percent of the consideration or part thereof attributable to  the  resi-
dential  real  property.  Such tax shall be paid at the same time and in
the same manner as the tax imposed by section fourteen  hundred  two  of
this article.
  S  2. This act shall take effect on the first of April next succeeding
the date on which it shall have become a law.
