This is how they steal your home.

They are trying to take their homes

You will own nothing and you will be happy.

I propose a law that states. A homeowner may list the property at any time for sale at the assessed value. If the property doesn't sell for that amount within 6 months the city has to purchase the property for said amount.

Property tax is the biggest scam.

Sue. This is the dumbest error. They are full of bs. How did they make this "mistake" to a bunch of other homes too. Something is not adding up.

Just remember.. If YOU make a mistake on your taxes, you don't get to say "Oops".

Paying taxes to a government that can't manage their own finances and are in extreme debt 🤮

Property tax on anything other than the land is absolutely evil. Taxing the supposed value of improvements shows that we live in a garbage nation ruled by criminals.

They need to get together for a class action lawsuit. Somebody's "mistake" created a lot of stress and trauma in that community. Ridiculous!

$1800 is robbery enough.

The tax assessor should be investigated for gross negligence and fired for not doing a proper job.

Devastating! If he had not contacted the NEWS they would have NEVER taken accountability. This has happened to so many others & it's an intentional scam. Homeowners BE AWARE!

People need to protest about property taxes. Property tax is outrageous. The government shouldn’t tax property. What do they use the money for?
