New Jersey Property Tax Appeals Attorneys

The manner and means for assessing property taxes in New Jersey is governed by Article VIII, Section 1, paragraph 1 of the New Jersey Constitution and the implementing legislation found in N.J.S.A. 54:4-1 et seq. New Jersey tax payers have a right to file a property tax appeal on the assessment of their residential or commerical realestate.

In today's economy, every dollar is important and the amount you pay on property taxes can have a huge impact on your finances. Property value is measured by the true value or market value. In other words, property taxes are assessed by what a knowledgeable buyer would pay a willing, knowledgeable seller on the open market at a bona fide sale as of the statutory October 1 pretax year assessment date. When the real estate market took a dive a few years ago property values dramatically decreased, but local governments are of course reluctant to voluntarily decrease the amount of taxes lobbied on a particular property.

For New Jersey Property Tax Appeals to be processed forms, evidences and other pivotal evidence must be presented before the County Board of Taxation for evaluation.
