Since property tax laws vary by state, Tax Talk will be presented on a state-by-state basis, keyed to the 25 markets in the GlobeSt.com coverage area. Each article will be authored by an APTC member attorney and offer an analyses of critical tax issues and trends on a local basis.

"Property taxes are one of the largest expense items on any real estate company's operating statement," states APTC president John E. Garippa. "However, little emphasis has been given to controlling that expense and increasing net asset and portfolio value. The APTC was formed to focus on the reduction of property taxes." Garippa, who is also president of the Montclair, NJ-based law firm Garippa, Lotz & Giannuario, is the author of the Tax Talk item that appears currently on GlobeSt.com's New Jersey page.

"In addition to providing the industry with the hottest news on a daily basis, we are constantly expanding our informational services," says editorial director Michael G. Desiato. "The monthly Tax Talk articles from the APTC is just the latest example of that ever-expanding service."
