Have you, as a homeowner in Massachusetts, noticed a sudden spike in your property tax bill? I recently experienced an unexpected 21% rise without any prior communication from the local authorities. This abrupt increase is puzzling since wages remain unchanged, making it difficult to manage such extra costs. Can anyone shed light on how the town expects residents to accommodate this steep hike in expenses?
Hey, I noticed a slight increase in my taxes too. I reached out to my town’s assessor, but I’m still waiting for their explanation. Have you asked if it’s linked to a new town budget plan or appraisal revision? What’s been your next step?
The increase you’re encountering appears to mirror what I experienced recently. In my case, a reassessment from the town assessor was the cause rather than a new tax policy. It may be productive to thoroughly review any communications or documents issued by your municipality regarding budget revisions or property evaluation adjustments. I found that scheduling a meeting with the assessor helped clarify the situation. Seeking a better understanding of the reassessment process might offer some clarity and potentially identify any miscalculation in your property’s evaluation.
hey, my taxes went up too. looks like a re-assessment mess; check if they used old data. maybe hit up your local board for a quick chat about device errors in calc’s
