Indianapolis Property Taxes

July 21st, 2007 categories: Indianapolis Real Estate News

IMG_4926 (3)The property assessment and tax system in Indianapolis is in dire need of an overhaul.

This is a sign in front of many homes I have seen all over the city this weekend, while out showing homes.

I noticed something I find very disturbing. I’m not sure if it was just the areas of town I was showing homes in or if is an actual happening.

These signs were apparent in many of the revitalized areas of Indianapolis. I thought it rather odd. As a city and as homeowners, we take great pride in the revitalized districts around town.

It has taken many years to makes these neighborhoods what they are today. To think all the work accomplished could be undone by the current tax situation is disturbing.

As a Realtor, I am proud to fight for fair and equitable property taxes. I encourage all to let your voice be heard.

There are many solutions being advocated. One I am in favor of is sponsored by Advance America.

You can also start right in your neighborhood with the this petition.

    Paula:

    We have a property tax crisis in Florida, as well…I am working hard to solve that is some way. Great information…the media never tells the true story, so it’s up to us to keep property owners informed!

    Jackie - I have heard Florida property taxes are just as crazy. Good for you, taking initiative. If we want to see change, we must do something. Complaining won’t solve the issues.

    Paula, I just returned from a trip to Denver, and was surprised at how, even in Colorado, taxes are taking a big jump- your community is reacting in positive way that should get attention- how much is too much?
