Taxes...the ups and no downs.

I am still fussing about my taxes.
I don't understand.

First, they said they were going to
roll back the taxes to 2005 assesments.

Then at the last minute, the State says no.

And BAM, we have a new 2006 assessment.
I don't know what was wrong with the old 2006
assessment they sent out in August.

So here we sit. Same house. Nothing different
about it... and we have to pay on $10,000 more.
As my assessment went up $10,000+ and the
taxable went up the same. From $72,+ to now
$82,100. What the heck is with that?

How did my house increase in value in just
a month and half

Cis you need to call them, they could be going back and collect on the last five years. If they fill that your house was worth what it is now over the last five years then they can go back and collect on that. They did that on my parent after they bought there home in Rathdrum. And they hadn't even owned it for more than a year!!!! But they had to pay the taxes because the accessors never billed the previous owners for it.
