ok here's the abridged version... property tax is assessed by several different sources of data, property values typically go up about 3-4% annually, as a result property taxes go up. However, here's one example of how they might go down: Let's say you buy a POS house in the ghetto that's been abandoned with holes in the roof for $30k but the assessment says it's value is $150k bc the property was never reassessed by the previous owner. You can request a reassessment to determine a new taxable value of the house. In a case like this the property taxes will be lowered unless you're in a small corrupt town or a city ran by a bunch of niggers and you happen to be White. One caveat to consider is when you draw attention to the property the cocksuckers may start issuing you violations which is why investors need to be careful especially if they plan on flipping it in less than a year or two. If you're living in it you also need to be careful they don't raise the tax on you if you request the tax collector jew to reassess it. If anyone has any questions feel free to ask.
