Have you thought about trying to reduce your property tax liability? I came across this article on the CNN money website over the weekend and thought I would share it to those who would like to try and appeal their property taxes in the upcoming year.
In Oregon property tax statements are generally issued near the end of October or beginning of November. Since property values have declined over the past couple years many property owners may have a case for disputing their tax accessed value with the respective county they live in.
According to recent data from the S & P Case Shiller Home Value index prices in Portland are down 15.2% from a year ago.
Good luck!
