NOW IS THE TIME TO:
Make plans to appeal your property taxes in December by assembling all of your receipts and appearing before the City Assessors in February. This is the primary method on lowering and getting affair rate on your property. Property taxes are determined by the aggregate value of property in your neighborhood. In some cases your taxes may increase even though you purchased the property in a auction of foreclosure. Regardless of that, we strongly encourage you to purchase property in our district.
