Remember-they did not raise the tax rate! No, they only adjusted the assesments!

My taxes went up $3000 this year alone...funny , the level of service didn't improve and the snow still took two days to be removed from my street !

I guess that's the beauty of Homestead exemption in FL. The assessed value cannot increase more than 3% per year...Of course, that doesn't mean chit as far as the tax rate goes, but it still helps avoid most big surprises like this.

My parents changed their residency last year from PA to FL just for that reason. Real estate on Hutchinson Island is taking off and they wanted to lock in while they could. Wish we had that here in NJ.

Last year, mine went up about 45% on the beach in belmar, nj. MV you said it right about the waterfront property in NJ. Yes, i realize that my property increased in value above the mean in crease in town, but dammit, it sucks to be paying more. I wont realize my extra value till i sell it......

My second home in the Keys, obviously not Homestead protected, went up 90%!!!!!

Insurance for windstorm also increased by 80% because of re-valuation and value increase!!!!!!!!!

where will it stop????????????

Sure, just like my insurance rates go down as my vehicles depreciate.
