‘a ne. } HOPE TO INCREASE REALTY TAX ROLLS BY $2,000,000 000 Can Easily Be Done if As- sessors Are Guided by Rental Increases, ‘to KBEP TAX RATE LOW. Mayor’s Committee, Records Show Whete Exorbitant Rents Are Raised. Geventy deputy tax assessors “are at work in theirsvarious districts making up the tax rolls of real estate for 1921, which must show at least $2,000,000,000 greater value than ever before in the city’s history if Mayor Hylan’s hope of raising the necessary additional revenue for 1921 is to be accomplished without raising the tak, rate. Tt is up to these seventy men to Nx the assessed values evenly and fairly? When the tax books are thrown open to the public on Oct. 1 the figures will be open to attacks by owners who claim to be @acriminated against. It is almost certain that there will be a multitu@e of such complaints this year. ; *On*the one hand, some landlords who have raised rentals and find their nsseksod values lifted accordingly will be found trying to have their values} “equalized” with properties which ap- parently are sirailar, yet In which the landlords are not receiving such high rents. ASSESSORS SURE TO HEAR COM- PLAINTS FROM LANDLORDS, On the other hand, landlords who | have not taken advantage of the | < housing shortage to boost rents to the | highest possible figure will complain and justly, 4 their assessed values are raised to justify the higher values placed on the properties of those who | have made tremendous increases in | rentals. These “good” tanflords will. com- plain that the assessment is uneqtal, not because the prop are dls- similar in location or physical con- dition, but because the differeuce in | rentals makes them different in mar- | két value based upon !ncome How the courts will regard various pleas remains to be s puty tax ass the duty of fairly prope: themselves of thetr values im accordanc figueés of value whi andiords admit by es' NY rental scales n the files of n Rent cipal Cowrt : of the rental alue w thousands of landlords have put upon thelr propert cords should make good evidence to support the valu-| ations wet by the deputy wessors, if they a 1921 yalue dn proportion to inere: rentals since the 1920 tax v * fixed Vor instance Tenant at.
