Check Your Appeal Dates

This post has to deal with appealing your property taxes and the importance of knowing the appeal dates within your local area.  For example, in York, PA, the appeal date and the proper paperwork to start an appeal can be secured through the assessor’s office where you can pick it up or have it mailed to you.  The due date for starting this process goes until July 31st, 2010.  (Various states and localities vary on this so make sure you call yours and see what the dates are.)

What happens if you do not start this process by July 31st?  You have to wait until next year to set this up.

One of the ideas to keep in mind is this, many people have tried to refinance their homes and found that, due to the sub-prime issue, have seen their property values fall and do not have enough equity to meet the 80% loan to value threshold needed by the banks.  A few years ago, with less stringent bank standards this was not a problem.  Now, with the tightened standards and falling home values, many people are caught in the middle and unable to refinance and take advantage of the lower mortgage rates.

What can you do?  With the Home Tax Guide (www.hometaxguide.com) you can vastly increase your odds of a property tax reduction that will quickly lower your monthly house payment!  But, you have to do this correctly and this is what the guide will do for you, put you on an even footing with the tax assessors who are not rushing out to lower your property taxes.

Self-reliance is truly the watchword here as government on all levels count on people’s ignorance, laziness, too much going on in their lives or any other variety of factors that will keep homeowners over paying in property taxes.  The Home Tax Guide quickly and effectively takes a previously mysterious process and makes it explainable in layman’s terms.

For a very low investment in time, energy and money, you are well on your way to lowering your property taxes and perhaps those of other family members.  It is better to have your hard-earned money with you and your family instead of with a government entity that is overcharging you with this issue!

Be smart, be pro active, do it now and take charge of one of the biggest costs of your home ownership!
