As you detailed I'd say 30% is pushing it. 

It's like the house knows you need the money and something breaks.I happened to have hit financial independence/work optional, but it took 19 years, a couple of live in flips (currently on my 3rd with a wife and 2 kids), paying off my primary home, moving to a lower cost of living area (Houston to Maine), and the sale of a business to push me over the top.

If they do, then you can likely find another tenant for that amount fairly easily, as I would assume the entire town's taxes are up- so if someone really wanted to be in town, that price is the new normal.If your taxes increased that substantially in a C neighborhood, your tenants would way more likely give push back for that type of increase- even though you're not being greedy, you're just imposing the same raise you were given.Often the buyer who had the "well, the numbers are better" mentality is only looking at year 1.
