Dating back to the 1970s, the flip tax — also known as a transfer fee — has been a popular and relatively painless way for New York City co-op boards to replenish their reserve funds while avoiding assessments and maintenance hikes. By requiring apartment sellers to cough up a portion of the sale price, usually from 1% to 3%, the flip tax has become a vital source of financial stability for co-ops. The practice was challenged in the courts in the 1980s, resulting in a ruling that co-op boards could impose a flip tax only if one were authorized in the original offering plan or had been permitted through an amendment to the proprietary lease. Furthermore, the courts ruled, all flip taxes had to be imposed equally. Today, four decades later, flip taxes are still a source of contention.

New Jersey Assembly Bill A3772, approved on July 10, 2024, significantly changes the foreclosure process for holders of tax sale certificates. This new legislation enables property owners to protect any equity that exceeds the amount needed to redeem the tax sale certificate. The bill seeks to create a fairer balance between lienholders and property owners, allowing owners a better chance to retain their property’s value. This is a substantial change, impacting property rights and the foreclosure process in New Jersey. https://lnkd.in/equNBHh7 #NJLegislation #PropertyRights #Foreclosure #TaxLien #NewJersey #HomeownersRights
