We’ve had several posts about property taxes this year (rates, amounts, high/low etc). With those in mind (of course) the folks over Howmuch.net said it best in a recent post about property taxes, and it’s one that is often overlooked (or ignored) by policymakers – especially when they look for additional sources of revenue:
“Even if you rent instead of own, property tax still is an important component of your housing cost. Your landlord will take the tax on his house – your home – into account to calculate your rent. So either way, real-estate tax is a factor in your cost of living well worth considering.”
Happy Friday….
