Visiting and revisiting the property tax issue has become a pet peeve of mine for many reasons:
- Property taxes are too high
- Cities, towns, and states rely to heavily on property taxes so there is no incentives to lower property taxes
- As a result of the property taxes being thought of as an open check, there is a lot of governmental overspending and abuse of monetary privileges.
To add insult to injury on this issue, I found an article today that states that here in Indiana farmers, as well as, homeowners are not getting the anticipated tax relief that the tax cap hope to create due to increases in the assessed value.
I am sorry, an increase in assessed value in a real estate market where a seller can not get what he or she paid just two years ago on a home.
Readers the only way to eliminate this hog wash is to file your property tax appeals. Here is some helpful links below that will help with that:
