 I agree. Too bad they won't make an adjustment. They just might see some interest from all of us. 

@Michael Plante - The county numbers were lower than the MLS as you mentioned. This image is from last years numbers.

I love running the numbers to learn the effects they have on a deal.

Tax year: 2016 - Total Value: $86,300

 Excellent idea. Thank you.

 I'll check that out. I was just running number and really thought it would be a decent deal.

 That was a Cleveland Property. LOL.

I was just looking at a property and was amazed that the property taxes are so high!

The house is on the MLS for $56,000 and the taxes are $6460 annually.

Checking past tax amounts showed that in 2011 they were $14,498 for a tax assessment of $41,100. 

I can't believe this! I guess I've just lived in low-tax areas for too long.

I'm just running numbers but wanted to know if you have walked away from properties because the property taxes were so high.

"Someone is being naughty." 

I love it. Such a nice response to a bad situation.

Great job! They look amazing.

I have found many houses that just don't "look" right. 

A few have garages that take up the whole backyard. Others have driveways that don't look like someone could fit an SUV on them.

Walkways to the front door that appears to be 14 inches wide and 60 feet long.

I know some things can be adjusted.

Have you passed on a house that just didn't seem to fit modern lifestyles? Have you invested in a "weird" house and just let the tenants live with it?
