Worried about ever rising stupid property taxes.

Reya Ripet

Hi all.

I'm in Alachua county FL, but that's not available in the location options.

So , off course the proposed property taxes bills have arrived. And each has gone up the full 10%.

IMO property taxes are a criminal organization's plan to rob people 'legally' of their property when they can no longer afford to pay .

Look at the world economic forum's slogan 'you will own nothing and be happy'.  And tell me what else they could mean ?

My concern is that I can't just keep raising the rent ?  Do mortgages keep going up as well ?

Or is it not a problem to keep raising rents to cover higher costs ?

I only have two properties and they are my income, so I'm concerned.  

I can't afford to buy a third property atm.  

Thanks

If you say you are worried about “ever rising stupid property taxes”, tenants say they are worried about “ever rising stupid rent”. Things go up, learn to navigate an operate your business adjusting for inflation and other things
