I personally am so sick of the media reporting prices increases every day on food, cars, housing, etc.... and guess what?
We/you/I can't do a dam thing about it except to find a way to cut expenses to get by. :rant-rave:

Now what did I do with my high blood pressure meds.
Plenty can be done about it, however I can’t be specific on this forums!

I’m waiting … for the prices to come down … like our property taxes, the market value is down, how much will our property taxes be down?

Are property values down?

You'll be able to see any changes when your TRIM notice comes out towards the end of the month.

The governor is currently working on getting our property taxes removed. Unfortunately the plan calls for taxing the snot out of businesses.

As far as current taxing structure, what politician in his or her right mind would decrease the tax base? I think we all know there will never be a day when the county will decrease the value of your home so they can collect less taxes. Sure, our homes are worth less than 3 years ago, but don’t count on a refund check.

Most prescription drugs come from China and we haven't gotten a TARIFF deal with them yet, so those drug prices will INCREASE.

In the past five years the market value of my home has increased three times and decreased two times. I expect it may decrease again this year. So yes, the county *HAS* decreased the value of my home.

Yes, so they increase the mill rate, you know, just to make sure they don’t get less revenue…

Nope. One of the years my market value decreased was the only year during that period that the millage rate decreased as well. Every other year the rate stayed the same to two decimal places.

My property tax (no matter how they calculate it) has never gone down since I bought the house 2019. You must be lucky.
