@@issenvan1050 Found the ABC news report. Deception as usually from lame stream media. Reports 'some, several states are looking to eliminate property taxes.' Truth is several are looking at increase caps (calling that eliminating property taxes). Only 2 states Idaho and Michigan are 'considering' eliminating property tax - which means 1 or more legislators made a wild statement or small study to get votes.
And here is what is totally wrong in reassessing my home value. When you get down to it, my home is worth what someone is willing to pay for it. Do they have a crystal ball that tells them what someone will buy it for? What if it's totally outdated on the interior or in very bad disrepair? They have no way of knowing that. Alls, they know for sure is what I paid for it on the day I bought it. Reassessment should only happen when a property is sold.
People who complain about property taxes need to organize in their area and do something about it. If you really want things to change for the better. Sitting on the sidelines and complaining about it doesn't solve anything for anybody. It's time to start demanding to get rid of property taxes all together. Get in touch with your representatives start demanding they get rid of property taxes all together. We need to put pressure on them to change the laws to make it fair for everybody.
And income tax assures you don't own everything else. Want a change ... I mean a REAL change that YOU control ? ruclips.net/video/3rJMXNlo1oo/видео.html

From federal to local county jobs there are high paying positions that bring nothing of value to taxpayers. In Seattle for example, King County has a bathroom liaison that starts at $106,000 a year. The job description is basically to communicate with the people who clean bathrooms at park n rides. These are not restrooms available to anyone but bus drivers. A simple schedule would eliminate the liaison position. Eventually this liaison may have an assistant, then a clerk or QA position. The umbrella just expands to the point nobody really does anything but collect a check. The socialist expansion needs to stop and be wiped clean. They always claim they’re out of money

I'm sorry for responding here but all the other comments seem to share your viewpoint and I am the opposing viewpoint that people need to hear. Think about it for a second if land costs nothing to maintain we don't want the billionaires buy ALL OF THE LAND WITH NO TAXES SO THE PRICES RISE INFINITELY UNTIL LAND COSTS BILLIONS. The founding fathers thought we should tax land and not income because our income goes back into the economy and that was the idea. Imagine competing with George Soros and Bill gates to buy up the land because If I was a billionaire I would enter a bidding war with all the other billionaires to buy the entire country until there is nothing left. Its crazy that so many people will support removing property tax without putting in the most basic level of forethought into what would happen in a real world situation. Feel free to prove me wrong I believe in free speech and constructive criticism. I think these comments are ignorant and blue pilled into an emotional response before a logical one.

my property tax. melloroos, and association all amont to about 700 a month. It would be swell to move into a place that didn't have associations but every neighborhood in my city does as it used to be farmland and the housing is all less than 20 years old. unless you buy one of the very few remaining old farms (which are not in good shape). My association does next to nothing. In 10 years they've repainted the houses once and repaved the streets once. there are probably 500 houses in this association and they are all occupied. don't ask me where the money goes. totally mismanaged. So that said every month I break even. I don't eat out, I don't have cable or any services besides prime (which saves me money in the end due the free deliveries) i eat hamburger and rice for 3/4 of my meals.... and I break even. If I was not burning 700 a month, I might actually be able to save for my future. I cannot afford to live anywhere else, I can't seem to find a comperable job in another city. Man am I trying. feels bad. I have 2 degrees and 15 years experience in tech. I'm working 60 hours a week and im drowning because of taxes and fees. if i could actually bring home most of what i make. I'd have a future. and maybe something to eat besides hamburger.
Correct but through the constitution and via the devolution of powers your congress gives your local council authority to levy land taxes Now if you do away with property taxes who is going to pay to have your garbage collected and sewage system repaired and maintained

most of property tax goes to schools. what better example of communism is public education? you pay up to the grave. My father is 94 and is still paying school tax? This is ridiculous. I would agree to a freeze at a minimum at age 67 (full retirement age) or an outright exemption to paying school taxes st 67.

The worst is that the property tax and insurance will always go up while most seniors have fixed income. That means sooner or later seniors will have to sell their houses or lose their houses! What kind of country is it that a person works all his life and becomes homeless during senior years?

I know of too many retired couples who paid off their house but could no longer afford to live in their house due to their property taxes going through the roof. What a screwed up and evil system!
I bought a piece of property and I’m gonna be living in an RV to keep your tax as low to make sure my Social Security can handle the tax bill every month
Happened to me. My townhouse is paid off, but the property taxes are unaffordable. I had 2 cancers. I won't be able to work the rest of my life. Properly taxes are a huge upkeep. It sucks that I own my home, but I don't :c I worked hard. I just want a place to live.
My wife and I will be selling. On a fixed income we simply won’t be able to afford it. The home we love and have been living in for 40 years. A condominium retirement community is our only option. I suppose we should be grateful to have a roof over our heads. Sad , so sad.

@@manormyth Yes it's all theft of real ownership. I wish there was some real representatives in government who actually want to get rid of property taxes all together. I would vote for them in a heart beat if they were willing to get rid of property taxes. It would take such a huge burden off of people.
I've always thought property taxes were a joke. So you buy a house pay it off, you will never own it because you are quite literally renting it from the taxation authority. If you stop paying these theft property taxes, they will seize your home and sell it out from under you to recoup the taxes. The entire tax structure is misused and misguided into paying for other pet projects not intended therefore shorting the intended use causing those original taxes to be increased, rinse and repeat over and over again. This is in large part why the working class pays around 45% of their wages in total taxes. Your total taxes paid should be around 10%.
Yes think about how we pay taxes on income and then pay taxes on our property and sales tax on everything we buy. Property tax has a cap of $10k for deductions and sales tax should be deductible.
Also they give them self raises while the American people get cost of living increases, which only feed, things like insurances. The people can never get ahead, being manipulated, by the system. SS gets a raise, then they take, people snap benefits away. They need to update, all the agencies, to adjust to the actual, cost of living but that never happens. Housing is so high, that people who need rentals, cannot afford them. Section 8 housing is backed up 15 year, while elderly housing, is about the same. That’s how Massachusetts is.
That’s for sure, lots of hidden taxes, everywhere. They spread the taxes around, keep on creating more obstacles, to raises the prices on everything. Look at, air bags, they add thousands to the cost of cars, then your child has to have five car seats, before they turn 12. The registry is another scam, while I do not approve of drunk driving, who gave them the right, to decide penalties, I thought that’s what courts were for. People try to get their licenses back and it’s a runaround, more money, you have to this or that, which never seems to end.
This should be considered theft by local, State and Federal Government! Taxes make slaves out of hard working Americans, public schools should be funded by homeowners to educate THEIR children, NOT educating illegal refugees!
When this country became a country it was because we fought against taxes. We also had a RIGHT to own property. With property taxes, steals our RIGHT to own property. Not just house but our vehicles as well.
Very true. I took a course on American Constitution - the very reason of the Independence war was THE RIGHT TO BE A FREEMAN, THE RIGHT TO OWN A PROPERTY, THE RIGHT TO DEFEND YOURSELF & FORM AN INDEPENDENT MILITIA TO DEFEND YOUR COMMUNITY & COUNTRY, THE RIGHT TO PAY NO TAXES. IF ONE WISHES SO.
There can be NO private property located within the United States because you NEVER paid for it. You USED Federal Reserve Notes or debt instruments to PURCHASE not buy a home. You have equitable title, NOT legal title. When you purchase "property", you have the right to USE it without liability, ie to be sued without paying for it. The government considers this a BENEFIT and the fact that you used the private credit or federal reserve note means you have CONSENT to accept the benefit subject to the liability. All property located within the jurisdiction of the US is owned by the US government IN trust and has an IRRECUSABLE FIRST LIEN RIGHT UPON IT - since it has not been paid for. This includes the bank account, pension account, car, home, etc. The government has the legal right to confiscate what you think is your property. THAT IS THE LAW!
Even in China which ruled by a communist party people own their house once buy them. In America which pretend to have Economie of market you own everything as your property will be confiscated at any time you are unable to pay properly taxes.
I've often wondered that myself. Even young home owners that have never had children are paying for other children to go to school. This just isn't right. We have no control over our state or federal government any longer. They control us.
When seniors had kids in school, taxes were a drop in the bucket! They should not be paying school taxes. Half the school taxes are wasted by building too many schools, building overpriced stadiums, schooling illegals, and paying for unnecessary curriculums. It is a total joke today compared to long time ago.
Property tax should be ILLEGAL. Not only people can’t afford buying a house but people who have one can’t afford their property tax on their house making everyone a renter. Why would you pay taxes on anything you already bought? Should you pay taxes to have a TV, a Bicycle, a BBQ, a Car? No! It’s an overreach, an extortion, and a crime. The government will tax you out of your own homes, your own cars, your own roads… then you will pay carbon tax and even for existing for using oxygen. I have never seen anything the Government was able to solve, everything they touch is a F* up.
We should be living in the one country in this world where when you pay for it ,you own your house and autos. The truth is you never own anything in the U.S.

Can you rent out rooms? One has to be flexible & adapt if life changes.You will be surprised: learn how to select the right people & give them a nicely furnished room (from Thrift stores) with cheap rent, access to a kitchen, polite landlord, they will stay for years. The rent you are collecting MUST BE just enough to cover the Property Taxes, Insurance & Utilities. Don't try to make more money as a second income, the rooms will be too expensive. You must calculate carefully- just to cover the property expenses is plenty. Impose house rules & give it to possible renters from day one. If they don't pay their rent, after 3 days give them an eviction note, don't wait & let them B.S you with excuses. They can pay half of the rent now than keep looking for more income & eventually will catch up on their payments. I dealt with tenants for 15 years, if you follow my experience you will offset the rising cost of everything. One must be willing to adapt to changes. Good Luck & be brave!
Retired on a fixed income, though recently having to go back to work just to hold on to our family home filled with memories & family history and paid off years ago.

I’m not exactly in the prime of my earning years either these days, But trying to hold on to our home while on the verge of being taxed out of our property. It seems more like Extortion by legalized criminal activity. It’s so wrong …
First of ALL, Property Taxed ARE Unconstitutional! WE the people are suppose to Have the RIGHT to property, We are Not suppose to be RENTERS anymore, But WE AER RENTERS to the REAL OWNERS of the property, the public Servants who have Now become the Public MASTERS! Lets understand this quote, "When Legal Plunder becomes a Way of Life for Those living together in society, in time THEY establish a Legal system to Justify IT, And a moral code to Glorify IT!!!!!!" These Public Masters like school teachers should Not have Carte Blanc over the people who bought a house. Public school teachers should not be paid forever by the homeowners even if these home owners do not use the school systems!!! The home owners are paying These teachers long after They retire even to another lower tax tax, for their pensions! The only reasons WHY the Supreme Court has Not. ruled on the constitutionality of property taxes is because this has NEVER been brought forward, because THOSE that Benefit from these taxes are to powerful and to connected. NO One who thinks they are purchasing a home, should maybe LOSE their house because of rising property taxes the mostly go to these Public MASTERS!!!! These Public Matters are nothing more than PARASITES! SORRRY but this is the way it is.
Yes, they are totally UNCONSTITUTIONAL just like all taxes are. Hopefully soon tho, there will no longer be any taxes except for a flat tax on new items just like it was meant to be many many years ago!!!
In 40 years my property taxes have increased more than 400%, in 1982 my property taxes were $300. per year, now they are nearing $4,000. per year, my income never increased by that amount. Now retired my income is fixed.
My property taxes if broken down monthly is more than my mortgage payment was when I bought it. I get nothing in return but a failing school district. Pure strong arm theft.
Try 8000 a year in a suburb of stinkin Columbus Ohio. And I challenged the county twice about how high they appraised my house. I've got neighbors with bigger houses who are paying 22,000 a year. Mainly for the stinkin schools.
Income producing properties could still be taxed. Just abolish the property taxes for homeowners. This would likely increase the number of owner-occupied properties squeezing out the investors.
The lottery WAS supposed to help schools. Now your property tax is higher because the school rate is so high! People who do not have children should be exempt from paying school taxes on their property tax bill!
The county I live in has capped property taxes at 10%. Typically, the county appraiser arbitrarily appraises homes and commercial properties to the 10% max. I live in an older neighborhood with no new homes being built or available lots to build on to justify the increase land and home values. The county appraiser doesn't compare apples to apples. They go by sales comps and lump all homes in the neighborhood the same as if the home has sold. This is very unfair to homeowners who are not selling their homes. Such a scam they have going! Every year I file a property tax protest, prepare a market analysis, create my strategy for the informal hearing and pray I get a property value reduction. I have received a $10k to $20K value reduction, but guess what the county appraiser does. The next year, they ramp up the property value to the 10% max again. My home is not increasing $30K to $45K every year. It's crazy. People are so tired of the scam.

Same here and we are Senior citizens. Pay school taxes and college school taxes but seniors get locked in meaning the price tax on school taxes don’t go up. Seniors shouldn’t have to pay any property tax at all.
Florida counties don’t have to gut you with local taxes as they do. Most counties also charge impact tax when building a new home. In Clay County Florida it’s $16,000 per homesite then they tax you annually. A home the local government here thinks is worth $400,000 Clay then charges you $6,000 annually. Clay county is a good county as they maintain the roads, provide services, have good schools and provide amenities. The county just south of us charges no impact fee, a 12 year education does not guarantee you can read or write, they have zero services and only the high valued properties pay taxes. I guess you sorta get what you pay for…if you can afford it.
As a Libertarian, I’ve argued these same points for years! With property taxes no one truly owns their homes / land. In effect, it makes us all serfs in a serfdom….. I cannot fathom how so many of our fellow citizens haven’t seen this reality. Taxation is theft.
To be honest, the States that eliminate property taxes might see an increase in retiree relocations. I lived in Texas and saw retired people lose their homes because they couldn't afford property taxes. It was terrible.
Who owns the property is responsible to pay the property tax. Whoever holds the title of the house is the owner of the house. If you finance you property the bank holds (owns )it. You are not the owner until you pay of your loan and receive the title. So the bank should pay it and you should never fully pay it of. :)

One of the benefits of being a disabled veteran is property tax relief. Most states offer a discounted property tax credit, but only about 9 or 10 states offer 100% exemptions for vets whether disabled or not. Check your local tax assessor’s office.🇺🇸
@@robing1549 Don't cry when your property taxes are higher because of all the sweet heart deals, farmers, poor people and the "veterans" get on their property taxes.
Almost 30% of veterans are on some form of disability. many with false claims or disabilities that don't effect their lives. I have 2 family members on disability. On works for the government. He and wife make over 300K a year. Live in a big house. Get;'s $3500 a month and property taxes pait 100%. The other went on disability at 70 PTDS and $3500 a month and a free ride in a state VA home.
When you retire, the property tax and homeowners insurance makes life very difficult. Picking our pockets for 50 years is just not good enough for them. My state has property tax on vehicles, property tax on houses,income taxes, and sales taxes.
The American people should have a vote on what all their taxes go, including income tax. Take 10 % on what is necessary, like army, road constructions, fire departments and police and let the rest be check boxes, if we want to add more for military, we will do it, if we decide to spend more for parks and recreation, local art museum, school or NASA,, we will allocate it.
Exactly it is not just like the Amendment making income tax legal. The founders would be totally up in arms knowing that a direct tax on peoples' property and incomes was made legal by the state.
@@Lexman00 The way they were collect pre 1913 with excise taxes etc... Even increasing the sales tax would be better because it gives the individual control over how much they pay depending on how much they spend. With property taxes it is a forced tax period.
@@Lexman00 They have many other sources of income, not to mention that more taxation only leads to bigger bureaucracy. I agree that the Property taxes should be capped & kept to a minimum depending on current owners income, NOT so much on the property itself.
I truly do not understand how I have to pay someone else taxes on something that is mine and not theirs, My land and in my house is mine why do I have to pay anybody else money, and why do they have the authority to come take what is mine, last I knew that is called theft.
the very least they can do is remove property taxes on the first 500K of real estate each person owns. right now, the US has some the highest property taxes in teh world! lots of countries don't even have property taxes. it's insane that here in the US we pay more than 0.5% or even more than 1%!!!
At least pay a nominal tax for the first 500k value of one’s home and no one should lose their home due to property tax. And no one should be priced out of their home due to property tax either. The USA property tax structure is inhumane and forcing seniors out of their homes in multitude.
Im from Europe originally ( long time)but my parents still there they owns the house and no property tax . Never been. Also , i wanna say thank you for your work and bring so many good guests also they time because we get so many information. I learned a lot about financial and real estate and for that i get out all my dept sold and bought our second house and all in this recession. Unfortunately small peoples have to navigate between those greedy “ big boys” government, banks ec.. but if you educate yourself it’s possible to survive. Thank you again!
We’ve been fed so much bs and I’m ashamed to say I bought into it 20-25 years ago before I knew any better. I know that in Europe, Asia, South America, you pay no property taxes, maybe in some countries a very nominal annual fee to register the property in your name. We were told over here how high their 50% “income” taxes were in Europe, but they forgot to tell us that while they’re high, you get free higher education, free healthcare, retirement benefits, no property taxes, decently priced quality organic foods and meats you don’t pay extra for because they’re “organic”, 2 months vacation per year, the cost of living is in general cheaper until the recent energy crisis forced on Europe, clean streets, cities and countryside, etc. A handful of people have created financial systems over the last 50-75 years meant to plunder the wealth of the citizenry here and I fear we’re in a death spiral at this point that most people don’t realize we’re in. All you have to do is look at the drug addiction, high crime in our crumbling major cities, our shoddy roads and bridges falling apart, etc. Where has all the tax money gone? I think our founding fathers would be rolling over in their graves.
My spouse and I decided to purchase our first home this year. I was afraid if we waited any longer we may never be able to buy so even with a rate of 6% we went ahead and did it. Fortunately we are a dual income household and together we make quite a bit of money. Originally we were going to purchase in Dallas which is where I am from. We also had an opportunity to move to Tennessee as I had an opportunity to start a new business with a longtime mentor of mine. We started our search in Dallas and found a home that we really liked until we saw what the yearly property tax was it was almost $10,000. Meanwhile, we found a home in Tennessee in the mountains on almost 2 acres of land and a yearly property taxes of just under $1500. There was no way I was going to pay $10,000 a year in property tax so we chose Tennessee and I am so glad we did. The Dallas area has lost their minds.
I've got some more bad news for you guys. Since 1789, when the Constitution was first written, the Federal Government has had the power of unlimited taxation. You heard that right. Unlimited taxation! The government can point to anything you "own" call it income and force you to pay taxes on it including potential profits like paper profits on stocks and other financial instruments. But where in the Constitution do the words "unlimited taxation" appear in it? They don't! It's the result of a power grab from politicians on the Supreme Court, Congress and the Executive branch.
I would rather see states eliminate income taxes. That is a compulsory tax that you have no choice on. Then we would have the choice to buy the size home and property we want - bigger home = higher taxes, smaller home = lower taxes. At least that way we have a choice. Also, eliminate the bloat in government. There are people in local government offices that will receive over $100K annually in municipal pension plan payments, plus social security, plus whatever they saved for retirement. For the most part their jobs are easier than private sector jobs. Why should I be paying for their retirement when most people who are paying taxes can barely afford to save for their own retirement? We need to get away from this idea that public service employees deserve significant retirement benefits. Eliminate fat pension benefits, and make them put money away in 401(k) plans like the rest of us.
Income tax is overrated. I moved to no income tax state. They make up for it in other areas. They take tax away from one area, they will just find a different to get the money from you
@@Smuscles7 I live in a state with no income taxes and that has saved me a ton of money. However, it has property taxes that aren't capped by law and sales taxes. I would rather have a much higher sales tax and nix the property tax. In other words, don't tax what I make and the home I live in. Everything else, tax it.
I'm currently in the Golden Handcuff stage of property ownership. Retired with a locked down tax rate. Can't sell and move less I want to do a major downsize.

Property owners are being absolutely suffocated between property taxes and homeowner insurance.
And here is what is totally wrong in reassessing my home value. When you get down to it, my home is worth what someone is willing to pay for it. Do they have a crystal ball that tells them what someone will buy it for? What if it's totally outdated on the interior or in very bad disrepair? They have no way of knowing that. Alls, they know for sure is what I paid for it on the day I bought it. Reassessment should only happen when a property is sold.

People who complain about property taxes need to organize in their area and do something about it. If you really want things to change for the better. Sitting on the sidelines and complaining about it doesn't solve anything for anybody. It's time to start demanding to get rid of property taxes all together. Get in touch with your representatives start demanding they get rid of property taxes all together. We need to put pressure on them to change the laws to make it fair for everybody.

Property taxes are a shakedown. They should be illegal. We never really own anything. This government is too large, too intrusive, and too corrupt.
From federal to local county jobs there are high paying positions that bring nothing of value to taxpayers. In Seattle for example, King County has a bathroom liaison that starts at $106,000 a year. The job description is basically to communicate with the people who clean bathrooms at park n rides. These are not restrooms available to anyone but bus drivers. A simple schedule would eliminate the liaison position. Eventually this liaison may have an assistant, then a clerk or QA position. The umbrella just expands to the point nobody really does anything but collect a check. The socialist expansion needs to stop and be wiped clean. They always claim they’re out of money

I'm sorry for responding here but all the other comments seem to share your viewpoint and I am the opposing viewpoint that people need to hear. Think about it for a second if land costs nothing to maintain we don't want the billionaires buy ALL OF THE LAND WITH NO TAXES SO THE PRICES RISE INFINITELY UNTIL LAND COSTS BILLIONS. The founding fathers thought we should tax land and not income because our income goes back into the economy and that was the idea. Imagine competing with George Soros and Bill gates to buy up the land because If I was a billionaire I would enter a bidding war with all the other billionaires to buy the entire country until there is nothing left. Its crazy that so many people will support removing property tax without putting in the most basic level of forethought into what would happen in a real world situation. Feel free to prove me wrong I believe in free speech and constructive criticism. I think these comments are ignorant and blue pilled into an emotional response before a logical one.

my property tax. melloroos, and association all amont to about 700 a month. It would be swell to move into a place that didn't have associations but every neighborhood in my city does as it used to be farmland and the housing is all less than 20 years old. unless you buy one of the very few remaining old farms (which are not in good shape).
My association does next to nothing. In 10 years they've repainted the houses once and repaved the streets once. there are probably 500 houses in this association and they are all occupied. don't ask me where the money goes. totally mismanaged.
So that said every month I break even. I don't eat out, I don't have cable or any services besides prime (which saves me money in the end due the free deliveries) i eat hamburger and rice for 3/4 of my meals.... and I break even.
If I was not burning 700 a month, I might actually be able to save for my future. I cannot afford to live anywhere else, I can't seem to find a comperable job in another city.
Man am I trying.
feels bad. I have 2 degrees and 15 years experience in tech. I'm working 60 hours a week and im drowning because of taxes and fees. if i could actually bring home most of what i make. I'd have a future. and maybe something to eat besides hamburger.

I've always thought property taxes were a joke. So you buy a house pay it off, you will never own it because you are quite literally renting it from the taxation authority. If you stop paying these theft property taxes, they will seize your home and sell it out from under you to recoup the taxes. The entire tax structure is misused and misguided into paying for other pet projects not intended therefore shorting the intended use causing those original taxes to be increased, rinse and repeat over and over again. This is in large part why the working class pays around 45% of their wages in total taxes. Your total taxes paid should be around 10%.
It's closer to 64 % once you spend it.

Housing is so high, that people who need rentals, cannot afford them. Section 8 housing is backed up 15 year, while elderly housing, is about the same. That’s how Massachusetts is.
The people running the show do well, they grant themselves raises and the people get to pay for it.

Property Tax = Rent
There is No Private Property.
There can be NO private property located within the United States because you NEVER paid for it. You USED Federal Reserve Notes or debt instruments to PURCHASE not buy a home. You have equitable title, NOT legal title. When you purchase "property", you have the right to USE it without liability, ie to be sued without paying for it. The government considers this a BENEFIT and the fact that you used the private credit or federal reserve note means you have CONSENT to accept the benefit subject to the liability. All property located within the jurisdiction of the US is owned by the US government IN trust and has an IRRECUSABLE FIRST LIEN RIGHT UPON IT - since it has not been paid for. This includes the bank account, pension account, car, home, etc. The government has the legal right to confiscate what you think is your property. THAT IS THE LAW!

Why are seniors required to pay local school taxes when they have no children in the schools?
I've often wondered that myself. Even young home owners that have never had children are paying for other children to go to school. This just isn't right. We have no control over our state or federal government any longer. They control us.
someone paid their way when they were young.
Life is much worse for seniors when children are not in schools, jobless, and roaming the streets.
When seniors had kids in school, taxes were a drop in the bucket! They should not be paying school taxes. Half the school taxes are wasted by building too many schools, building overpriced stadiums, schooling illegals, and paying for unnecessary curriculums.

Can you rent out rooms? One has to be flexible & adapt if life changes.You will be surprised: learn how to select the right people & give them a nicely furnished room (from Thrift stores) with cheap rent, access to a kitchen, polite landlord, they will stay for years. The rent you are collecting MUST BE just enough to cover the Property Taxes, Insurance & Utilities. Don't try to make more money as a second income, the rooms will be too expensive. You must calculate carefully- just to cover the property expenses is plenty. Impose house rules & give it to possible renters from day one. If they don't pay their rent, after 3 days give them an eviction note, don't wait & let them B.S you with excuses. They can pay half of the rent now than keep looking for more income & eventually will catch up on their payments.

Our property taxes have skyrocketed big time these past five years to the degree of what a high rent was approx eight to ten years ago. I’m not exactly in the prime of my earning years either these days, But trying to hold on to our home while on the verge of being taxed out of our property. It seems more like Extortion by legalized criminal activity. It’s so wrong …
First of ALL, Property Taxed ARE Unconstitutional! WE the people are suppose to Have the RIGHT to property, We are Not suppose to be RENTERS anymore, But WE AER RENTERS to the REAL OWNERS of the property, the public Servants who have Now become the Public MASTERS! Lets understand this quote, "When Legal Plunder becomes a Way of Life for Those living together in society, in time THEY establish a Legal system to Justify IT, And a moral code to Glorify IT!!!!!!" These Public Masters like school teachers should Not have Carte Blanc over the people who bought a house. Public school teachers should not be paid forever by the homeowners even if these home owners do not use the school systems!!! The home owners are paying These teachers long after They retire even to another lower tax tax, for their pensions!
The only reasons WHY the Supreme Court has Not. ruled on the constitutionality of property taxes is because this has NEVER been brought forward, because THOSE that Benefit from these taxes are to powerful and to connected.
NO One who thinks they are purchasing a home, should maybe LOSE their house because of rising property taxes the mostly go to these Public MASTERS!!!! These Public Matters are nothing more than PARASITES! SORRRY but this is the way it is.
Please listen RUclips Jordan Maxwell he explained about property property we should own. Call. Loadally. Lodio
Yes, they are totally UNCONSTITUTIONAL just like all taxes are. Hopefully soon tho, there will no longer be any taxes except for a flat tax on new items just like it was meant to be many many years ago!!!
The guest is a complete shill.
AMEN.

In 40 years my property taxes have increased more than 400%, in 1982 my property taxes were $300. per year, now they are nearing $4,000. per year, my income never increased by that amount. Now retired my income is fixed.
When it sells, the new owner will pay over 15k
and im sure youll be selling your house of what you paid in 1982???
My property taxes if broken down monthly is more than my mortgage payment was when I bought it.
I get nothing in return but a failing school district.
Pure strong arm theft.
That’s because the value of your property went up 🤦♀️
Try 8000 a year in a suburb of stinkin Columbus Ohio. And I challenged the county twice about how high they appraised my house. I've got neighbors with bigger houses who are paying 22,000 a year. Mainly for the stinkin schools.
Yeah, eliminate property taxes now that Blackrock owns the majority of properties.
Blackrock owns less than 1% of homes and is selling off that asset class.
Where’s your “majority” chart? Lol
Income producing properties could still be taxed. Just abolish the property taxes for homeowners. This would likely increase the number of owner-occupied properties squeezing out the investors.
It could be done by Exempting Family Home Owner Citizens and Taxing Home for Profit Corporations
And price of homes will soar, and nobody will be able to afford to buy a house, except corporations or hedge funds.
The lottery WAS supposed to help schools. Now your property tax is higher because the school rate is so high! People who do not have children should be exempt from paying school taxes on their property tax bill!
The county I live in has capped property taxes at 10%. Typically, the county appraiser arbitrarily appraises homes and commercial properties to the 10% max. I live in an older neighborhood with no new homes being built or available lots to build on to justify the increase land and home values. The county appraiser doesn't compare apples to apples. They go by sales comps and lump all homes in the neighborhood the same as if the home has sold. This is very unfair to homeowners who are not selling their homes. Such a scam they have going! Every year I file a property tax protest, prepare a market analysis, create my strategy for the informal hearing and pray I get a property value reduction. I have received a $10k to $20K value reduction, but guess what the county appraiser does. The next year, they ramp up the property value to the 10% max again. My home is not increasing $30K to $45K every year. It's crazy. People are so tired of the scam.
4th amendment should protect property from being taken.

The middle class is living a lower lifestyle than the poor due to taxes.
I see your point. We are hardworking middleclass. I read somewhere that the difference between the working poor and the welfare poor is like $10k a year. So, where is the incentive to work? For a lousy 10k a year when you could sit at home all day wake up when you want, have a roof over your head, food in your belly, free medical and no income taxes to pay. In fact, at the end of the year. the government will give you a refund for taxes you never paid.
Middle class and you see people who haven’t worked all day with a grocery cart loaded.
That's not the only reason, however.

I sold my house in Pa. 31/2 years ago because of property taxes. I've been living in a camper van since. I never got married and have no children. Why do I have to pay $7000 a year on school tax for the rest of my life. I paid it for 35 years, leave me alone. Not so, it never ends. They should pay me for not having children. I saved the system a ton of money. Extremely unfair. This is a broken system. Strangely enough I'm pretty happy living like this. Still very unfair !
Loved this when I was younger I got rid of my home. I slept in the back of my truck many times when I was out doing boat deliveries, just to save on hotels. I got used to it and started to prefer just falling in the backseat, showering at truck stops and not paying anybody anything.. never felt so free.. I ended up saving so much money I was able to build a giant tech company later. I think for retirement I'm just going to get a towable trailer and keep all my cash..
Exactly. I have not one child ever in their schools systems. Why do I have to pay into it? Makes no sense. Clown world.

I own my home but have to save one hundred dollars a week for property taxes, and the taxes go up every year. I ran into financial problems last year and was threatened to have my home sold out from under me if I didn't pay up. Now, I must pay over $200.00 a week for a home I "own" .

Insurance and property tax is killing florida
Florida counties don’t have to gut you with local taxes as they do. Most counties also charge impact tax when building a new home. In Clay County Florida it’s $16,000 per homesite then they tax you annually. A home the local government here thinks is worth $400,000 Clay then charges you $6,000 annually. Clay county is a good county as they maintain the roads, provide services, have good schools and provide amenities. The county just south of us charges no impact fee, a 12 year education does not guarantee you can read or write, they have zero services and only the high valued properties pay taxes. I guess you sorta get what you pay for…if you can afford it.

As a Libertarian, I’ve argued these same points for years! With property taxes no one truly owns their homes / land. In effect, it makes us all serfs in a serfdom….. I cannot fathom how so many of our fellow citizens haven’t seen this reality. Taxation is theft.
To be honest, the States that eliminate property taxes might see an increase in retiree relocations. I lived in Texas and saw retired people lose their homes because they couldn't afford property taxes. It was terrible.
Property taxes and insurance are devastating to homeowners
Who owns the property is responsible to pay the property tax. Whoever holds the title of the house is the owner of the house. If you finance you property the bank holds (owns )it. You are not the owner until you pay of your loan and receive the title. So the bank should pay it and you should never fully pay it of. :)

Here in Belgium we also have a real estate tax. We even have an inheritance tax upon death.
At least pay a nominal tax for the first 500k value of one’s home and no one should lose their home due to property tax. And no one should be priced out of their home due to property tax either. The USA property tax structure is inhumane and forcing seniors out of their homes in multitude.

My spouse and I decided to purchase our first home this year. I was afraid if we waited any longer we may never be able to buy so even with a rate of 6% we went ahead and did it. Fortunately we are a dual income household and together we make quite a bit of money. Originally we were going to purchase in Dallas which is where I am from. We also had an opportunity to move to Tennessee as I had an opportunity to start a new business with a longtime mentor of mine. We started our search in Dallas and found a home that we really liked until we saw what the yearly property tax was it was almost $10,000. Meanwhile, we found a home in Tennessee in the mountains on almost 2 acres of land and a yearly property taxes of just under $1500. There was no way I was going to pay $10,000 a year in property tax so we chose Tennessee and I am so glad we did. The Dallas area has lost their minds.
I've got some more bad news for you guys. Since 1789, when the Constitution was first written, the Federal Government has had the power of unlimited taxation. You heard that right. Unlimited taxation! The government can point to anything you "own" call it income and force you to pay taxes on it including potential profits like paper profits on stocks and other financial instruments. But where in the Constitution do the words "unlimited taxation" appear in it? They don't! It's the result of a power grab from politicians on the Supreme Court, Congress and the Executive branch.

Also, eliminate the bloat in government. There are people in local government offices that will receive over $100K annually in municipal pension plan payments, plus social security, plus whatever they saved for retirement. For the most part their jobs are easier than private sector jobs. Why should I be paying for their retirement when most people who are paying taxes can barely afford to save for their own retirement? We need to get away from this idea that public service employees deserve significant retirement benefits. Eliminate fat pension benefits, and make them put money away in 401(k) plans like the rest of us.
