$1000 is peanuts to pay in taxes, not that it makes it right. I know plenty of people who pay in real estate taxes as much as the Schachner's mortgage.

I live in a ~400K home in Northern Jersey...about 8500/year in taxes.

My best friend lives in a 880K (now worth about 1.2 million) house in Ringwood NJ and pays about 22k a year in property taxes. No sewers, no streetlights, just garbage pick-up.

All my money goes to the "disadvantaged children" in Newark, all his money goes to the "disadvantaged children" in Paterson.
