I may be wading into quicksand on this one, but are folks opposed to
paying more property taxes if a home actually does increase in value?
It seems many neighborhoods are working to increase property values and,
when they do increase on account of neighborhood efforts, shouldn't the
corresponding responsibility be to pay more in taxes because of that
increased value?
It's always very interesting. I think we should pay property taxes based on the value of our homes. If the value goes up then we should pay. Of course, then we sit around and complain about our high taxes (and I do that too). However, if we decide to sell, then it becomes a blessing instead of a curse!!!
