Property Tax Assesments and Home Values
We have written here about the changes in Cincinnati’s property values over the last two years. A part of the real estate downturn that is being overlooked is the assessments for property taxes. Locally we have seen our home value decline between 5% and 11% depending on where we live but it has not been as bad as California. Their property value has declined so much that there is now a company that will help homeowners obtain a break on their property tax reasons.
Prop8.org takes advantage of a California proposition that allows for homeowners to get a reduction in their property taxes. Prop8.org charges a fee to help homeowners navigate the legal paperwork, and submit the necessary papers. We do not have this luxury in Cincinnati but it is important that the next time your property is assessed that you pay attention and gather the recent sale data for your neighborhood so you understand you new property assessment.
