New real estate assessment rates are released from State of Maryland

The tax rate is staying the same, but people are mad because their property values have gone up? There's no place in the country where your property tax is not going to increase when your house increases in value. This is a dumb thread.

+1. You all are really unhinged to be attacking Gov Moore because your property values are going up. Truly bizarre.

Maryland's population is increasing.

I live in east county and the county thinks the value of my home has gone up. A similar house in the neighborhood sat for over 2 months before selling way below the assessed value. I bought this house 14 years ago for $500k and my taxes were under $5k. Today they say my house will selll at 900k and my taxes are almost 11k. The recent sale in my neighborhood sold for $695 but was assessed at $810k. County just making shit up.

1. The state assesses your property values, not the county.
2. If you think the assessment is wrong, you can appeal.

We don’t know if the tax rate is staying the same. Funding the MCPS budget increase would require a 10 percent rate increase if no other cuts are made. Keep in mind that even though property values are increasing far faster than headline inflation the county government has still had to increase rates at least once in the past three years.

A lot of people don't seem to know that state government and county government are two different things. Even though their property tax bills specifically itemize by state property tax and county property tax. Maybe they don't actually look at their property tax bills.

OK, but that's not what this thread is about. This thread is about the fact that property values have gone up. People are actually complaining that their property is worth more. I guess they'd rather have stagnant property values.

No, then they would complain about that, instead.

They’ve had to increase tax rates on residential properties because office values have declined significantly in the past four years.

If you don't like it, you are free to leave the state. Personally, I like it when my property value rises

This thread is about residential property values increasing. It's not about tax rates. It's not about office property values. It's about increasing residential property values.

That guy is such an empty suit. Looked so promising, checked all the boxes…. and then we get this.

Hogan is laughing his fat a$$ off at the mess Moore made.

I think he still lives here. He’s just as mad as the rest of us

I heard a rumor he might run for governor again. He has served two terms, isn't that the limit?

Moore would be easy to pick off. He is an empty suit.

Ugh. I guess if that’s our only option. I think if you serve 2 consecutive terms you have to take a bye for 1 term then you can run again.

The language in the constitution says this: SECTION 1. The executive power of the State shall be vested in a Governor, whose term of office shall commence on the third Wednesday of January next ensuing his election, and continue for four years, and until his successor shall have qualified; and a person who has served two consecutive popular elective terms of office as Governor shall be ineligible to succeed himself as Governor for the term immediately following the second of said two consecutive popular elective terms (amended by Chapter 109, Acts of 1947, ratified Nov. 2, 1948; Chapter 161, Acts of 1964, ratified Nov. 3, 1964; Chapter 576, Acts of 1970, ratified Nov. 3, 1970).

I'm not voting for anyone who thinks the constellation Orion is drones.
