Reply to comment by moonlitway in If the property tax keeps rising the same way it did last year, is it time to leave JC? by moonlitway
Because they were already higher than what JC was paying, so a "5% hike" wasn't necessary. Now JC is paying closer to the rates they are now.

I’m saying it’s not reasonable to apply the same rate to JC because JC’s property value is already high. You think 30k property tax would be fair for a 1B condo?

$30K taxes on a 1B condo you say?

What’s the point you are making? The place you linked here is a 3M condo over 1000 sqft in nyc, yet its property tax is about 30k a year. That actually shows the ny property tax is lower than nj, because if you look at the same price of property in nj, the tax will be more than doubled more so around 60k

Relax. It's a joke.
But are seriously telling us your taxes on a 1B are about to be $30K annually, because something about that isn't right.
moonlitway OP t1_j5aqeuo wrote
it’s not 30k per year. I can’t afford living here if it’s 30k for 1B. It’s 12k but might be increasing again this year.

I think that's your problem for living in LUXURY HOUSING.

lol my building is by no means luxury. Don’t make false assumptions. the price got inflated during Covid. If you enjoy higher property tax, good for you and I’m sure you’ll be happy as you see tax keeps increasing in the next few years.

Don’t feed the trolls. They aren’t educated enough to know that the point of taxation is how much money is brought in and not the percentage of property value being taxed.

yea they don’t get the point and even begin to claim I live in luxury housing lmao. Luxury buildings have tax abatements and pay lower tax than I do.

I'm fine with it. I'm in a rent-controlled building that I've been living in since the 80s. Y'all can deuce right on out.
