N.J. Ct. R. 4:94-2
Complaint; Supporting Affidavits; Notice
The complaint shall state the age and residence of the ward, a description of the property proposed to be sold or otherwise disposed of, a statement of the encumbrances, if any, thereon, and the reasons why the sale or other disposition would be in the ward's best interests. The complaint shall be verified by affidavit made pursuant to R. 1:6-6 and have annexed thereto affidavits of at least two persons, stating the situation, assessed value, if any, and fair market value of the property proposed to be sold or otherwise disposed of, and if real estate, of each separate lot or parcel. If the property is real estate located in New Jersey, the affidavits shall be made by a certified real estate appraiser or licensed real estate appraiser as defined by N.J.S.A. 45:14F-5 and -6, respectively, and required by N.J.S.A. 45:14F-21(c). If the real estate is located outside this state, the affidavits shall be made by a real estate appraiser certified or licensed by the jurisdiction in which the property is located if that jurisdiction has a certification or licensing requirement. If the minor or mentally incapacitated person owns a fractional portion of real estate having a value not in excess of $10,000 as shown by one affidavit, the court may dispense with the requirement of a second affidavit as to value. Unless the court otherwise orders, no notice of the action need be given to the ward.
