Paying Too Much In Property Taxes?

11-20-09
Dave Edwards

Are you paying too much in property taxes? Recently, property owners should have received their tax bill from the county.

Look at it carefully!! Are you paying a 6% or 4% rate? Investment property is taxed at 6% and primary residences at 4%. However, the county assumes all property is investment property unless you have informed them that it is your primary residence.

My office recently went through the tax records on 8 subdivisions that total about 800 homes. Approximately 15% of them were being taxed as investment properties. We sent letters to the homeowners telling them to check into this discrepency. One homeowner called to thank me because they were going to be able to receive back approximately $1,500 for overpayment of taxes. Be sure to check!!
