Gibbsboro, Camden County
Gibbsboro is a small borough of about 2,200 people and roughly 800 homes, bordered only by Lindenwold and Voorhees Township. No interstate, U.S., or state highway crosses it; County Route 561 is the main road. The borough was formed from Voorhees in 1924 and is named for the Gibbs family, who settled here in 1706. Gibbsboro's history as a paint-manufacturing town still shapes property here through an ongoing federal Superfund cleanup.
The Sherwin-Williams/Hilliards Creek Superfund site covers a former paint plant and Hilliards Creek, which flows into Kirkwood Lake. EPA found lead and arsenic in soil and sediment and in 2015 selected soil removal for about 33 residential properties, with 55 sampled. Sampling results and cleanup status can come up with buyers. We buy Gibbsboro homes as-is.
EPA treats the former plant, the Route 561 Dump, and the United States Avenue Burn site as sources of contamination that reached homes in Gibbsboro and Voorhees. Each has its own cleanup plan, and the plant-area plan includes deed notices. A buyer's attorney will ask about these. We review the record with you and still make a cash offer.
With no state or U.S. highways, Gibbsboro's roughly 17 miles of streets are maintained by the borough and Camden County, and County Route 561 carries most through traffic. The borough has few homes and few sales in a year, which can leave appraisers short of comparables. Our cash purchase does not rely on an appraisal.

Questions from Gibbsboro sellers
Yes. Being part of the sampling or cleanup does not prevent a sale; disclose what you know and we will factor it into a cash offer for the house as it is.
A financed buyer's attorney or lender may ask for sampling results or cleanup status. We buy for cash and review the public EPA record ourselves, so that step does not hold up the sale.
In New Jersey, an inherited house is sold through the estate, so the executor or court-appointed administrator signs the sale. We talk with each heir separately and privately, so no one has to negotiate as a group, and we'll walk you through getting an administrator appointed if that hasn't happened yet.
Thirty days is typical, and clean files can move faster. If you need more time, we'll write the date you want into the contract.
