estimate of value in the cost approach. In the absence of vacant land sales a land abstraction
methodology may be used to isolate the land and improvement values.
The Company shall collect and analyze all fair market sales that occurred during the three (3)
years prior to the revaluation date in order to develop the market data approach. The
Company shall prepare a sample format to be approved by the Borough Tax Assessor that
will be used in this approach to value. The identification of market trends is important and a
paired sales analysis is to be used to determine and document such trends. Analysis shall
include sales ratio studies and development of general, segmented, and stratified coefficients
of deviation and other such spreadsheet analysis deemed appropriate.
A certified letter, return requested, explaining the reasons for inspection shall be sent to all
property owners that have refused the Company permission to inspect their property. A
second regular letter shall be sent to those properties that were not inspected after three
attempts to contact said owners. This is at the expense of the Company. Documentation is
required to support the accomplishment of the entry inspection report.
The cost conversion factor shall be documented through market studies and shall be
substantiated by written documentation. Use of the fmal cost factor shall be made only after
approval by the Borough Tax Assessor.
Physical, functional and economic depreciation and/or appreciation observed by any data
collector must be recorded separately on the data file and explained in writing for each
property. The final net condition is to be reflected in the improvement calculation. The
concept of effective age shall be used.

30

A booklet of usable sales shall be developed by the Company and original copy provided to
the Borough Tax Assessor for the hearings and in support of value used. This booklet shall
be provided for sales for a two-year period. At least one staff member of the Company that
was responsible for establishing value shall be in attendance at each informal hearing.
New digital photographs will be taken by the Company for all improved properties. Said
photographs shall be properly and correctly identified using a digital, color camera and shall
be prepared using equipment that allows for the inclusion of the date on each photograph.
Photographs shall be attached to the MODIV and CAMA files for each property.
Additionally residential or commercial structures on the same parcel shall be separately
photographed.
22. Commercial, Industrial and Apartment Valuations
For the appraisal of commercial, industrial and apartment properties, the Third Edition of
the New Jersey Real Property Appraisal Manual shall be utilized when finalizing the
value using the cost approach. A folder to create a Cost Sheet, sketch of the building, site
plan, and income approach shall be required for all Class 4 properties, where applicable.
The Company shall collect and analyze fair market sales that occurred during the three
(3) years prior to the revaluation date to develop the market approach to value. The
Company shall prepare a sample format to be approved by the Borough Tax Assessor that
will be used in this approach to value. The identification of market trends is important
and a paired sales analysis is to be used to determine and document such trends. Analysis
shall include sales ratio studies and the development of general, segmented, and stratified
coefficients of deviation and other such statistical methods as considered appropriate.
A valuation utilizing the cost, market, and income approaches to value is to be generated
for each property where applicable.
All properties that are experiencing an income or are potential income-producing
properties shall have a written report outlining the factors used to develop the income
approach valuation. The Company shall request income and expense statements on all
class four (4) properties by certified mail, return receipt requested, pursuant to N.J.S.A
54:4-34 over the Borough Tax Assessor's signature. Mailing costs for these requests
shall be at the Company's expense.
The Company shall analyze the local market place to derive economic rates, rentals, and
expenses in order to arrive at a supportable indication of value. The Company can make
use of prior income and expense information received by the Borough Tax Assessor to
conclude this analysis which must be documented for future reference.
The Company shall analyze all income and expense statements received and investigate
lease and rentals for the purpose of establishing economic rents and gross rent
multipliers, when applicable.
Capitalization rates to be used for the income approach to value must be obtained from
the market, documented, and provided to the Borough Tax Assessor for review. An
unloaded simple band on investment capitalization rate shall be derived for the purposes
of developing an estimate of value on all income producing properties.

31

Site improvements such as fencing, lighting, and paving are to be valued as accessory
items.
Depreciation factors shall be determined through market studies and shall be
substantiated by written documentation. Physical, functional, and economic depreciation
and/or appreciation observed by a valuator must be recorded separately on the data file
and explained in writing for each property when applicable. The final net condition is to
be reflected in any calculations.
Documentation of sales, capitalization rates, and related information is to be filed under a
separate report as approved by the Borough Tax Assessor.
23. Land and Sales Mapping
During the course of this project, the Company shall prepare a land value sales map to be
transmitted to the Borough Tax Assessor upon completion of this project for his/her
future use.
The land value and sales map shall include the boundaries for each land use zone, the
boundaries for each neighborhood control sector and the base land value rate to be
applied for said control sector. This map shall also identify, by color-coding any
properties which have sold between three (3) years and the completion date of this
contract as an arms-length transaction, the date of the sale and the sale price. A
comparable sales booklet as described herein shall be part of this analysis also.
24. Property Owner Notification and Review

A letter by the Company the wording of which shall be approved by the Borough Tax
Assessor shall be mailed to all taxpayers as specified in the revaluation compliance work
plan which is a part of this agreement.
Upon determination of property values the Company shall, at its own expense, notify
each property owner of said valuation. Assessment notices shall not be sent out prior to
November 6, 2015. This notice shall also advise the property owner of his/her right to
attend an individual informal review of the valuation at a designated location within the
Borough of Roselle Park. The Company shall schedule sufficient time to fully
review and discuss the valuation with qualified Company personnel so as to complete
informal reviews no later than December 4, 2015.
Upon completion of informal reviews, a written record of each hearing held shall be
provided to the Borough Tax Assessor for his/her review. Revisions resulting from
taxpayer reviews shall only be made with the consent of the Borough Tax Assessor.
Each property owner shall be informed, in writing by the Company of the results of their
valuation review in writing within three (3) weeks of the conclusion of all reviews.
25. Records and Computations to Become Property of Borough of Roselle Park
Upon conclusion of all property owner reviews and acceptable revisions, the Company
shall meet with the Tax Assessor to finalize all aspects of this project. The purpose of
this meeting shall be to transmit to the custody of the Tax Assessor the original of all
records and computations of the Company pertaining to any appraisal of property in the
Borough of Roselle Park if not previously requested and received. No material

26. Defense of Values


The Company shall assist the Borough Tax Assessor and the Borough of R o s e II e
Park in defending all valuations rendered that may be appealed to the Union County

With respect to properties which may have valuations appealed to the Tax Court of New
Jersey, the Company has attached a schedule of fees to be charged to prepare reports and
appear in Tax Court to defend these appeals (Appendix F). Said fee schedule shall be
predicated on the class of the property under appeal as well as the time involved and
complexity of the appraisal assignment. The fee schedule shall include an hourly fee for
appearances, as well as fees for the preparation of reports, as necessary. The Borough of
Roselle Park reserves the right to accept in whole or in part the fee schedule attached to
this contract as Appendix F, or to contract with another party for these services. Should
the Borough of Roselle Park elect to accept the Company as the Company for these
services, the Company shall assist the Borough Tax Assessor and the Borough of Roselle
Park to defend all valuation appealed during the tax year the values are first established,
2016, pursuant to the fee schedule. Such assistance shall include qualified expert
witnesses holding a commercial level designation of a State Certified General Appraisal
license in New Jersey who is acceptable to the Borough Tax Assessor and who is
knowledgeable with and shall have inspected the property subject to appeal. Should the
Borough of Roselle Park elect to contract with another party for these Appraisal
services the Borough agrees to release the Company from any further responsibility to
defend valuations before the Tax Court of New Jersey for those items so selected to be
contracted with another party.

Informal communication failed to reach a settlement of our monetary

ACCOUNTANT'S REVIEW REPORT


To the Partners
Realty Appraisal Company
I have reviewed the accompanying balance sheetof Realty Appraisal Company (a partnership) as
of December 31, 2013, and the related statements of operations, partners' capital, and cash flows
for the year then ended. A review includes primarily applying analytical procedures to
management's financial data and making inquiries of management. A review is substantially less
in scope than an audit, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial
statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, I do not express such an opinion.
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and for
designing, implementing, and maintaining internal control relevant to the preparation and fair
presentation of the financial statements.
My responsibility is to conduct the review in accordance with Statements on Standards for
Accounting and Review Services issued by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants.
Those standards require me to perform procedures to obtain limited assurance that there are no
material modifications that should be made to the financial statements. I believe that the results of
my procedures provide a reasonable basis for my report.
Based on my review, I am not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the
accompanying financial statements in order for them to be in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America.

Income Taxes: The Company operates as a partnership and pays no federal or state
income taxes. The taxable income earned by the partnership is reported by each partner in

To the Partners
Realty Appraisal Company
I have reviewed the accompanying balance sheet of Realty Appraisal Company (a partnership) as
of December 31, 2012, and the related statements of operations, partners' capital, and cash flows
for the year then ended. A review includes primarily applying analytical procedures to
management's financial data and making inquiries of management. A review is substantially less
in scope than an audit, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial
statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, I do not express such an opinion.
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and for
designing, implementing, and maintaining internal control relevant to the preparation and fair
presentation of the financial statements.
My responsibility is to conduct the review in accordance with Statements on Standards for
Accounting and Review Services issued by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants.
Those standards require me to perform procedures to obtain limited assurance that there are no
material modifications that should be made to the financial statements. I believe that the results of
my procedures provide a reasonable basis for my report.
Based on my review, I am not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the
accompanying financial statements in order for them to be in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America.

Quality Assurance

There are basic steps that most revaluation companies take to comply with the Division of
Taxation requirements. The following are some of the quality control steps that we take
which are not included in the basic requirements:

Office Staff

* Checks every line item in the tax list with the tax map to verify
address and lot size, and to be sure every lot is accounted for.

* Overlay the zoning districts on the land value map.


*Verify every recent property sale from county documents (SR1A)
for usability and transaction names.
* Match every notice of valuation letter at end of reveal with the
property record card to confirm correct value.

Public Relations

Realty Appraisal Company employs a comprehensive public relations


program aimed at educating the public as to the revaluation process.
Utilizing a series of direct mail contacts with property owners as well as
public announcements in local newspapers and websites, the education
program keeps the public well informed during each stage of the revaluation
process.
The goal of the education program is threefold. First, it is meant to reduce
public anxiety by dispelling myths and misconceptions regarding the
revaluation process and its impact on property taxes. Second, it is designed
to anticipate the public's questions and concerns so as to reduce the strain
on local tax assessor's offices caused by large numbers of inquiries. Third, it
is presented in a manner that removes any onus for the revaluation program
from the local governing body.
In coordination with local officials, Realty Appraisal Company can become
the public face of the revaluation program by meeting with the public,
mailing educational brochures and addressing any questions or concerns.
Experience shows that a revaluation program is most successful when the
public is regularly updated and informed during the entire process.
Realty Appraisal Company's goal is to execute a revaluation program that is
fair, accurate and most importantly, accepted by the public.

'informing 'local news sources of th'e.pending '
revaluation program: In turn, local daily and
weekly newspapers are a powerful tool in
aiding public awareness.

SOUTH AMBOY REVALUATION TO START


A complete revaluation program of all property in the City of South Amboy,
which is designed to provide uniformity and equality in the distribution of the
local tax burden based upon appraisals at fair market value, is scheduled to
begin within the next few weeks. The revaluation program is required to reflect
the changes in market value which have occurred in the City since the last
revaluation. State law requires that all real estate be assessed at current market
value which is defined as
the price a property would sell when the buyer and seller are both acting
voluntarily.
The City was ordered to conduct the revaluation program by the Middlesex
County Board of Taxation.
In order to comply with this directive, the City has engaged the firm ofRealty
Appraisal Company ofWestNewYork, New Jersey, afirmhighlyskilledinmass
appraisal techniques, with fifty years ofexperience, to perform the revaluation. In
order to conduct the program, it will be necessary for the firm's personnel to make
complete interior and exterior inspection of each property. Further, in the case
of income-producing real property, it will be necessary for the firm to gather
data
regarding income and expense, as well as other pertinent information.
Prior to the results of the revaluation being accepted by the City, each and
every property owner will receive a notice of the value determined by the firm
for their property. The firm will then conduct complete and informal reviews
of the values determined with any taxpayer so desiring a hearing. A time
and place will be set aside for such hearings. For protection, each authorized
representative of the Realty Appraisal Company has been provided with a
letter of identification bearing his or her photo and signature. The appraisal
company cautions all property owners to be sure to ask for this identification.
Each property owner should not permit anyone who is not able to properly
identify himself or herself to enter upon the premises.

Dear Property Owner:


.~.

,I

The Borough of Glen Ridge was ordered by the Essex County


Board of Taxation to revalue all property and establish current
market value as its basis for tax assessments. Accordingly,
Glen Ridge engaged our firm to conduct an independent
revaluation of all property in the Borough.
The appraisal of your property to reflect current market value as
of October 1, 2007 is:
$395,800.
This value will be used for assessment purposes beginning in the
year 2008. Since new appraisals have been made to reflect
current market values, the tax rate required to raise the
necessary revenue to support this year's county, school and
municipal budgets will be SUBSTANTIALLY REDUCED. Therefore, an
increase in your assessment DOES NOT NECESSARILY mean an increase
in your tax bill. There are currently unknown factors that will
affect the 2008 budget, and therefore the 2008 tax rate cannot be
calculated at this time.
We suggest that you compare the above value with your mm
estimate of your property's present market value.
If you desire,
our representative will be glad to discuss your appraisal with
you, and review any additional information you may have. To
arrange for a convenient appointment, please call our office at
(201) 867-3179 from 9:30a.m. to noon, or 1:00 p.m. to 4:00p.m.
on Wednesday, Feb 27th, Thursday, Feb 28th or Friday, Feb 29th.
These one-on-one conferences will be held at the Municipal Bldg,
825 Bloomfield Avenue, Glen Ridge, New Jersey. Residents are
urged to take advantage of this informal review process. We ask
only that you be prompt and that you bring this letter with you
to identify your property. Once the informal reviews have been
completed, the new assessments will be available at
www.realtyappraisal.net. Please refer to the enclosed pamphlet
for some commonly asked questions.
Sincerely,

Dear Property Owner:


The Borough of Maywood was ordered by the Bergen County Board of
Taxation to revalue all property and establish current market
value as their basis for tax assessments. Accordingly, Maywood
engaged our firm to conduct an independent revaluation of all
property in the Borough.
The appraisal of your property to reflect current market value
as of October 1, 2007, is
$142, 600.
This value will be used for assessment purposes beginning in
the year 2008. An increase in the assessed value of your
property does not necessarily mean your taxes will go up
because after a revaluation has been completed, a new tax rate
is also established. Using the 2007 budget and the new values,
the tax rate for 2007 would have been approximately $1.77 per
$100 of assessment as compared with the actual rate of $4.13.
The following is an illustration of a house that was assessed
at $179,500 has now been appraised for $418,500:
Old Assessment
New Assessment

$179,500
$418,500

Rate $4.13
Rate $1.77

Taxes $7,413
Taxes $7,407

The above example is for illustration only and refers to 2007,


since the 2008 budget and tax rates have not yet been adopted.
If you desire, our representative will be glad to discuss your
appraisal with you. To arrange for an appointment, please call
(201) 867-3179 from 9:30 a.m. to noon, or 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m.
on Thurs., January 3rd, Fri., January 4th or Mon., January 7th.
Your conference will be held at the Maywood Public Library,
459 Maywood Avenue. We ask only that you be prompt and that you
BRING THIS LETTER WITH YOU to identify your property. Please
see the enclosed pamphlet for some commonly asked questions.

STATEMENTS BY OWNERS OF
INCOME PRODUCING PROPERTIES

..

,[

II

Chapter 91, Laws of 1979, approved by Governor Byrne on May 16, 1979,
amends N.J.S.A 54:4-34 by adding more stringent requirements concerning the
statement which owners of income producing properties must furnish the tax assessor,
especially where appeals are filed by such owners.
N.J.S.A 54:4-34, with amendments and additions appearing in italics, now
reads as follows:
54:4-34 Every owner of real property of the taxing district shall, on written
request of the assessor, made by certified mail, render a full and true account of his
name and real property and the income therefrom, in the case of income-producing
property, and produce his title papers, and he may be examined on oath by the
assessor, and if he shall fail or refuse to respond to the written request of the assessor
within 45 days of such request, or to testify on oath when required, or shall render
a false or fraudulent account, the assessor shall value his property at such amount
as he may, from any information in his possession or available to him, reasonably
determine to be the full and fair value thereof. No appeal shall be heard from the
assessor's valuation and assessment with respect to income-producing property where the
owner has failed or refused to respond to such written request for information with 45
days of such request or to testify on oath when required, or shall have rendered a false or
fraudulent account. The county board of taxation may impose such terms and conditions
for furnishing the requested information where it appears that the owner, for good cause
shown, could not furnish the information within the required period of time. In making
such written request for information pursuant to this section the assessor shall enclose
therewith a copy of this section.
