What Hopewell sellers
should know

Most homes here date from the 1970s or earlier
Hopewell's comprehensive plan says nearly 80% of the city's homes were built in the 1970s or earlier, and that these houses need more upkeep, including plumbing, roofs and heating and cooling systems. Expect buyers and inspectors to look closely at those systems, and gather any repair records you have.

Renters and Fort Lee shape local demand
The same plan says renters occupy roughly half of Hopewell's occupied homes and that military installations such as Fort Lee draw short-term residents. It also calls for attracting home buyers from Fort Lee. If your house could suit either a landlord or a military household, keep both in mind when you plan marketing and timing.

Elderly and disabled relief is filed each April
The Commissioner of the Revenue runs Hopewell's real estate tax relief for owners who are 65 or older or permanently disabled on January 1, with household income of no more than $32,500 and net worth of no more than $100,000. Applications are due by April 1 each year, so ask the office how a sale affects relief already granted.

Frequently asked questions
How fast can you close in Hopewell?
When a cash sale is the right fit, we can close in as little as 7 days, or on the date you choose. Listing with an agent usually takes longer: Hopewell homes have recently sold in about 29 days, plus time to close.
Do you buy older homes that need work?
We'll look at any Hopewell home, including older houses that need repairs. The city's comprehensive plan says nearly 80% of Hopewell homes were built in the 1970s or earlier, and that aging plumbing, roofs and heating and air systems need repair or replacement over time, so some owners would rather sell as-is than fix up first.
What is the property tax in Hopewell?
The City of Hopewell set its real estate tax rate at $1.17 per $100 of assessed value for 2025, applied to that year's reassessment values. If you're 65 or older or permanently disabled, ask the Commissioner of the Revenue about tax relief; the application is due by April 1 each year.
