Tax appeals for Paterson

I have spent the first quarter of this year trying to help residents of Paterson battle the horrendous tax assessments that drove their real estate taxes to sky rocket.  I want every resident of Paterson to first understand that their taxes were not just increases by the town or the Mayor, but in fact your taxes were increased because your home was OVER ASSESSED.  When you file for a tax appeal, you don't want to tell the committee about the people that live around you or that the roads are in bad condition ( they will only ignore you).  Instead, you have to show proof, which comes from the comparable solds in your area.  Once you have the comparable solds in your area, you must fill out the application and take all the items (application, comparables, and a $25 check) to 435 Hamburg Turnpike, Wayne, NJ 07470.  After you do that, you will get a notice in the mail telling you when your appointment to go before the board and explain your case will be.  You can get an application at your local city hall or you can come to my office in 914 Madison Ave, Paterson, NJ 07501 and we still have some available for whoever needs them.  Also, the last date to file the application is in April 1.  So you're running out of time.  Any questions, don't hesitate to ask me.
