Tax Relief

QVCkitty1 · ‎05-23-2015

I just brought my mail in, and I saw a mailing from the state dept. of taxion. As a confirmed nervous Nellie, I was sure it was not good news. To my relief it was a nice check for property tax relief because my school district complied with the property tax cap. It was tax relief in more ways than one. LOL.

@Annabellethecat66, thanks, it's not a big deal in the grand scheme of things, but it's always nice to get a check.

I wish I could say the same; no tax relief my way at all.

Received my check couple of months ago - not huge but I'll take it.........mailbox fear to see return address ....fear walking back to house...fear as you open and then WOOO YEA YEA!

Now the first of Sept school tax bill donkey is comes. Don't think this one is going to be kind to me; but a possible refund next year.

Our new next door neighbor is very upset that his property tax bill is way higher than the previous owner. Well, first of all , the value of the home increased significantly since the height of the recession in 2010 when it was originally sold, & her taxes were based on the original assessment,also, previous owner was a full time resident who got homestead relief, but the current owners are snow birds. He called my DH to complain and when my DH explained this to him he was not very happy. Shouldn't his realtor have told him what his taxes would be? I thought that was a standard thing they do.

If I'm the buyer I certainly would 'ask' even if the Realtor didn't state it. And.......at the closing (depending on the time of year) the seller usually gets back some of the $ he has already paid for taxes for the upcoming year. Apparently your neighbor was asleep at the wheel during the transaction!
