"The taxes were outrageous" and the city was "no help at all" when it came to his tax liability.

Laconia; the residential style building that's been home to the Dewhurst Funeral Home at 1061 Union Ave, directly across from the Servistar Hardware has been sold "partly because it needed a lot of work, including a new roof, and that it was expensive to heat and maintain."

From page 8 of today's January 18 LaDaSun which includes a photograph.

At a selling price of $128,500, that is close to being just 25% of the assessed value of $490,600; how could the City of Laconia be so far off with its assessed value and is such a huge variation now commonly happening in Laconia? It was sold at aproximately 26.19% of its assessed value......my word......good grief......&.....well.....well....well !!!
