Holy shit property taxes plz

submitted by NoRefunds to AskUpgoat 11 monthsMay 29, 2024 19:26:30 ago (+18/-0)     (AskUpgoat)

So the fucking assessor has raised our property tax 8% each year so far that we've owned this house (3 years)

Started at $1400 and is now $4900.

Apparently they can charge you based on your CURRENT sale value??? Wtf I always thought this shit was fixed from what you paid for it, not from whatever the fuck the "market" does?

We bought our house at $187 /sq ft and a $35k lot premium and now the fucking houses up the street are going for $325 sq ft + $500k lot premium!!

Our God dam taxes are going to cost more than our mortgage in two years if they raise it by the same again.

Any advice for mitigating property taxes?

Contest the “assessment”, meaning you don’t believe you property is worth the “market value”, many counties have a form for such purpose. If you can’t find it online, call the assessors office to get one
