, Millville, and Bridgeton to the rural and bay townships: Maurice River, Commercial, Deerfield, Upper Deerfield, Fairfield, Lawrence, Hopewell, Downe, Greenwich, and Stow Creek. Tillable fields, woodlots, and marsh-edge ground along the Delaware Bay all count.
Common Cumberland County land situations
This is farm country, so farm-assessed land and rollback questions come up often, along with inherited farm ground, parcels behind on taxes, and bay-area wetlands. We also buy commercial land.
