2015 Alton Tax Assessment

jazzman · 08-18-2015, 05:29 PM

Does anyone know if the general tax assessment on Alton properties went up significantly across the board this year?

Mine went up 16%, which is a big "don't care" if they all went up, but a much bigger issue if maybe just Barndoor Island properties went up.

There were a couple sales above current town valuation this year, but then a recent one well below the new valuation.

Ours went up 13%, safe dock up 7.5%

Sometimes sales below value are just a case of how badly the owner wants or needs to sell. For whatever their reason maybe they just decided to not hold out for more.

My house went down $25k and my land went up $25k.
